Ht. 5'5", Start: 203 lb, Today: 190 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 130 lb - Im really worried Im not going to lose weight. Im a senior now and Ive always wanted to go to prom. Its in May but I all ready started looking at dresses and they all show arms. Im afraid if i dont lose the weight I want i wont look good in a dress and wont go. Lately ive been depressed and cant get motivated any suggestions?

Heres an idea. Go out and buy a dress that is a reasonable size to get to by prom. Every month, try it on and see how close you are to fitting into it. Don't buy anything too expensive. Or you can just go into the shop once a month to try it on. It's easy to lose weight if you have something specific to work towards.
