Ht. 5'2", Start: 208 lb, Today: 207 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 136 lb - So, I just had a talk with my parents and it basically made me feel like crap. I was talking to my mom about how I have to pass 4 out of the 5 fitness test in order to pass 9th grade P.E and then my dad walks in and he's like 'you got to get on that treadmill' and my mom was like 'no she's sick' and then went on to say i need to eat healthier and start working out. And my mom has these unrealalistic dreams of me wearing a bikini by june and stuff. And I was just like omg, dude, that's never going to happen. And my dad said 'it doesn't matter, you're fine the way you are, i just want you to be healthier' and i started to get all teary eyed and just wanted to run away. and then my dad hugged me and i was all like 'i'm not going to cry, i'm not going to cry' so then i run upstairs and my dad was like i love you and i was like you too. and then I came up stairs and started like bawling....

After that I went online and looked up my BMI and it was very depressing to be classified as obese. So then I found out if I were to be 136 pounds I'd be at the a healthy weight. Then I started thinking how many months I have til I have to do the fitness testing and that's in 2 months, there is no way I can lose 71 pounds in 2 months. So I'm thinking maybe if I lose weight I could run the mile in a better time, I need to improve by 3 minutes. I do it in 12 now and I need to do it in 9 so if I work out then maybe I could do it. Anyways, so I think I can lose 70 pounds by June or July. Maybe August. My plan is to exercise for two hours everyday, ya know, walking, jogging, all that cardio stuff. And I'm going to eat fruit 4 times a day; 8am, 10am, 12am, 2am, and then for dinner I'm going to have sometype of vegetables and protein. And LOTS of water through out the day. I'm totally giving up junkfood and breads. I'm taking vitamins too so I get all the nutrients. I'm going to work really really hard, so I hope it works out. I'm not going to give up like I used to. I'm so going to stick to it. Lol, well thanks for 'listening'. (: (view less)

Ht. 5'3", Start: 180 lb, Today: 175 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 135 lb - I've figured out my problem. I'm a binge eater. Seriously. When I start eating, I can't stop. I just eat eat eat eat eat untill my stomache can't tae it anymore. I'm not even hungry when I do this.
Its a real problem. And I'm fixing it starting right now. Hopefully you guys can help me do this. This is a great site, and I could seriously make some good friends here. Having someone to talk to that has the same problem makes you more motivated and its something that you can do together.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 170 lb, Today: 170 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 130 lb - Hey guys. So far today I am doing really well! For breakfast I had a glass of milk and 2 hard-boiled eggs. For lunch I had a salad with the following inside: 1 hard-boiled egg, 2 tbsp. tuna (my special recipe), crumbled bleu cheese, croutons, almonds, cut up chicken, and 1g carb salad dressing. If I say so myself, I am a great salad-creater! Yesterday I walked for 40 minutes and today I'm going bike-riding + walking. I have my period though I'm gonna slow down the pace a wee bit... *_* LOL.

Ht. 5'3", Start: 205 lb, Today: 203 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - So I'm really upset with myself right now. My mom works at a gym and is a manager/aerobics instructor/personal trainer and I always feel so huge next to her. And I do go into the gym a LOT, but I don't feel like I'm getting results. And I think it's because of my eating habits. Now, you can guess, with my mom being a gym freak, she eats REALLY healthy, so we don't have a lot of junk food around the house. But I over eat, and I definitely eat when I'm bored. I used to do weight watchers and I got down to about 155, but that was like 2 years ago, and I have since put on almost FIFTY POUNDS! That is insane! I want to get back to weight watchers, but it is so expensive! I think I just need to save up and do it? Anybody else with me?!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 169 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 145 lb - ahh it feels good to be in the 160's again!! after a full week of dieting strictly i finally lost a pound, but honestly, i think i lost 2, because i may have been at 171 when i started (i was 174 from water weight and lost that in a few days, then i was stuck at 171 for a few days, and so on) either way, 160s woohoo lol i cant wait to get down to 165, thats my lowest weight ever, i was 166 this summer but i lost those couple of pounds the wrong way (too busy to eat much) and i gained it back. served me right though. my first mini goal though is 164. i'll finally be at the very high end of the "normal weight range". NORMAL!!! ive never been normal, all my life ive been overweight. i cant imagine what itll feel like :) anways enough rambling, keep up the good work guys, and good luck !

Ht. 5'2", Start: 170 lb, Today: 170 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 130 lb - I am so motivated right now, and I wanted to share that feeling with you all! I just found out about this pill (keep reading, I'm not crazy) that is made from the Acai (ah-sigh-ee)berry. The Acai berry is packed with nutrients and antioxidants and such. I have found tons of weight loss stories that happened because of it! Wait...you probably have too. You've probably seen that it's EXPENSIVE. But I found it for $15 at GNC today! Yayyy...gonna talk to my dad about that. =)
How's everyone today?

Ht. 5'3", Start: 180 lb, Today: 180 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 135 lb - I've been overweight ever since I was in 4th grade. I have constantly been trying to lose weight since then. The only thing that kinda worked was weight watchers. For a couple months. Then I started getting un-motivated and I gained 20 pounds. I've gained 20 more pounds since then and I'm so embarrassed. None of my friends are fat, and I just feel so out of the circle when I'm with them. They've all had boyfriends and such, and no guy has ever looked at me in that way. My dad made me join weight watchers again and I lost 4 pounds. But then again I got un-motivated and gained 6. I don't know what to do anymore. I'm just eating eating eating ALL the time and I don't know how to motivate myself to stop. I dance 5 days a week for at least 2 hours a day, and I go to the gym a lot. So I know it isn't lack of exercize. Its the food. Please, if you have and advice for me, reply to this message. I need all the help I can get.
