Ht. 5'1", Start: 180 lb, Today: 180 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 100 lb - Ok so my friend as you can see is out of control obese and just looks so bad. For her sake I'm trying to help her. Unfortunately though whenever I tell her she should lose weight she gets all embarrassed and doesn't respond. I've tried every way to tell her. From you're looking a bit heavy today to your a bit too big for that outfit to you don't really need that cheeseburger. I even tried a talk at my house. We were relaxing in my basement and I told her I could see her belly hanging out. She got embarrassed and covered it up. I then told her that it looked a little bigger than it should and if she feels the need to cover it up it probably is. I then suggested she lose a little weight. She got all quiet and red but I really feel like I needed to help her so I told her how much better she'd feel and that the guys would like her more, and just that she'd be healthier, but she looked embarrassed and didn't respond. What so I do? How can I help her? What do I have to do to get through to her?

Anything that fits my belly is way too big everywhere else, and anything that fits everywhere else exposes my belly ;( I'd really like to wear some nice clothes, but nothing fits me!

I figure that it does not matter how many calories you get each day as long as you are getting the fruits, vegetables, grains, proteins, and dairy that you need. I just want a second non-bias opinion

Ht. 5'5", Start: 187 lb, Today: 167 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 125 lb - Does anyone have any advice about overcoming weightloss plateaus? I've been off track for about 2 months because i wasn't seeing results as fast as i hoped to. I need some help involving motivation and temptation. When i see a food i like and i know its bad, i eat it anyway, but then regret it! Its so frustrating, so if anyone has some tips they would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
