Hey! You know what I do? Whenever I see a pizza or some junk food, I say 'Do I want to gain 10 lbs?!' And I won't want it anymore, lol. I don't know, that's just what I do! Hope I've helped...in some way lol.

hiya guys! I have just realized why i cant resist temptations!!! when i see people around me eating junk, or if its just sitting there, i think that if i dont eat it, ill miss out on fun! I dont know why. but can anyone think of a way to help me? I have tried to say to myself "dont worry you wont be missing out" but it never works!

Maybe this will help. Think that junk food is a drug. The same way you would say no to drugs, say no to junk food. Ask yourself, " Is it worth it?". There's no food that tastes better than being thin!

Here's what helps me loose weight.Each week I try to go without eating something (french fries, chips, soda, chocolate, etc). And if I succeed for one week I reward myself with something that's not food (like hair thingys). and if I go another week I award myself with something bigger, and so on. I can honestly say I haven't a potato chip in 6 months (they make me sick just by looking at them). I am going to award myself with a pedicure this weekend if I succeed (which I know I will). So if you have a junk food you can't quit eating this may be a good way.Take CareSarah

Ive found if thats what you really want to do than that should be enough motivation for you. If your finding that its not maybe thats not what you truly want to do? I recently decided to start losing because I want to be a helicopter pilot in the Army, im supposed to be 190 pounds according to my height to be in the army, and ive found that to be lots of motivation. Im still not excersising or eating the best, but its better and i can garuntee you none of my friends would have ever thought id be buying water at lunch instead of soda (I have been, and i was a real soda junkie.) I havnt had a non-diet soda in over a week. And better yet, only one of those was diet, the rest were diet and caffine free. But yea enough about me. Anyway, try to find a different hobby that involves physical activity, there are dance clubs around that go on year round that im sure you could find one you like!

I THINK YOU SHUOLD TAKE ALL THE YAERS THAT YOU WERE OVER WIEGHT AND LOOK BACK AT ALL THE TIMES YOU HAVE BEEN DISCUORAGED ABOUT YOUR WIEGHT OR MAYBE ALL THE TIMES YOU HAVE BEEN TEASED ,IF YOU HAVE BEEN TEASED AT ALL. AND EVERY TIME YOU ARE TEMPTED TO EAT SOMETHING UNHEALTHY THINK OF ALL OF THAT AND IT MIGHT CHANGE YOUR MIND.

Well I got together with my friend over the summer when we decided to lose weight together. We had this whole meeting to work out plan that lasted for a little while but we haven't been so good about it lately :P. Umm but basically I cut down my calories by a lot. Calories are like the key to losing weight. You can have a lot of low cal foods, more than higher cal, i do a lot of research on the calories in foods and serving sizes. And I also wrote down all the reasons that I wanted to diet/exercise which kept my reasons in mind. Basically I was just so sick of gaining weight i really wanted to do something about it, so I did!
