I've been trying to lose weight for ages now, but I always find that I can either eat nothing at all, but if I start eating I can't stop! Anyone else like this? How do you deal with it? I really want to try and lose around 20lbs but February xx

Well, I actually did much better than I normally do in terms of portion control and just choosing a few special treats, but I still went overboard. Oh well, tis the season! I get back on track tomorrow. =)

Ht. 5'4", Start: 291 lb, Today: 283 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 180 lb - GREAT NEWS! (well for me) I lost 8lbs! lmao I lost 8 pounds! (yea I kno its water weight) I am so happy! I feel so motivated... and this is not my weigh in day! Tomorrow is! omg... I wanna cry... I really feel that I can do this... and sometime this weekend I am hoping to get my pedometer... like I said in an earlier post I noticed most of the change in my mid section but the back of my thighs are not as cellulitey (the front needs a bit of a miracle lol) and my arms kinda lifted...
I didn't exercise for the day yet... and the sun is out... so I'll do so tonight! :(Last night I had pizza... my parents aren't home and it's just me and my older brother here... and he bought us pizza... (if it helps he gave me the smaller slices)
hopefully I don't let this weight loss get to me because everytime I lose weight I use it as an excuse to eat because I said it's not going to do anything... and it does because I quit for months at a time...

Ht. 5'5", Start: 240 lb, Today: 240 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 115 lb - This is what Im really wondering, I have a very small frame, my doctor says a healthy weight for me is 115, with that being said, Im 240 now, meaning I would have to lose 125 pounds!! I have about 20 months to do so, so I wont be rushing it but what I am wondering is, will I have a ton of extra skin from losing weight? I heard someone say that people who lose alot of weight have a ton of extra skin that sags, or is that only for older people? Does anyone have any tips, I really have no idea what Im doing besides wanting to lose weight..

Ht. 5'3", Start: 163 lb, Today: 160 lb (BMI %tile: 97), Goal: 115 lb - Well over the past... week? i lost about 3 pounds. some probably water weight and whatnot. so im trying to get to 120-130 by april. But definitely to 120 by May, which is my bday. And then get to my goal of 110 or 115 by graduation, which is June. Then summer!!! So this currently how i did today. For breakfast i had this yam bread thing. I ate half of it so about 200 calories? For lunch I had butternut squash ravioli and thats about 450 calories. I had 3 skittles in the afternoon but thats only around 30 calories ish. I don't know what I'm eating for dinner, but after dinner I'm going to have some fruit and I'm too lazy to calculate that so yea. And i got in about 45 minutes of DDR which burned 150 calories. How did i do?

Ht. 5'5", Start: 214 lb, Today: 192 lb (BMI %tile: 96), Goal: 125 lb - Well I lost weight these past 2.5 weeks. 4 pounds to be exact for a total of 22.5 pounds. I am now only 67 pounds away from my tattoo. I kind of wonder if I lost more though. My period ended yesterday and I always gain a ton of water weight during that week. And I had a huge dinner last night as I had just returned from college for a break. Oh well. I shall weigh myself again after finals week.

Ht. 5'4", Start: 291 lb, Today: 291 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 180 lb - I exercise every morning but this morning I woke up with my electricity off (stupid power company) ... so I exercised tonight... Ever since yesterday, doing specific strength training exercises makes me feel super nauseous and sick. My heart beats so fast and I'm out of breath that you would swear I just finished an hour of intense cardio... It feels horrible... Should I take it easy for a while and do light cardio? I really wanna continue with strength training and I've been doing great since last week... ugh! But other than that I'm eating better and all... this isnt cool I'm finally serious and now I feel like I have to give up!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 225 lb, Today: 168 lb (BMI %tile: 82), Goal: 145 lb - so i basically havent been doing the best for about 4-5 days, i have my period (sorry, gross i know) so ive gained about 2 pounds of water weight, but today i got back on the wagon and ate great and worked out for about 20-25 minutes. im sweating like a fat hog right now but i feel like i really worked out hard, so thats good. i need to stay focused, christmas is coming and i want to be at my goal of 165 (or lower, preferably lower) by then. i know i can do it i just need to stay focused and resist temptation. anyways, hope everyones doing well. stay strong

Ht. 5'4", Start: 291 lb, Today: 291 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 180 lb - I've been exercising for about 5 days and I'm only seeing results in my abdomen area as always... I really want to lose my thighs and my arms... They are my problem areas... not my stomach... It's fairly flat for someone my size but I pretty much carry my weight in my limbs... that sucks... But I'm doing well... staying on the ball and all of that stuff... stay motivated people.
