Ht. 5'2", Start: 192 lb, Today: 200 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 125 lb - now that the summer is here it is going to be hard to lose weight because you are going to be bord but what will help is take a piece of paper and write down stuff you want to do with or with out anyone and check stuff off as you do it. That way you will stay away from the food and be active which will help you gain muscle and lose fat

I know how it felt to gain more weight then wanted to, you know what Tiffani, Lucy has a list on the website here, she has a lot of suggtions, one of is vlounter at a anmial shelter, or do babysiting, course, read a book, go swiming, biking, hiking, walking, running, joging, drink a lot of water, ride a horse if you have one, I recmmand trying a treadmill if you know someone that has one, ask them how to use it, you will burn calories, useing it, you will burn a lot of calories, and you will want to have a water bottle, and a towl, I believe you can do it... Tiffani I believe you can do it... Jump rope, jumping jacks, stretchs, and walk the dog, your friend's dog or the neigbors's dog. Ask your partens permisson, dont be discourged dont give up reaching your goal..
I hope to have helped,

Print out no pig out poster,go outside to do excriseing.. It is fun to be outside when it is nice out. Dance in your room. To your favorite music pamper yourself in a nice warm bathub, bubble bath, do your nails, play with your pets. I have done it many times, it gets rid of my stress..

Hey! Don't be anxious!!! You don't have to lose a pound! If you just stay the same and don't gain a pound, you are doing good, trust me! If you start feeling anxious about your weight, do something that will help you feel better like taking a bath or going for a walk or talking to a friend on the phone, sign up for a club, join a church. All these things are great distractions! So is helping other people so get out there and do some service! Don't stress so much about it ok? Everything will be fine if you don't give up!

Hey I am 6'3 and i used to weight 300pounds. I am now down to 230 and alot is now muscle. It was so hard for me to get down that much but it is alot easyer now. I just ate half of everything and when I was hungry I would drink water or diet soda. For exercise I would hit a boxing bag and play the drums. I know playing the drums is not exercise but you get but it is if you play them hard and fast. So if any of you wanna talk email me at smithy3001@yahoo.com I think I could help...

I do the exact same thing!!! one thing I do when i get a craving for really bad foods is eat fruit. It works really well because the sweetness. Another thing i do if i get a craving is go work out. After I work out I feel really good about myself and I dont want to waste my hard work on bad food. Also what I find helpful is brushing my teeth. After I brush my teeth i dont want to eat anything because my teeth feel really clean. If none of these work try and find something to distract you like a hobby or something you really like to do. you could dance, sew, clean, write, sleep, sing, call someone up, play an instrument, go for a walk, laugh, make something, ect.. Good luck i really hope i helped somehow!!
