wow- i found an old weight journal from the beginning of 2003 when i was 173 pounds(i didn't really start losing any weight until the beginning of this school year). i can't remember being that weight. i'm not sure how much i weigh right know but it's a little under 150 pounds. i feel great- ven though it's taken me a long while to lose that amount of weight i didn't starve myself or do anything hurtful to my body and i'm not more fit then most of the thinnest girls in my tennis class. i haven't gotten to what i want to look like but now i can run for long periods of time and not die and i've never had that before. by the way- if you want to know how i did this was i did taebo or a different cardio exersize and i tried to do 30-60 minutes everyday, i also cut down to a reasonable amount of calories ranging from 1200-1500. some people will say that low calorie diet and exersize doesn't work but if you're patient and you want to be healthy it works really great. i've lost 20+ pounds and i wasn't even consistant with all of this. i've had bad weeks and good weeks but if you just keep working on it you'll get it. good luck everyone!

I'm glad that you lost that much wieght i wiegh 125 and my mom and grandma keep pressuring me to lose mwieght and i try. I'm like you you have to give it time. I was 150 and in 1 year i lost 25 bounds and it does take time. I can't run like I want to but I'm getting there.So keep up the the good work.
