From Trip, Age 16

Once i realized i wanted to lose the weight for myself.......not because of being teased, or society has portrayed thin as glamorous.....all it took was researching healthy eating on the net.I looked at the low carb diet, decided to try it.......and through eating good tasty meals i STILL saw the weight begin to melt away.Of course i became excited at this, actually SEEING the weight going, so unlike other diet attempts i stuck to it.My highest weight......14 and 325...and now im 16 and 135.Of course you have to also exercise, like cardiovascular, so as your body begins to shrink from the lost weight the skin remains tight and healthy.Simple cardiovascular activities helped me to avoid the 'loose skin' situation. Now we are all different as to the way we loose weight, our metabolisms and what particular diets work the best.All i know is YOU GUYS AND GALS CAN REACH YOUR WEIGHT GOAL!!iT'S not EASY AND will NOT HAPPEN FAST!!The results can take a LOOOOOOOOONG time to begin showing but dont give up!!As to what i have to say to the girls and guys who treat me like one of the guys now, instead of laughing at me and picking on me as they used to.........well i cant use that language here, and they matter NOTHING to me. I lost the weight for ME and not to have a cheerleader girlfriend or be 'popular' !! Anyway, the Tripster wishes u all sucess. Peace and harmony.
