Ht. 5'8", Start: 228 lb, Today: 202 lb, Goal: 130 lb - I can no longer do this. Dieting no that's not what I'm talking about. I've been dieting on and off sense i was 8 years old, why because sense then my grandmother has always said something about my weight and I always try to lose weight but not for me for her cause what she says hurts her her and i can't just keep eating right one day and chips and cake the other and so now its got to stop im giving myself 6 months from today 7/13/08 to 1/13/09 im done with dieting cause either i have the willpower to do this or i don't so that's it another 6 months to get between 160-130 pounds cause i can't do this my whole life i just cant Until then,I WILL TRY NOT TO WANDER OFF THE COURSE! CAUSE IF I STAY TRUE, IT WILL HAPPEN! Although this sounds so simple, it's not at all. None the less, I will be determined,and I will lose this weight once and for all! I'm so tired of dieting.I just want to Get it over and done with. I have to do it for me this time

you seem so motivated! and since it's for you and not your grandma this time, i'm sure you'll stick with it!

i know how you feel. a big pressure to lose weight (and probably partially why I have issues with food) has been my family and extended family. you really can do this though! people do it every day, and they feel amazing and confident afterwards. we'll go for it together!
