Ht. 5'7", Start: 210 lb, Today: 190 lb, Goal: 150 lb - well i am currently at a stop in my weight loss. I was down to 180 but i have been slacking on my diet lately. I usually run two miles every other day but lately i have been off track. I love to run. I get tired and sweaty but it seems to make me feel relaxed and less stressed. but my problem is that i dont have time lately to run, or to exercise at all for that matter. i am trying a diet starting today that i found in a book especially for teens, i hope it works. i have some modivation. i am seeing my old bestfriend when he comes home for thanksgiving so i want to look good when i see him. I want to surprise him. I dont know if i can do it though, i mean i am busy and all but i just need some more motivation. Does anyone have any ideas? I need some other teen feedback, noone seems to understand my situation very well these days. they expect me to deal with it, and its really hard because my weight is excepted by my family and my boyfriend...and all my friends, the girls all love me the way i am and my guy friends treat me like one of the guys, i know they love me for me but i dont right now, i want to be 150lbs. im not obsessed with getting there but i really want to.i know ill feel healthier and better. MY boyfriend always tells me that im beautiful the way i am but i want to be healthy and beautiful. ANy one have some advice?
