I am 17 years old and i weigh 240 pounds! It really sux! I started doing the gazelle and lost 10 pounds, but then i quit. Then i started dieting and drinking alot of water, and i lost a few pounds, but then i quit that too. I hate myself and have never been satisfied with the way I look. My boyfriend says he loves me just the way I am. But I dont. He doesnt even know how much i weigh. I dont look like i weigh this much, but i do. every night i look in the mirror and am so disgusted with myself. i am ashamed of myself. i hate me. i hate exercizing. i want to start the gazelle again and diet again, but i dont know if i will lose as much weight as i want to. I want to lose 100 pounds. there is a wonderful beautiful person under all this ugliness dying to get out, but i dont kow if i can do it. this really sux. If there is anybody out there i can talk to, please email me. i dont want to feel worthless anymore. hellraiser_52501@yahoo.com

hey, you can lose as much weight as you want to and what you've got is a great goal and a good healthy way to acheive it. you're one up on a lot of people here so far, right? now- you just have to remember that if you don't do it yourself then it won't happen and changing your ways will change your body and it's worth it. when you look in the mirror just tell yourself that you're changing and try not to get depressed because it's really not easy staying on track then. just get up and get to it! you can definately so this- just put yourself on the right track and stay there. it's simple, not easy, but simple and i know you can lose that weight. you have time to lose it too, you're young and it sounds like you've got a great boyfriend so just take it one day at a time...good luck!
