THE SCALE- The scale is what a dieter lives by. It's their tool. It's what makes them have a good day, or a bad day. I know that because that's what it does to me. I try not to look at my scale too much, but I always find myself in the bathroom. Weight can fluxuate, day by day, and for most girls, week by week. You have may actually lost weight, but it won't show up if your bloated, gained muscle, or have dranked a ton more water than usual. If you have to weigh yourself everyday, do it in the morning, with little, or nothing on, to get a correct reading. Digital scales are more accurate than needle point scales. I recommend to keep track of weight, weigh yourself only once every week, or even every 2, that way the surprise of a missing couple pounds will be a really good motivator. Remember, don't let your weight judge the way you feel about yourself. Someone will not notice if you've gained 3 1/2 pounds, but they will notice when you have lost to your goal weight and you will walk with more confidence and assurance. Good luck!

Ht. 5'4", Today: 163 lb (BMI %tile: 98) - will you please help me lose wieght. I'm 5,4 163. All the people I know say that I'm not fat. the truth is I don't look like I'm no more than 100. No one will say that I'm fat but I think that people look at me funny, being fat might also be why I don't have many friends. If you can help me or have anything to say e-mail me at laquishariley1@msn.com

When you guys say "diet" how long do you plan to stay on it? A couple of weeks? A year? Untill you loose enough weight? Then you easily go back to the way you were before, eating a lot. After you've finished your diet you always end up gaining all the weight again. If any of you are serious about loosing weight, dieting is not the answer. Loosing weight or being healthy is a life changing process! You have to be prepared to change your life for the better. TRAIN yourself to eat healthier and actually excersize at least 3-4 times a week. Its more efficient if you do this slowly and surely. You want to make yourself look good for a life time, not for a month and then gain it all back again. When you have a craving for food or for 2nd helpings remember that food is the reason your changing your life and try to resist temtation. The more you become accustomed to healthy foods, the more you... (view more)

Hi everyone! Well, this isn't totally on topic, but my dad has been looking for some activity for me to do, and well, he found this exersize class that meets three days a week, but it's for adults. I'm really shy around kids my own age...Around grown ups it's even worse. I'm SO scared. Any advice would be grately appriciated.
