Ht. 5'4", Start: 208 lb, Today: 222 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 140 lb - I am so disgusted because i thought i was going to loose weight by now. i been eating healthy and even getting exercises and when i weighed myself i gained weight again. i am so scared i just always am heavier when i stand on the scale. i hate looking so fat and my stomach sticking out. i wish i was skinny like the girls at my school.

it's hard, but keep you head up! i'm sure you've heard that a million times before and you'll probably hear it a million times again, but it's the truth and if it's a food or excercise issue your dealing with then i suggest "the diet for teenagers only". it's a great really helpful book writen by people who understand teenage bodies. but what your struggeling with might just be stress. worry, stress, frustration, all that stuff may not seem like they can have a big effect on your health but it's happened to so so so many people and it makes it alot harder for your body to get rid of fats.
maybe try some relaxing techniques like yoga, or stoping for a minute everyday to take some deep breathes. anything helps. good luck, lots of love .marie

Hey Natalie! They way your feeling about yourself right now is not going to help you. You have to change the way you look at your self. When yourself, you should be saying I beautiful but I'm unhealthy and I have to becme healthy. You are sayin your diet is not working? Have you made your meals in to smller portions? Have you stuck to it to the letter? Only allowing one meal a week as a cheat meal? Are you pushing yourself when you work out or are you just walking at the same pace for the same amount of time? Are you working out 6x a week? Or once or twice a week? If you want this to work you have to push your normal limit to where it has not been before. Go to the gym with a friend or a family member who will work with you to motivate you. I hope what I said has help you some. If you want to talk more let me know by emailing me at Deetiny93@yahoo.com
