Ht. 5'4", Start: 200 lb, Today: 200 lb, Goal: 150 lb - hey guys :) this is my first time here.
why is it so hard to lose weight? i've.. tried so hard.. to say no to food.. but i just cant for some reason.. i've tried not eating for like two days.. by the third day i went crazy. i keep trying to give myself new motivations every day but.. sometimes i get so upset that i dont even care. i just really wish i could magically become skinny. i hope this doesnt sound like a drag to read :/ ..

its so hard cuz its like an addiction. . i mean its not like crack or anything but its almost as hard to quit and it can kill u just as sure, slowly. ;. that's wat i think about when i want junk food or fast food. . JUST SAY NO!!! .. . and heres a great youtube thingie on this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nVVzsdI5agA

I used to be in your spot I weighed 203. I have wanted to quit so bad over the last year and when I do it's like well not what do I do so I keep going on. You keep working out and eating healthy one day you'll wake up and see that beautifull body that you have. it won't magically apear but it will eventually happen

Dont worry we all have those days where u just wanna give up and plain not try anymore, so ur completely normal. And seriously i wish I could just wake up one day and be skinny but of course life isn't that easy. Here's my advice if ur just starting off. Use this place! Here we are all in the same position so use us when u have a bad day or need tips or whatever. Start posting on here what ur eating and what u are doing for exercise. Not only are people gonna comment on how u did but it will really help just typing in what u are doing for urself each day so u know. Good luck, stay strong!

Try doing what I do. Think of the number one reason why you want to lose weight. If it's for an outfit or something pin it up on your wall or write it down. Look it at as much as you can. That way you remind yourself
