Ht. 5'7", Start: 215 lb, Today: 203 lb, Goal: 150 lb - omg. okay- i just read the most incredible book. i'm still happily crying. the reason i wanted to share it with you guys is that it's interlaced with emotional eating and using it to kind of hide from the world, but that the main character breaks free from it slowly throughout the book and undergoes this amazing transformation into herself- although it's not all about that at all. it's aptly titled "the Sugar Queen" incase you all want to read something really fun and easy, but still get emotionally invested and kind of feel yourself go through her transformation.

Ht. 5'4", Start: 160 lb, Today: 160 lb, Goal: 130 lb - I have hit an all time low. I was visiting my grandmother and she told me i looked to be about 4 months pregnant! She was sitting next to me on the couch and I was so self consious, so I was sucking in my stomach. She took her hands and was still able to grasp 2 big handfuls of belly fat and said, "you need to be doing situps. once you put the weight on, its hards to take it off." then she started grabbing my arm and leg fat. i pretended not to care, but i did. later i saw her trying on my shorts and she said, " look at this. i am a grandmother and i can fit into these." i need to lose weight. HELP ME!

I wanted to lose 15-20 lbs by Sept 1 but I haven't even lost 1 lb yet! at this rate...I don't see my goal happening :( I wanted to go back to school in good shape and with confidence. This is taking so damn long and I know weight loss is a gradual process but honestly. I hate this. I just feel like ripping my head off! and yesterday was bad..I didn't do my 4 miles and I ate an extra meal (a sandwhich) which I shouldn't have but I just felt like it. But I squeezed some dancing time in because I Knew I had to get some work out done. I've been been feeling very unmotivated lately and the dead scale just makes it 50000x worst :( I sound like a whiny little girl I know but I had to vent.

Not to mention, the callous on my feet has gotten worst and I can hardly walk or workout because I peeled the dead skin off and now it burns like helL! also my neck hurts from the back and everytime I move it. I'm like breaking literally and emotionally. This reeks so bad! feels hopeless. (view less)

Ht. 5'5", Start: 184 lb, Today: 178 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Sorry I forgot to post yesterday but let's just say I was doing well until I had a light caramel mocha frappuccino from Starbucks. With whipped cream! :( However, I did do yoga in the morning and by the time I went to bed my whole body, mostly my legs, were so sore I felt like I had run a marathon. So that must count for something, right? I hope so...Anyways, I'll try to post later so toodles!
