Ht. 5'6", Start: 330 lb, Today: 298 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Alright so, about two weeks ago I came on here saying that I wouldn't goto my formal eighth grade dance thing. That changed and I lost 7 lbs in the past two weeks. I said I wouldn't go because I was disgusted with myself but I eended up going, and all I got was compliments...not to sound conceited but I looked madd good.lol. Anyways, I got what I wanted. Danced with the guy I liked, although he was stolen from me several times by a bitch.(ugh) I had fun. Well I'm done yapping but I realized I shouldn't let my weight get in the way of things and bring me down. Thanks guys and jkeep up the good work :)

thats awesome that you went !:) i skipped my eighth grade graduation, and my highschool graduation because i was overweight and didnt want to feel gross in a dress. i regret it but it gave me motivation to look better for the next time theres a formal gathering. i bet you looked great. good luck and keep going ! :)
