Ht. 5'8", Start: 209 lb, Today: 209 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 160 lb - So I've been overweight for a while, but I was never really THAT bothered by it. But I was looking at my pictures from New Years Eve and I realized that I don't look as good as I thought I did. So I want to start losing weight. I'm joining weight watchers on tuesday because that is when the first meeting starts. But I feel I should probably start working on it now. I need massive help with motivation. It's just so hard to say no to all the junk food. I am in my second year in college. All my friends are pretty skinny but all eat really bad. I have to buy and cook my own food. It's so hard not to pinch in and get some take-out with all my friends or junking out on fries after a night out. Also, we go out a lot which means I'm drinking a lot of alcohol which is also very fattening. I just don't know where to start. I would really appreciate some advice :). Also I would love a weight loss buddy, I feel that would really help. My email is gotsports101@surewest.net, drop me an email. Thanks everyone :)

Ht. 5'5", Start: 165 lb, Today: 179 lb (BMI %tile: 94), Goal: 135 lb - I can feel that this is my time to lose the weight that I want to. I now have a job so that I can buy the HEALTHY food that I need to, and my university offers a gym free of charge. I plan on being at my goal weight by summer. This isn't a New Years resolution, but it's a promise to myself that I'll take better care of my body.

Ht. 5'5", Start: 205 lb, Today: 205 lb (BMI %tile: 97), Goal: 150 lb - I went to the doctors today, my PCP she weighed me told me 205. which wasnt too shocking to me because i went to the gyno 2 weeks ago and she told me 208, i'm not sure which one is correct so i just assume 205 it sounds better :) i started college two years ago and weighed 186, not too bad but not good then all of a sudden it jumped, i went from being able to see my toes when i stood up to not even being able to button some size 13 jeans i bought in sept of 08. now i'm a size 18 and cant see my toes nor can i fit into any old clothes.my doctor said 'well you know about your weight right? its nothing new to you? " i said right beacuse before she had told me im done growing vertically and i'd just keep growing width wize and i should be around 150 lbs. she said its alot of belly fat and im putting myself at risk. i know im overweight and i've gained quiet a bit but i feel comfortabl inmyself but i guess i'll try to loose some.

Ht. 5'6", Start: 265 lb, Today: 216 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - I am frantic about something, and I'm hoping someone will be able to give me some real information. I gained abou 80 pounds over the course of about a year (very fast), and have horrible stretch marks ALL over my body. Not joking...stomach, sides, arms, back, breasts, hips, butt, behind the knees, even on the top of one of my shoulders! I am only 19, and I want to be able to feel good once I've reached my goa weight. However, I am terrified that the amount of stretch marks I have means my skin has no elasticity and won't snap back! I don't want to look like I've had six children before I turn 20! I drink water, I exfoliate, I moisturize...but I'm TERRIFIED I'm going to be saggy. Has anyone experienced this? Should I be legitimately worried? What should I do?

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 170 lb (BMI: 26), Goal: 160 lb - Hey everyone. Well I'm back once again. I just can't seem to stick with it anymore. I mean, I've lost 55 pounds already, you'd think I'd be able to lose another 10 right? Wrong. I got down to 163lbs in September and it crept back. So basically, I've been 170 and under and back up again for the past year and a half. Not happy about that at all. But hey, it's a marathon, not a sprint right? I've done pretty well today, had some vegetable soup and tofu and a little bit of frozen yogurt (bad i know but i counted it into my calories). Christmas is days away so it's probably not the best time to start dieting again but I figure, I'll do well for a couple days, take a break Christmas day and then go back full force. My birthday is January 17th and I'll be turning 21, and I'd love to be lighter than I was on my 20th birthday. Right now I'm the exact same weight so maybe by then I'll lose between 5-10 pounds (I hope!) Well, I hope everyones doing well. remember we can do this. Good luck :)

Ht. 5'8", Start: 191 lb, Today: 185 lb (BMI: 28), Goal: 150 lb - I was eatting junk everyday! It was tasty and yummy for me before my diet. I had a wake up call, I have found out that junk has lots of extra sugar that I do not need. I'm going to a gym for 2 hours a day and dancing at home for 30 mins. I had find this is the best way.
