well, i guess i am "new" here. i hope this place will inspire me to lose weight...about 5 months ago, i was in a real ditch. I hated myself sooo much. Everyday i woould wake up to a day of hell. There was never anything to look forward and i was miserable. I probably thought about my weight at least 30 times a day. I HATE IT, and back then it wasnt good for my health in EVERY way. I couildnt even run a block without being out of breath, and i can not find any clothes. Also, the whole weight thing, plus other issues lead to self mutilation. I started to cut my arms with razor blades and knives. It seemed so good, to hurt something i hated so much. After a while i relized how stupid it was to have done that. I felt so ashamed to do sh*t like that. I was on the upswing, although i did not like my weight, i started to deal with some of my problems, and started to feel alot better about my...

I was on the upswing, although i did not like my weight, i started to deal with some of my problems, and started to feel alot better about my self. I had an excellent 3 months, filled with people and things i love...(including food, which wasnt that great).....slowly i began eating more and more, and more frequently. i started eating because i was slowly again, becoming depressed about my physical shape. I would hide in my room for hours and days, crying and eating, and not being able to stop. A couple weeks ago, i got out the trusty razor blade, and made 5 neat cuts across my arms. They were deep, and are just healing now. My parents noticed one day when my shirt sleeve came up...i made a feeble story about a barbred wire fence. I relized today, this morning, how much trouble i am in. If i dont take care of my weight problem soon, i am worried my self mutilation will go further...it scares me, but at the same time, it feels so good, so relieving...i feel scared, and i wanna lose weight REALLY bad...i am 259 lbs, but i am quite muscly, so i dunno what my ideal weight is. thank you all for listening to me rant, it feels good to get it off the shoulders..any input would be very helpfullll.

Hey Ya'll. I was talking to my mother on the phone the other day, and she told me that if you drink 1 1/2 - 2 cups of water about 10 min before each meal, you wont be as hungry and you can make your body think your full. And also if you eat slow you stomach feels full faster so you dont eat as much. She did this every day for about three months and lost like 32 pounds. But she was also walking the dog every day. So like try to stay active and go for like a thirty minute walk every day. Stay active, eat a little less, and every thing should be fine. I know... I have officily started taking my own advice, caz I wanna lose weight as well. See my post from yesterday. Thanks a bunch for listening... or reading anyway! Good luck to all, and if you need advice, or a weight loss buddy email me, Krissy T! darkfairie3288@hotmail.com I'm here for everyone. I also have MSN messanger if you wanna IM me. Just use my email address. Thx!

I'm so frustrated with myself right now. I had binged and I am 143.5..well thats what It said this morning. I ran a mile and a 1/2 today..and I walked two miles. I really want to be 115..my goal was 110 but then I dicided I'd rather have a little bit of a shape to me. I'm only 5'1" by the way. I just don't know how the heck im gonna do this. I remember someone saying the lost like 11 pounds by eating all fruits and veggies..and It came off super fast. I need to do something that will give me fast results or I probably won't stick to it. I'm getting a trainer on the 26th so that will help but I would like to get started now. Does anyone have any advice? Thanks so much guys.

hi my name is McKylie...im 5'3 and I used to weigh 193 pounds...YEAH THAT'S BIG...the point is I was in denial for a long time about how overweight I really was. That was two years ago.Now I'm a freshmen in high school and I am down to 124 pounds. I still have some shape to me...I don't want to be a stick.I was so UNHAPPY when I was big. Now I get better grades,I have my first boyfriend, and this year I made cheerleader. All I did was act like I had had a gastric bypass. I know that sounds stupid...but it works.I told myself I could only have so and so ounces of food a day and all I drank was water. I told myself that if I ate more than I should...I have to burn it off. So every day after I got home from school,I walked down the road and back.It's about a mile.I also did 10 sit-ups every other day and push-ups every day that I didn't do sit-ups.

Hi i'm David. I wiegh 155 pounds and I hate it! I have tried exercise and diet but it doesn't work. My friends tease me about it and I really only have two friends. I fell different from everybody because i am overweight. I do not know what to do. I have tried joining sports teams including basketball but i still am made fun of. The only thing I feel accepted in is school related things including writing, math team, and Student Council. The only problem with that is then I am a nerd. I want to lose weight and I WANT TO LOOK GOOD. Plus all of my friends are going out with someone. The one girl I went out with dumped me within a week saying I was to fat for her. PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!My E-Mail address is Dave91@neo.rr.com
