Ht. 5'7", Start: 161 lb, Today: 157 lb (BMI %tile: 91), Goal: 140 lb - OK, so I know it sounds ridiculous, but chucking out my old clothes was the best thing I have ever done. Being able to tell myself that I'm not going to fit into a size eight (on account of my height) was so motivating. It made me realise that I'm not going to be super thin. I don't want to be super thin, I want to be healthy. Then I went out shopping and bought new clothes. I was fed up with always hiding away in black. Now I have more confidence in myself. I now have a new wardrobe, attitude and new motivation to lose weight :)
