I was out of breath just simple thing doing stairs I could see my feature of going to 300 or 300+ lbs mark or worse 500 lbs. it scared me I reflcuted how my grandma's side of family who were at 300+ or more its was horrible they weren't able to sit on the chairs special chairs were provide just for them. that made me think do I want to end up like that? even at times do I want to end up in bed bound?

Ht. 5'3", Start: 230 lb, Today: 230 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - Me being overweight began when I was only 9 years old. My mom married my stepdad, had twins & I began to become very depressed. I started gaining weight nonstop. My stepdad would offend not only me but my mom & sisters. He would call us fat, balloons, pigs... In order to cope with his offensive comments, I would eat anything I could find. By the time I reached 6th grade I was already 145 lbs. I was introduced to french fries, brownies, pizza bread, chips, & soda. I was never really teased about being overweight. My friends were all overweight. I was actually considered "skinny" when I hung out with them because they were "bigger" than me, but I didn't feel skinny. By the time I reached high school I was 170 lbs.

My weight stayed at 170 lbs until my junior year when I no longer had gym class. Between Junior and Senior year I gained 60 lbs. My uncle passed away during my Junior year and I gained a little more weight. For prom, I went on a diet and lost 10 lbs. in a month. I only did this because my 4 year crush asked me to prom. I did it for him hoping he would notice & ask me out, but he didn't. I felt so dumb... During Summer Vacation after graduating High school, I took a trip to Italy & Spain & lost 15 pounds in the 3 weeks I was there. There was a lot of walking and going up and down stairs. I came back weighing 215lbs. I am now a sophomore in College and back up to 230 lbs. I have tried to go on diets, work out, and even starve myself, but nothing has worked. I am almost 21, still overweight, & still crushing on the same guy I went to prom with. I want to be at a healthy weight, but I don't know how to stick to working out or eating healthy. I feel like guys don't take interest in me because I am overweight and fat. A few hours ago, I was eating dinner & I sat on a chair and broke it. This was my breaking point, and the embarrassing part was that my stepdad and my whole family saw me and started laughing... at me. I was embarrassed, ashamed, humiliated... I broke down... How do I deal with this? :( (view less)

It's absolutely ridiculous for a seventeen year old to look like I do. All my friends are shorter and WAY skinnier than me. How can I look the least bit attractive when I look huge compared to whoever I'm around? I'm tired of living like this. I eat, honestly, because I'm bored, or to satisfy cravings. I don't drink soda or juice, but being the "country girl" I am, I drink lots & lots of sugary sweet tea. I also drink a lot of water. But I'm not changing & only getting pounds larger since I was about 7. I've always wanted to be that cute country girl that every guy wants. Living in the city, but also having a house in the country, there's not many down-to-earth country girls around here. I have the personality and the love for all ... (view more)Hello.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 150 lb, Today: 150 lb (BMI %tile: 92), Goal: 125 lb - I always knew I was one of the bigger kids in school. Because I am short and chubby. But I never thought it was that bad until I recently hit 150. Now I'm always feeling like crap and lash out on my parents for no apparent reason. And I don't want to tell them that my weight is the reason I'm depressed. I have many friends who eat whatever and whenever they want and don't gain an ounce. It just frustrates me. Is there anyone out there who is feeling this or has triumphed this and can help me!

Ht. 5'5", Start: 244 lb, Today: 178 lb (BMI %tile: 93) - I was always big boned but every year I was gaining more and more weight drastically. People were always telling me I had a pretty face but I knew I didn't have a pretty body. I was so self conscious and in denial about my own wight at the same time. I knew that I was big but I didn't know I was as big as I really was. I would eat whatever I wanted whenever i wanted. Food was comfort to me and I saw that my friends were eating what I was and they weren't gaining a lb. I finally decided in febuarary that it was time to change my life around. I have lost 66 lbs since I started my weightloss journey and I am still going. I exercise 5 to 6 times a week and do tons of cardio along with weight training. I used to barely be able to run a 10 min mile and now I am running a 7 min mile. I eat lots of vegetables and fruits and cut out a lot of processed foods. Exceeds and eating healthy and you will be along your way. There isnt a better feeling then putting on old shirts and shorts and having them slide off you bc they are so big :)

Ht. 5'3", Start: 165 lb, Today: 165 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 130 lb - I feel like I've been overweight my whole life. I know that it's become a problem and I need to get it under control, but for some reason I don't believe I can do it. It sounds odd, but I can't picture myself ever being at a healthy weight. Being overweight is all I can remember, so I continue my bad eating habits in hopes of sustaining my weight. I am a social eater and I eat when I'm bored, so it seems like there is no way to avoid my food problem. I've laid out nutrition plans for myself, but its like my mind won't let me believe that I will lose weight by sticking to them. I've lost 5 or 10 pounds at a time, but always gain it all back, so I can't picture experiencing real, visible results.

I only eat fast food and drink up to 6 cans of soda a day, and have for as long as I can remember.
