Ht. 4'11", Start: 130 lb, Today: 130 lb, Goal: 100 lb - Last year during the winter I had gone on vacation and been more active so I lost weight but then I came back from my vacation and I got so confident that I had lost weight and I just started to eat again without caring about what was going into my body. Till the summer when one of my friends invited me to the beach with her and I went [This was my first time I was goign to the beach with her] she was wearing a bathing suit and then I saw how flat her stomach is compared to mine.My stomach felt all jiggly and I started to feel bad. Since then I had decided to lose weight but it's been a year from then and if lost nothing. I've tried really hard but I just keep going up. This year is my last oppotunity to lose weight because I'm going to go to high school in 2009 so this is my last year in Middle School.I want my friends to leave with a good thought about me not some bad thought of them thinking I'm chubby. The worst part is that I'm short and that makes it even harder. Please help me!!!

Ht. 5'3", Start: 362 lb, Today: 406 lb, Goal: 120 lb - I'm so sick of this...
I literally haven't a clue how to stop eating. My stomach hirts so bad right now, and yet I'm still eating. Why? I don't even know!
I weight four hundred pounds and I'm just going to keep on getting bigger. I almost think Jeremy has given up. I can't stop eating, and lately he's been trying less and less to get me to stop.
I hate the way I look and the way I feel. I look in the mirror and what stares back at me is huge, fat, bulgy, and gross. And I can barely move because I'm so big. It's so hard... everything is so hard.
And yet I keep eating. I think I probably will keep eating, until one day I explode. Because no matter how big I get, or how bad it hurts, I CAN'T stop. And I can't exercise, because I'm almost too big to move. Exercise is pretty much impossible.
I feel hopeless. Thanks for the suggestions and help, but I'm beyond help. I'm so huge... and there's no way I can stop this. I'm just going to get bigger and bigger. =(

Ht. 5'7", Start: 215 lb, Today: 201 lb, Goal: 150 lb - okay. so here's my plan- I would really really love to reach my ultimate goal of being in the 130's by my graduation from college next may. I would like to be in the 190's (hopefully around 197) by August 5th (about 3 weeks away) for my best friend's wedding(i'm a bridesmaid in it, plus i'm seeing a whole bunch of people i haven't seen since middle school!) and for my vacation with my significant other, AND for the NIN concert I'm going to. I would like to lose another 8-10lbs through August, and get into the 180's (even if it's 185-189) before school starts again (around Sept. 7th). After that, I plan to keep losing, but at a slower pace and really working on putting on muscle and getting fit. If I lose just 5lbs a month after August, I can be 130-135 by the time I graduate! That would be incredible! I would be so comfortable, and i've never been comfortable around my extended family...

That would be incredible! I would be so comfortable, and i've never been comfortable around my extended family (they are very fit and proper and have always hinted at my need to lose weight). Right now i'm trying carb-cycling and have gone down from 207 (after two days of horrible eating) to 201 (my lowest in a looong time!). It's not a low carb diet- only the first week is lower-carb, then I'm supposed to cycle between high healthy carb days and a bit lower (but carbs are still included in this plan) carb days. I'm really excited since it's working so well. of course, a lot of it's water weight because the more sugar you store in your body, the more water your body stores. but i don't care, as long as it's weight and inches gone and not reducing my amount of muscle. what do you guys think? any tips?

Ht. 5'7", Start: 230 lb, Today: 228 lb, Goal: 155 lb - Wow, 2 pounds in an hour workout with Wii Fit. Time flew by! But I'm pretty sure that isn't unhealthy, because people who have an identical BMI lose 10 pounds in a week, and I guess that's what happens when you start to exercise eat right. But yeah, posting my success, as this is the farthest I've ever gotten. I've learned alot about posture, and minute-by-minute, I'm becoming more aware of how unhealthy my body is - and it started with how my posture was. Remember, always sit up straight, you'll get used to it after a little bit. And stand straight, with an equal amount of weight on each foot. Anyways, enough about my exercising, my diet is also going well. I'm not on a strict diet, I'm just eating right and healthy.

Ht. 5'4", Start: 210 lb, Today: 176 lb, Goal: 140 lb - Ok so my binging has gone out of control. Like completely out of control! I feel like I can't control myself. My brain just switches off and I eat everything I see and thats why I hate it when people leave the house and leave me alone and I go to the fridge and just eat everything like a pig. I feel like if I don't stop this I'll be back to where I was and that's the last thing I want! I can't get back to something that horrid! everytime I tell myself to not do it, I binge. It's like I don't listen to myself. It just happens like a reflex and I can't stop it. So I'm going on a 2 day fast (starting today) because I need to control myself and if I can control myself for 2 days I'll feel like I can do anything. I feel like I'm obsessed with food and I just have to complete this fast in order to get my mind straight and realize that food shouldn't be able to control me. I can control myself....

It's all about brain power and willpower. I will succeed. Don't worry this fast will go no longer than 2 days. I know people who on 30 day fasts and those are so dangerous, they don't eat a single thing. I'm just doing it 2 days to prove to myself that I don't have to be eating every single sec of the day. I have to get my binge under control because that's whats made me gain the 18 lbs over the past year. Wish me luck, please guys. And good luck to you alll (view less)

Ht. 6'0", Start: 226 lb, Today: 197 lb, Goal: 165 lb - Lost a pound. Not what I was hoping for but better than gaining or sticking. I'm trying to implement more fruits and veggies into my diet not just for weightloss but for added health. I'm actually trying not to destroy my body. I've also decided that I'm not going to fixate on weightloss so much because I think I'm pretty healthy at this weight. I went to the doctor and he said that while I'm not in the prescribed "healthy weight range", that I'm still healthier than most because my bodyfat percentage is at the low end of average. I don't know...I'd still like to be thinner though. Currently I'm a size 10 dress and I feel like if I got to 165 I'd be a 6...I don't know if I'd like that on a 6' frame but whatever. I want to atleast get down to 178 because that's a healthy range of weight for me. Good luck to everone else with your goals.

Ht. 5'7", Start: 182 lb, Today: 182 lb, Goal: 130 lb - I know you've probably heard it before, but I really think frozen fruits are the way forward! I love to freeze grapes and bananas and they taste so good, and you can reach for a frozen grape at any time of day not worry that you're eating too much! I had my first full day of no junk food all because I was eating frozen fruit instead, and I really enjoyed it! Its especially good in summer cause it cools you down :)

Ht. 6'0", Start: 226 lb, Today: 198 lb, Goal: 165 lb - Right. So tomorrow is weigh in and I have mixed feelings. I've been taking this hydro cut, working out, and trying very hard to eat right. I'm nervous though because I'm worried I haven't lost anything and that will be discouraging. I've decided to try and incorporate more fruit and vegies and less carbs into my diet. So today I had: 2 packets oatmeal, plain bagel with strawberry cream cheese, apple with small amount of caramel, pbandj, small salad, 2 30 calorie meringues. I hope I didn't way overdo it. I exercised today doing my crew workout piece which was 35 minutes continuous (today was light I believe) and I worked which involves walking around, standing, and climbing stairs. I hope I didn't gain anything. Even one pound lost would be good and I'd feel heck of a lot better.
