Ht. 5'5", Start: 173 lb, Today: 167 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 115 lb - Well, here I am. I'm 14 and fat. I have always been overweight, and I knew it I just thought I was just chubby-but I was wrong. I'm doing weigh-down. My mom and her friends and I started it last july. Her friend lost 50 pounds, my mom has lost 30 pounds and I lost 10 pounds....and then I gave up and started slipping up. And now here I am. I wear sweatshirts to hid my body. I know I can do it, but when it's time to eat I have no control.....please I need motivation....

Ht. 5'3", Start: 138 lb, Today: 138 lb (BMI %tile: 88), Goal: 120 lb - I REALLY feel like giving up right now... I don't know what to do! I try not to let anybody know that I'm trying to lose weight, which makes it so much harder. I've only made small changes, so I'm probably not going to lose any weight. I eat a little less at each meal, don't take seconds, do some pushups, crunches, etc. everyday, but it just seems so hopeless! I really want to be thin, but I just am on the verge of giving up AGAIN! I was planning on being 120 by June 13, (the day we leave for our trip. Can I lose 18 pounds in about a month and two weeks? Probably not. I've only been going for a couple days now, not even a week, and I can't stick to it! How pathetic... My huge stomach and chubby legs are horrible. Out of school P.E. and home exercises, all I have is soccer practice, which I HATE going. I don't fit in there... If I were to continue my slightly changed routine, would I even lose any weight? help

Ht. 5'7", Start: 155 lb, Today: 183 lb (BMI %tile: 91), Goal: 165 lb - Hey everyone! So i haven't been on this site in about 5 years! I used to come on all the time when I was younger and weight around 200 pounds. Since then I went down to around 155 just through eating less sweets and stuff and doing exercise. At the end 2009 I was at my lowest weight of about 155, and I felt so good! But study and work got in the way and I was eating HEAPS of junk food and went up to 198, a couple of months I started going back to the gym and atm im down to 183 but i want to eventually get back to 150ish. Im setting smaller goals so it doesnt seem like such a huge amount. Im going to try and post my food and exercise every few days just to try and stay motivated because thats my biggest problem. I can being doing really well for like 2-3 weeks then all of a sudden i just stop and think its too hard so I need you guys to help keep me on track :)

People really need to calm the eff down about weight issues, NOBODYS perfect.

It helps if u have a friend or family memeber to motivate u jus sayin. (: Good luck to who ever else is trying.

Ht. 5'4", Start: 280 lb, Today: 278 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 115 lb - Guys, I am so sick of being overweight. It has seriously affected my life in so many ways and I despise it, but for some reason I cannot stick to eating healthy/exercising. I've been trying to lose weight since I was 12 years old and I've accomplished nothing; the only way the scale has gone is UP since then. When I was in seventh grade, I weighed around 200 pounds... that was about 6 years ago, and now I'm like 278. I've been at this weight(or just in the 270's) for a few years now. So basically, I gained like 75 pounds or so in just a few years. ANYWAY, I think I'm finally ready to accomplish my goals. I am sick of letting this affect my life so much, and I'm sick of being fat. If anyone has advice or tips, reply please and tell me? :) Thank you!

Ht. 4'11", Start: 150 lb, Today: 150 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 120 lb - Okay, 30 pounds, 3 months. Can I do it?? XD I have always been a little chubby, not fat, but still over weight. It has never really bothered me that much, I still think I'm beautiful. But then I met the love of my life, and even though he tells me everyday I'm perfect, I just don't feel good enough for him. He's hot and truly is perfect in every way, and I want to look like the girl I think he deserves. So I'm trying to lose weight, I have been eating very healthy, especially foods I know are supposed to boost your metabolism, I do 30 minutes of cardio everyday (jogging!) to burn fat, and 15 minutes of muscle training to tone my body. Support and other peoples stories would be very much appreciated =) Hopefully 3 months from now I will be posting my success story <3
