Hi everybody. I just found a sight that I'm really excited about and I think you all should try it. It's www.workoutplan.com. It's a free sight where you can plan work outs according to you, you can also get the exercises they give you on your customized plan. I hope you all will at least try it. Please let me know what you think of it by replying to this message.

High School is great. It's also scarry. And whatever weight you are, if you think you'll be a great cheerleader, do it. But there will be A LOT of speculation. And that doesn't go away with the fat you burn. Being skinny doesn't make you popular. And many people are popular because they are mean. Try to focus on being a good student, eating healthy, exercising, having fun, and concentrate on where you will be once you're out of High School.

I wiegh 145 lbs and im 5'5', even though it doesn't sound like a big deal, i look huge, with fat everywhere. Im sick of being depressed about my wieght and not being proud of my body. I see georgeous girls with flat stomachs and perfectly shaped bodies, and i feel worse wishing i could look like that. Im trying to change that, i guarantee that no one, absolutely no one, will lose wieght if they don't work in the inside first, and how they feel about themselves, and how they act. My goal is to wieght 125 lbs. I think the wrong thing that any of you could think is that its about how you look, to much attention is being payed to looks, and thats not whats important. You should like yourself and love yourself first, and want to lose wieght to be more healthy or just to become a better person than you already are...good luck girls, i rooting with ya, hope to reach my goals!

I got the video that has kickology and a full workout that is about 20 minutes longs. Anyone of the videos will work. I love doing taebo. Go to www.taebo.com if you can't find the videos anywhere else. You should also read the testimonials (tae bo heros). Good luck!

I hope to make some friends from the blubber busters. I have never had a friend. Im extremly fat for my age. Im only 14 and weigh 205 pounds. Im very sad. I dont have any sucess stories, only sad ones. I tried playing sports a few years ago, but was benched all the time, i quit sports after the bench broke from my weaight. It was very embarresing. Ive been called every name, including fatty, fatso, big bertha, bertha, hog, pig. One of my teachers called me bertha b/c she thought that was my name from hearing other kids call me that. Once i fell in the cafeteria and needed 6 teachers to come help me up. Thats when i quit school with no friends. Im too fat for clothes, ive turned to spandex. I think im too fat for life. I hope blubber busters can help me and maybe ill make a friend. Please talk to me, im lonely and fat :'(-Pam(14/205lbs)

Hey yall, its after X-mas and the damage has been done, man-i know i strayed from my diet, but you can't give up, i know its hard, after the x-mas sweets, cakes, turkey, and stuffing its hard to convince yourself that you have a chance to lose it again or at all. Find your motivation, my motivation, which helps me stay on track is to remember the guys who treated me bad, or made fun of me, and how when i lose the wieght, go right up to them and show them up, and pick another guy instead of them. I think about coming all skinny and beautiful and those stupid guys saying thier sorry and then not giving them a chance. That motivates me to excercise and drink water, and eat healthier, so i can lose the 20lbs i wanna lose. I wiegh 142lbs, i wanna do what it takes to lose this 20lbs pounds and be a size three. Well, good luck guys, wish me luck.

Being overweight is not what you may think. People, skinny people, tell us to loose weight. Did they ever think that we might not know how to? Sure, calorie counting, excercise. But for most of us, we're kids. We don't know what it's like to be skinny. We have been fat since, well, forever.We don't know what to do. We want to be liked for ourselves, but some people can't see past the large sizes we wear or our weight. Others sympathzise that oh, we're poor fat people. We're strong because places like this web site make us strong and make us think that we're not the only ones being made fun of. We're not the only ones that, no matter how hard we try, just can't seem to lose weight. And it's places like this that help us not give up on slow days and keep going.

I could have done this by myself, and if i did i would probably 180 pounds right now. But i believe that the most powerful Weight loss tool is group support. It keeps you going and encourages you not to give up. I hope anyone who wants to lose weight will consider being in a support group because it is the best thing you can do for yourself. I still have a way to go (my goal is 130 pounds) but without the help of my peers, I would not be where I am today. (view less)

I'm 5'4 150lb. I've read some of the post here from skinny people trying to lose weight and it rely makes me angry. I have a little stomche myself but I don't care not every one has to look like super modles. So I say if you're not in real need of weight loss you need to go eat a candy bare and stop worrying about how you look.

Hi,i'm Alina, and I have been overweight all my life. I suffered a two year bout with Bulimia, and coming out of treatment, I realize the importance of a healthy diet to help lose excess pounds. I am 30 pounds overweight, and I'm ashamed of my belly rolls of fat, and disgusted by my pigging out. I really need a diet buddy for support.Any takers?
