Ht. 5'2", Start: 216 lb, Today: 216 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - I need some serious motivation to lose weight, but it's like, i'm okay with being fat. I have the confidence to strut my stuff, i've never let my weight affect my potential. I mean, i'm on my school's drill team, and i'm really good. But always in the back of my mind, and at home, is my grandma yelling at me to lose weight so i can be pretty. I always felt that i was pretty how i was, but i also know that what i weigh is unhealthy. I want to lose weight for my health, that was i won't have those weak moments of being jealous of my skinny friends or i can feel good about exercising. I want to be more active. I want to go shopping and not be worried about finding something in my size or about if it will look good because of my shape. But, everytime i try to get health, i quit. I lose all motivation. I need help. What are somethings that kept y'all motivated. I need more than one thing to keep me focused. Please and Thank You.

Ht. 5'5.5", Start: 181 lb, Today: 181 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 115 lb - Okay I officially started my weight loss once again. I'm currently 128 pounds and gained 4 pounds >.< I was just indulging in so much sweets and junk for the past 2 months but I'm on my A game now!! :) I have been going through so much family turmoils and I thought this was my only way out. Anyhow, I was hoping if anyone can recommend toning dvds? I'm hoping to buy the 30 day shred dvd by Jillian Michael and another beneficial intense workout d.v.d that I was hoping you guys would recommend. thanks!

Ht. 5'7", Start: 165 lb, Today: 155 lb (BMI %tile: 79), Goal: 140 lb - So i'm still lingering at this weight. It's almost like, i'm doing enough not to gain back any weight, but at the same time, i'm not doing enough to lose some more. And i have exams to study for, so there's not much time to get exercise and focus on losing those 10-15 pounds. Hopefully, by the end of this week i'll be on track again. Does anyone have WiiFit? I do! I think it's pretty fun, but damn that thing can be pretty exhausting! I'm planning on working out to some of the exercises on the Wii this weekend. :) I'm going swimsuit shopping this week or in two weeks. yikes! You'd think that should be motivation enough for me to get up and going, but i'm still slacking off! agghh. Anyway! Good Luck to anyone else who has exams, and good luck to everyone else who's trying to get healthy! We can do it! =P ~ Juliette

Ht. 5'8", Start: 228 lb, Today: 197 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 178 lb - Soo I wake up this morning ready to weigh myself,I swam for 2 hours yesterday then got home and worked out some more ate a good amount of food. Here it is 197 gained a pound really that sucks. On a better note today I got up at 7:30AM ate breakfast, got dressed and then at 8 I took a run. I finished a mile in 14 minutes :) that's the fastest I've ever done my record was 17 minutes I totally owned a personal record. The cheerleaders at my school all size 0-8 run a mile in 13 minutes that makes me pretty darn happy their almost half of me but I did it :')

Ht. 5'4", Start: 160 lb, Today: 188 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 128 lb - Heyy.
How are you guys?
I want to ask a question...
Is it right for your boyfriend to tell you that you need to lose weight?
I was wandering because my boyfriend is always saying stuff like " you know I love you for who you are but you need to lose weight" or "you are so pretty but if you lost some weight you would look and feel better about yourself"
like if he sees me eating chips he'll be like "woah look how much calories are in those"
and I know he loves me and is just trying to help but he knows I'm really sensitive about that stuff , and it doesn't help when he's 6 feet 130 pounds and 17 , he's like a stick.
And I don't know... Some of the stuff he says even if he's trying to help it makes me feel like crap.
So my question is what do I say when he says stuff that hurts

Ht. 5'5", Start: 176 lb, Today: 175 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 125 lb - Hey guys, I have been struggling with my weight for a while. But this past school year was the absolute worst. There was this kid literally half my height making up rumors about me and doing all this mean stuff. He made signs about my weight and held it up in class and the teacher just laughed along acting like it was no big deal! Anyway, I also have scoliosis, I curved spine. It is becoming more servere because of my weight. I have pinched a nerve before and ended up on the floor for 3 hours! I just want to fix my weight soon for my mental and physical health! For some more support go to www.weightaminuteyouth.webs.com it helps I lost 7 pounds and ended up gaining it back from the binge eating after the bullying. But, plz help me I have to lose weight by 8th grade, I have to look good for the dance, p.e.(we all dread it), and just want to be able to run for miles. I am starting to train for a marathon for when I am 16 that way I have a lot of time to fix my issues and build up endurance. Thanks guys and please comment! & go to www.weightaminuteyouth.webs.com

I'm happy to not have to WALK around SCHOOL which is hard because of my WEIGHT. HopeFULLy this summer I won't GAIN any WEIGHT because I'm alREADY too HeAvY and I HATE it! Being OVERweight is the WORST because it HURTS to WALK and its HARD to BREATHE and everyone MAKES FUN of ME! It's so UNfair to have so many PROBlems just because I have CRAVEings and sometimes OVEReat. And it's UNfair that I can't exerCISE because of my WEIGHT but I can't LOSE weight until I EXERcise!!!
PS My stupid BROther is supposed to weigh 80 and he's OVERweight too becuase he weighs 140. But he doesn't EVEN care! He can RUN in footBALL and I can BAREly WALK 5 minutes at SCHOOL. And he feels FINE but I feel so HEAVY its like carrying a MOUNTAIN all the time!!! UnFaIr!!!

Ht. 5'4", Start: 280 lb, Today: 273 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - Hey everyone. I can't seem to find any motivation. And when I start eating healthy, after like the second day, I just quit. And I start to think, is it really worth it to be skinny? All you people who have lost a significant amount of weight, is it worth it? I need some encouraging words, anyone care to give me any?

Ht. 5'5.5", Start: 181 lb, Today: 181 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 115 lb - Current Weight: 128.7 pounds. Yeah I gained about 3 pounds again, however, it was because I was in and out of the er with my father who was terribly sick this month. But nonetheless I am back on track and hoping to do detox throughout the week with lemonade to clean my system every morning. Anyhow, I was wondering how long does it take to fully tone? I was hoping to lose as much fat weight, till I'm 120 pounds, and then start intense toning regimes during July and August. I was wondering is that enough time to get toned?
