Ht. 5'3", Start: 210 lb, Current: 210 lb, Goal: 175 lb - Okay so I haven't posted a bulliton for a while. But the last time I was on here was probably a year ago, I was about 205, during the summer, I was 191, but then when school started a gained weight and now im 210 [about]. Maybe its from all the stress? I mean, I have a boyfriend, and I always notice him looking at other girls at school, and they have great bodies, obviously. I just really want to be healthy, for myself mostly, and also for him. I know my weight shouldn't matter in our relationship, right?? or should it,, idk tips.. but knowing the fact that he is like 130 lbs, upsets me, is reality, i should weigh less than him.. One of my weaknesses is hot cheetos, im addicted to them, litterally. I eat them almost everyday. Also, once i start munching on something, its hard for me to put it down, even if i am full. Any ideas or tips? Much appreciated [:

Ht. 5'6", Start: 184 lb, Current: 182 lb, Goal: 145 lb - Hi! This is my first post on Blubber Busters in...uh...gosh, it's been so many centuries I can't even remember! Anyway, I've returned because I am disgusted with my life. See, I started off at 184 lbs in Feb. of 2006. I bought The Diet for Teenagers Only, an amazing book, and began to turn my life around. I got as low as 164 lbs in May of 2007, but then I had some really awful family tragedies during the summer, and my stress level skyrocketed. I started relying on food for comfort and at night I'd feel awful about my life AND diet and would bawl for an hour before falling into a unrestful sleep. I started waking up late and not feeling refreshed, and as the pounds crept back on I began to "let myself go." I didn't bother getting manicures or make my hair look nice anymore because my...

I started waking up late and not feeling refreshed, and as the pounds crept back on I began to "let myself go." I didn't bother getting manicures or make my hair look nice anymore because my confidence was at an all-time low. Then. this month, I desperately bought a copy of "Body+Soul" Magazine in hopes of finding some help and after reading some of the most inspiring articles in my life felt as though someone had slapped me on the face. Hard. What was I doing sitting around moping, clogging my arteries and loosing my flexibility? Enough was enough! I realized I'd had the wrong attitude all along; I'd been to arrogant to ask for help, and as a result when hard times hit my progress backfired. Never again, I vow. Mid-terms have just ended and I'm starting to re-read my precious "food bible". Today I did Pilates for the first time in about 7 or 8 months and barely winded through it. So I've come here to keep me motivated to do my best every day. My birthday is next month, and I really want to weight at least 175 lbs by then. This year, my birthday resolution is to take a more positive outlook on life, appreciate what I have, learn to respect my body, and get in good shape for the rest of my life. This is my story, and I hope all of you will find lots of success! Good luck! :P (view less)

Recently ive noticed that i had started to binge (only did it twice). It worried me because i didnt want it to become a habit. Losing weight is a learning process whether your trying to stop emotional eating, learning what to eat and what not to eat, learning portion control. Its all one big learning process that we have to get through day to day in order to be healthy. Basically, i forgave myself for my binges but i pledged that i would never do it again.

The most important lesson i have learned during this lifestlye change is learning to forgive myself. What are some of the lessons you have learned?? (view less)

Anyways it was real tempting to not eat anything today to make up for yday but ive decided that nope im doing this properly which means 3 meals a day so heres today- EXERCISE 40 mins on eliptical (burned 1000cals) BFAST- porridge m/w 2% milk = 160 cals, LUNCH- brown turkey salad roll =350, dinner- bowl homemade soup + chicken, potatoes, carrots and broccoli = 1000? so in total 1600 cals max. Anyone else have problems with bingeing? (view less)

My child is teased all the time at school and has terrible self esteem issues. When shes depressed she eats and when she eats she gets more depressed because the fact that she ate that, meant she put on more weight. We dont have any junk food around but she will stuff herself on apples and 100 calorie packages. Its not healthy at all. We also have no idea what to do exercise wise. Shes 5'10 and weighs 250. Please help, I want to put an end to her depression.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 195 lb, Current: 193 lb, Goal: 145 lb - After my parents divorce several years ago, I coudn't find anything to do but eat. After realizing how much weight that I gained, I realized that I needed to lose weight. This is almost impossible for me to do..and i truly need motivation. I do winterguard which doesn't really burn very many calories, since we only practice a few days a week, but I want to be healthy, and im tired of being called fat everytime i turn around. I just dont know what to do.

I think thats what I am going to do! Peace. <3

Ht. 5'4", Start: 251 lb, Current: 249 lb, Goal: 151 lb - Well, I havent been doing really well on my diet lately, and I havent really been counting what i eat, but one thing I haven't drank is soda. The only thing I drank that was soda was about a cup of Dr. Pepper, and it almost made me throw up knowing I was basically drinking pure sugar, so that's all the soda I've drank in exactly 13 days! :DD I used to drink it every day! Oh well good luck everyone. Tomorrow is a new start for me, Im going to excersize good and eat really well! ♥ Tips or anything are helpful!!! <3 bye.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 215 lb, Current: 215 lb, Goal: 165 lb - Ok my name is Maria. I have been over weight since I was in 5 grade. My family always made fun of me. I didnt have any friends for my first 7 years of school. I am hearing impaired. I am very shy in front of a lot of people. Lately I am accepting who I am and started loosing up. I have more friends than I ever had cause I am starting to get a sense of humor and talking to people. I used to let the people come to me but now I have gotten better at it and started going to other people. I kinda do have confidence problems. I have difficult situations at home. I eat cause I am depressed and bored most of the time. That is the only reason why. I need to loose at least 50 pounds. I skateboard and everyone who saw me skate say I am really good and if I loose a lot of weight I could be a pro skater cause I am really good. Expecially for a fat girl. So yeah. I need to loose weight and I am going to do whatever I have to.
