Ht. 5'0", Start: 136 lb, Today: 125 lb, Goal: 117 lb - To Karen and anyone else who wants to know. This is how I lost weight. I gained weight over the holidays like most people do and I weighed 136. Then I got body-shaping class at school and started exercising more. A couple days a week I walk home from school instead of taking the bus (only like a 20 minute walk and takes me 5 minutes longer than taking the bus!) I started bringing healthy lunches to school and almost every night I have a Lean Cuisine meal w/1% milk & I even have dessert every night (something like a 90 cal ice cream bar, sugar-free jello or jello pudding, small piece of chocolate, etc.) I got a gym membership at the YMCA...I'm serious, if you want QUICK weight loss go to a gym and use the cardio machines. Once in a while I go to the gym and do the cross-trainer for 20 minutes, the stationary bike for 10 minutes, 30 minutes jogging on treadmill, then lift some light weights and do crunthces/leg lifts.....I also treat myself to whatever I want on weekends! Good luck everyone! =)
