okay, so here's my story, i'm 15 and i weigh 160-164 lbs (my weight varies a lot from day to day) about 2 months ago i weighed 154 and about 6 months before that i weighed 145, i wasn't happy at 145, less happy at 154 and extremely depressed where i am now. my boyfriend loves me to death and he tells me that i'm not fat and that i look perfect, so do all my friends. but i know they just don't want to hurt my feelings. but i'm not happy the way i am and i want to lose the weight. also i'm going on a cruise in about 4 weeks and i want to lose 10-15 lbs by then so i can actually look good in my swimsuit. my ultimate goal by summer is to be around 125-130. that's in 3 months. i know i can do it but i need support. i'm doing taebbo and eating healthy and doing some weights. even if i don't lose pounds i want to lose inches for sure. so anyway, wish me luck and let me know if you know any ways to lose more weight before my cruise in 4 weeks!

Let me say that I think thats really sweet that ur boyfriend likes you for the way u are. He deserves brownie points for being supportive. Anyway i was on this diet in which i lost 5 pounds each week, i lost 15 pounds in 3 weeks and if u follow it directly u can lose up to 20 pounds in 1 month!! The diet is simply 4 egg whites in the morning, a salad for lunch, and 1/2 cup of rice, cooked vegetables, and a chicken breast for supper everyday until you lose the weight you wanna lose.It's safe and it works.

i think you can do it! Just start exerising- walk for 30 minutes a day. Eat healthy too, maybe tery the South Beach Diet.. a friend of mine just lost 25 pounds in 2 months on it!
