I used to be 176 pounds and i was only 5'2. Now i am 136. I lost 40 pounds total and i have not reached my goal yet but i am still trying to. I want to weigh 125 so i got 11 pounds to go. I lost these pounds by taking these diet pills called Fasting for children. They make you not hungry and they give you energy. And i loss all this weigh in only 4 months. My doctor reccomoned them to me so it can gve me a jump start. Now i am no longer taking the pills but iam still working at losing that last 15 pounds. If you have any questions feel free to email.

I haven't reached my goal weight 130 pounds but to tell the truth i don't even no how much i weigh but i am sure i do not weigh 130 pounds. Well i used to be 150 when school started but then i joined soccer and i lost 15 pounds by playing soccer. Then sadly when soccer ended I started to gain a lil bit of weight. Then when i heard that volleybal was going to start i joined but then something happened, and i didn't get to stay on the team. Then when i got home that day i found my taobo tapes and i started to do the veryday and since that day i have lost 10 pounds in 3 weeks. I hope that one of these days i will know how much i weigh and get to my goal of 130 pounds and continue lossing weight and looking good! If you have any questions you can contact me at my email at: kerenpr2001@yahoo.com or instant message at: Angelface5090!

I became fat when I was 8 I used to be a normal skinny little girl, but after that I was gaining more wheight. When I was in 8th grade I suddenly lost 10 lbs. 160 down to 150.I decided then that I wanted to loose more so I started eating less and exercised everyday(at least 30 mins). I am now 14 and a freshman and happily 130 lbs a size small in shirts and 6 in pants! (I used to be a large and a size 12!) I would possibly like to loose more but ya know I'm pretty happy with myself FINALLY! You know what God thinks your beautiful no matter what so.....just know that he can help you and if you want to change your look go for it the right way!!! GOOD LUCK!

I was never realy fat but I was always a little chubby round my stomach and thighs. I was embarassed by my weight and I wore clothes to cover it up. I have lost weight just by being realy active and forgetting about eating. So I just eat when it is mealtime and I hardly ever think about food because I am studying or doing stuff with my friends. Food is not a hobby it is just a partof every day that I have to do to be healthy. And I lost all my extra weight and now everyone keeps saying how slim I am. I am so looking forward to Christmas because I look slim in my new clothes. I feel WONDERFUL!!!

I would constantly eat so much even though i was full. it was like my mouth wanted it, just to taste it and my stomach didn't. I got tired of saying i would lose wieght. I tried starving myself for 3 days and then i realized how worst it was, i felt bloated and hunry. I started to eat again and gained all the weight, and even more. so then i promised myself i would inally diet the right way. I ate fruits everyday. Only fruits. I started to think of fat food as an enemy. I then realized that it was workng. I was 170 then i went down to 140 in 3 months, i will continue dieting and eating right and lose more. I ffeel so good. i'm 5'9 so before i still didn't look big. i looked slim, but now i feel slim. so what im saying is everyone can do it like i did! Just believe in yourself. e-mail if you need help/ Pussycat_49@yahoo.com

When I was about 13, I started to get really fat, and by the time I was in 8th grade I was about 189 pounds. I felt disgusting and I hated myself. I got this way because I formed some really bad habits. My sister is kinda big and she used to eat junk food all the time, and to me it was like a competition - if she had 3 chocolate cookies I had to have 3 too. It's really sad that I got this way cause I used to be so active and skinny when I was little. So I got fed up with being fat and when I was 14 we got a dog. I did some research and decided that calorie counting would be the most effective way to lose weight, and so I did that and walked my dog every day for 30 to 40 minutes. Within a year or two I had gone from 189 pounds to 143 pounds. By then I was doing my final years of school and had starting working part time and all the stress of it made me gain weight, and I now weigh 167...

I am really disapointed with this, and I've tried to get back down to 143 but the more I try the more depressed I get and it's so hard cause now that I've finished school I work all the time and don't have time for my walks anymore. I would really love to get back to 143, but my ultimate goal is 132 pounds. I'm so sick of feeling fat, especially when I have friends who are the same height as me and weigh like 125 pounds. To anyone who wants to lose weight, first you have to really want it, then believe you can do it. Then you must make healthy food choices and enjoy exercising every day, because it all counts. And enjoy your years at school! They will be the best years of your life! I know it doesn't seem like it when your there, but once you leave life is just work work work. Believe in yourself, be patient and never ever give up! (view less)
