Ht. 5'9", Start: 605 lb, Today: 605 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 200 lb - So hi guys I'm new and need help. I have gained a lot. I am massive like can't get up unassisted, my stomach hangs to almost my knees. I have a huge tyre of fat round my middle that hurts cause it hangs so heavy. I can't fit through some doors and I eat constantly. I sometimes have trouble breathing and can't walk more than 20 metres without having to sit down. I take up 2 chairs and still hang over the edge. I'm scared that soon I won't be able to move cause I'm not too far off. Help

I am flat chested and pear shaped, i keep trying to lose weight but nothing is working. Am i doomed to wait for it to just go to it's respected areas of weight placement?

Ht. 5'4", Start: 171 lb, Today: 153 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 110 lb - Hey! So my sister and I are starting our weightloss plan tomorrow. (Not today because of my dental work and all I can eat is mashed potatoes and vanilla pudding :( ) Riding my bike 1hr a day and doing step ups 40 minutes a day while lifting 5lb weights, will have my arms toned around June (YAY!). Call me crazy but I really like exercise. It not only makes my body healthy, it also makes me handle things better and have a positive outlook on life.
My sister weighs about the same as me and we want to each lose 37 pounds before school starts in August and then additional weight after that.
My mouth is killing me! I gotta go.
Thanks for all your support, your really making a difference.

Ht. 5'4", Start: 147 lb, Today: 143 lb (BMI %tile: 86), Goal: 125 lb - Not all of this advice is mine but I did write some. So here are 9 tips on losing weight. Thanks.
1. SNACK, BUT SMARTLY
Everyone loves snacks, but don't try for your everyday chips or cookies. Try a fruit salad.
2. TURN OFF THE TV
Looking at the TV or IPod or any electrical device can add the pounds, so instead go to the park, mess around with friends like you did when you were little
3. STEP ON THE SCALE DAILY
If your regular weight increases several days in a row, it's a red flag letting you know you need to cut back a little or beef up your workouts slightly.
4. SCULPT THREE TIMES A WEEK
Doing 5 minutes each of push-ups, lunges, and squats (in 30-second intervals) will help build and maintain muscle mass. The more muscle you have, the higher your metabolism will be, so you'll torch more calories as you go about your day.

5. REACH FOR YOUR CELL
If you want to hang out with friends and you call them walk around a little while your on the phone with them. I pace naturally while talking on the phone. It helps with the exercising
6. EAT A BIG, BALANCED BREAKFAST
An a.m. meal made up mostly of carbs and protein with some fat keeps blood-sugar levels steady and hunger pangs away so you're not susceptible to pigging out come lunch, studies show. Opt for something satisfying for your stomach and taste buds — like egg whites and turkey bacon with whole-wheat toast.
7. HAVE FRUIT TWICE A DAY
Fruit has no fat and is mostly water, so it'll fill you up while leaving less room on your plate (and in your stomach) for high-cal fare. Don't freak about fruit's carb count — we're talking the good kind of carbohydrates that contain lots of healthy fiber.
8. STAY ASLEEP LONGER
Getting to bed just 30 minutes earlier and waking up 30 minutes later than you normally do can help you make better food choices, because your well rested. Also, when you're well-rested, you're less prone to snacking out of fatigue or stress.
9. VISUALIZE YOURSELF THIN
When you feel your willpower breaking, conjure up a mental picture of yourself when you look and feel slim. The visual motivation keeps you focused on your goal weight. (view less)

Ht. 5'7", Start: 170 lb, Today: 170 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 140 lb - Hey I weight 170 pounds. It stinks, I hate it and I really want to lose 30 pounds I just don't know how. My weight has always been up and down my whole life. 3 months ago I weighed 172 lbs and it scared me because that was the highest I had ever been. So I started eating healthy and excersising and i actually lost 20 pounds then I got sick for a week and I slacked off and after that it was eat everything. Now I am back to where I was before I don't know how to stop.

He has had a history of being kind of an asshole in front of his friends but most of the time I just look past it - you know, whole male dominance crap...blah blah "look how cool I am." Whatever. Well tonight, I jokingly called him a fatty because he was eating food I had made for a party tomorrow. I said JOKINGLY, "Don't eat the food, ya fatty."

My brother has never had weight problems so there's no reason for him to be sensitive about the subject but he knows that I've struggled with weight for years. Is he really so inconsiderate that he doesn't notice that I'm insecure enough as it is? My mom asked me why I was so mad, and I told her what happened then my dad went and yelled at him, and he came and apologized...wasnt very genuine but for him to get past his pride and do that was rare. I don't want it to be weird now, because he usually stays mad about these things for a couple days...I just wish he knew not to say things like that to me or to anybody. I'm trying so hard to lose weight and get healthy and I don't know how to explain it, it's like when I hear things like that I just wanna go eat....i haven't luckily, I'm just writing this post to vent...I dont know what to do anymore.
