I try to lose weight, but it's so hard! I would like to at least lose 10 pounds by August 30th before school starts. I eat less but its hard not eating sweets. I just am so motivated to lose weight and if I put my mind to it I hope i can succeed!!!!!!!!!!!

I have learned a lot watching my brother. He is really thin, but he doesnt eat a lot. He will have something little, then be doing something. he will take a bite or two of something then will save it for another day. I asked him one time, and he says, I am just too busy to eat, and I only eat when I am hungry. I am the complete opposite! The last few days I have been so good, I have set my mind that I am going to lose weight, and only eat when I am hungry. Suprisingly I have to make myself eat more because I have been only eating 1,000 calories. I never thought I would say that. Today I ate 1,200. I am feeling great! I know you can do it too! Just remember when the toughest days come where you want to eat, you got to try twice as hard to stay away, and say no to the food! Good Luck and I know you can lose 10 pounds by August 30th!!!
