Ht. 5'7", Start: 215 lb, Today: 210 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - Hi everyone. I have finally decided to loose some weight. I am obese. It feels so weird to type that. I am fat. I feel like we need to be able to accept that fact before we can work on actually loosing weight. I used to be so concerned if people could see how big I was. Who was I kidding? I am over 200 lbs. Obviously everyone can tell that I am fat. Who cares if you can tell I have a big belly. I am becoming more comfortable with my weight by admitting that I am obese and I need to do something about it. I need to stop eating so much and I need to stop sucking my stomach in all the time. I need to accept the body that I have and if I can't I should loose weight and not try to hide that with my clothes and my sucking my stomach in. I need to stop eating so much and snacking all the time and I really need to start exercising. I can bearly run because I am so big! I have already lost 5 pounds! If you have any suggestions for me let me know!

Ht. 5'4", Start: 190 lb, Today: 170.4 lb (BMI %tile: 94), Goal: 135 lb - So I'm kinda sorta gotten paranoid about getting enough calcium. I'm in the process of weining myself off of caffeine and all sodas in general and eating calcium dense dairy products and taking a vitamin D pill. I found this article about getting more calcium and thought it was very informative. I thought maybe somebody else might find it useful too. Have a good week everyone!

I know it is hard to tell if they want something} or not.. That sad ... I really want to cry.. Teens our age not talking very depressing.. I wish I could put a sad face...

Ht. 5'3", Start: 142 lb, Today: 139 lb (BMI %tile: 88), Goal: 125 lb - First off: I LOVE THIS WEBSITE! I am constantly looking for motivational success stories and great tips from teens that are the same age as me. Ive always struggled with weight issues but I have always been active with swim, dance, bike riding etc. This summer I decided to kick it up a notch and go to a personal trainer 1-2 a week (this is the summer before i start high school btw) My trainer has taught me so much so here are a few things Ive been doing so far:
1. Eat ORGANIC fruits and vegetables. Organic is 40x more nutrient dense than normal fruit and veggies. *all food is better organic but AT LEAST eat organic fruit and veggies
2. Don't worry about eating less calories think about what kind of calories you're putting into your body. So stop counting calories and start switching from cookies to celery and from hot dogs to chicken breast.
3. MOVE! dont think of it as working out just movement! Remember doing 2 push ups is better than none :) (view less)
