OK well heres my story, I had lost 17 lbs as of before christmas but of course holidays mean food and that means eating everything within reach hehe so i gain back like 3 lbs but i am working on it. On to the rest of my story...I am switching schools next term...my last day is tomorrow and then after exams i will start at my new school. I already have friends there but i want to make a good impression on their friends (make sense?) so i am going to try to lose as much as i can in 2 weeks! (by the way i am 12 lbs away from my goal weight)

Hey ya'll. I've posted before and this time I'm asking for a few tips and/or advice. I've completley changed my eating styles. I always have breakfast, no matter what. I used to rarely have it, but now I have to. I changed my lunch from a slice of pizza, fries, and chocolate milk to a half a turkey sandwhich and skim milk. For a snack, I try to kill of all cravings and go bananas or other fruit, and dinner's the same except for smaller portions. I haven't put as much commitment into it as I can. But I'm going to start this week. I want to excersize more, but I really can't. :( My parents won't let me join a gym or buy a treadmill. I don't have so much time on my hands with homework and work around the house. And it's cold and icy out so I'm scared to go running with the little time I have. Anyone have any tips for me to squeeze some excersize into my diet?

Hi, It's me again. I'm thirty pounds over weight. I wrote a while ago, and you guys told me to drink plenty of water. I appreciate it, but I already drink plenty of water. I've cut out the soda, but I just can't seem to lose any weight. I don't have the time for exercise because I get tons of homework everynight. I don't know what to do. About a few weeks ago, I didn't eat much. It actually worked, but I knew that I should eat healthier stuff. I had been eating cookies, and brownies for lunch. I lost 5 pounds, but as soon as I realized what I was doing, I decided to stop. I gained the 5lbs back. You guys have been very helpful. I need more help. I really want to be down to 95lbs by June 8th (my b-day & SUMMERTIME!) I'm at 125lbs right now. I really need help! :( All my friends are underweight and still think they're fat. I think they're dumb and need to get real.... (view more)Hi, It's me again. I'm thirty pounds over weight. I wrote a while ago, and you guys told me to drink plenty of water.

I think they're dumb and need to get real. They starve themselves and only eat about 1/4 of what they should be eating. They are really underweight. I'm overweight, the exact opposite. I just want to be at my ideal weight without having to stave myself and be super skinny, pale, and weak. I want to lose it the healthy way. So please help me. You can also e-mail me at baby_202_blue@hotmail.com if you want. Thanx. (view less)

Dear Readers,I made a mistake that I hope you all do not do. I starved myself. Not for long (a few days) but I am very lucky that my friends noticed it and stopped me. I ate very little and sometimes nothing at school. My Mom noticed that I was losing weight, and said that I looked too thin. Before you diet...be sure that you are not thin...just seeing yourself as fat. We are all growing and need nutritien. I used to find myself going through the kitchen popping anything in sight until my nouth and as I look into the pictures, I notice that I looked a bit fat. Here are a few steps to losing weight or avoiding gaining weight:1) Keep ALL snack foods at your home in a cupboard so you have to do something to get it...and you will be sure that you REALLY want it...not only for the craving or the taste2) Only eat desserts on special occasions. Instead of having a cookie with that milk, why not... (view more)Dear Readers,I made a mistake that I hope you all do not do. I starved myself.

Instead of having a cookie with that milk, why not an apple? Although the craving may be very hard to overcome, just remind yourself of how unhealthy that is for you and how you will feel if you have all of that extra weight. You don't have to give up desserts forever. I have tried to stick to "no desserts" unless it is a birthday of a friend gave you a bag of delicious chocolates! Try to make fruits seem delisous. Have images in your mind of the apple with water dripping off of it, and it coming out of the wonderful earth. 3) When possible...get the "Non-fat" or "Low-fat" things. Sure, those Lays Chips look good...but why feel heavy and possibly get heavy when you can go for the "Baked Lays"? You will feel so much better after eating an apple and "Baked Lays" and turkey sub than having "Whole-fat" chips, a burger and fries, and ice cream! 4) Exercise!!!! Having it be a rainy day is NO excuse for staying at home watching TV and eating cookies! Get all bundled up and take a low-key walk in the rain. Invite a few pals to go for a stroll in woods with you and work those legs! Maybe for Christmas you could ask for a tredmill if your parent doesn't already have one. They can be a blast in front of a TV!I hope these tips have helped and if you have any questions or comments please email me at patch1690@yahoo.com.Thanks! (view less)
