Ht. 5'5", Start: 180 lb, Today: 210 lb, Goal: 130 lb - Senior year was so stressfull for me. My eating habits did not change, but I was up late every night, I didn't have time to work out and I was so stressed. As a result, I gained 30 pounds. I've been working out like crazy all summer and trying to eat healthy, but I am not losing any weight at all. It is really upsetting.

Ht. 5'1", Start: 185 lb, Today: 186 lb, Goal: 110 lb - I need serious help. Exercising is hard because it's too hot. And anyway I have a job where I have to walk home from and when I'm outside walking home I don't feel like going outside again.

Ht. 5'5", Start: 184 lb, Today: 178 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Well, this past week was a HUGE DISASTER. I was doing okay until Wednesday, the night I had to go to a birthday party and concert. Thursday was full of fatty leftovers. Friday to Sunday was all about the Fourth, food, fireworks, food, family & friends, food, music, food, red white & blue and...did I mention food?! Brownies, ice cream cake, boneless wings, you name it. I did, however, get in a LOT of walking...Today I was able to get mostly back on track except for some extra bread and a lack of exercise. I hope the rest of this week will be more scheduled since I started work today. :) Keep the faith, people!! If you feel like a failure like me, listen to the song "Get Up" by Superchick.

Ht. 6'11", Start: 700 lb, Today: 689 lb, Goal: 100 lb - Question: How do I tone up and lose fat under my arms and around my triceps?
Answer: Like any other body part, the triceps (or the back of the arm) won't respond to spot training. In other words, you can't do tricep exercises and hope to burn fat there. The only way to lose fat from under your arms is to lose overall body fat (see below) and hope your body will cooperate (your body is in charge of where and what order you lose body fat). That doesn't mean tricep exercises are useless...strength training is great for building muscle and helping to raise your metabolism and tricep exercises can help you build strength and firm up your muscles. So, training the triceps should be part of your regular exercise routine...just don't expect those exercises to get rid of any excess fat you may be storing there.

Ht. 5'7", Start: 178 lb, Today: 164 lb, Goal: 130 lb - Hey guys! I've been on my diet for about two weeks and I've already lost 14lbs! I feel great! I have also been exercising by walking and doing a few exercise tapes each day. I'm hoping to be down to atleast 150 by the time school starts and be at my goal weight by Christmas.
Hope everyone else is doing well!

So far today I'm doing really good even though it's morning. The only way I can do this is just by taking it 1 hour at a time. I ate some oatmeal and a hashbrown, now I'm about to go walking. If I could just last until 3:30 which is when I leave to go to work, I'll be in good shape.

Ht. 5'8", Start: 179 lb, Today: 160 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Yesterday...was not so good lol. Hung out with one of my best friends Danielle. All she eats is junk food, like 24/7 but shes not overweight because she is a professional skiier (ranked like 2nd in the UK or something crazy like that!) Anyways i had eaten a healthy bfast and lunch b4 i went and then while i was there i had bowl of icecream with a choc flake, crisps, choc yoghurt, 1/2 pizza and then i had a big bag of minstrels at the cinema. Despite that junk-filled day which contained no exercise whatsoever, i weighed in a lb lighter this morning! I am actually quite proud of myself because usually if i eat unhealthy foods i always end up bingeing because i am stuck in the 'all or nothing' mindset but when i got home i ignored the binge urge, brushed my teeth and went straight to bed! Cant wait to see 150-something on the scale next =]
