Ht. 5'7", Start: 190 lb, Today: 190 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Hey, does anyone remember me? Okay, so I don't care too much about my weight, but the way I look. I felt really good about myself for a while, but lately I have felt so large and gross...and MUCH less confident. I don't know what to do...I can't stand being in pictures, and I have no control over what goes on Facebook, and I feel like I get small parts in plays because I don't "look right". So I'm really upset...help, someone? I just don't know how to get the motivation to feel confident about myself again!

If you really don't like how you look, try using photoshop (if you have it) or GIMP (download it online for free) or just go to prevention.com On prevention, enter a weight, and though it's not for teens, you can see how you'd look with your height and that weight. Try it, and it can motivate you! I used to think my weight held me back, and that's one of the reasons I decided to lose weight. And, because I wanted to shave off a couple seconds off my 50 Free.... lol
