Ht. 5'2", Start: 150 lb, Today: 148 lb, Goal: 115 lb - i hate being overweight. people calling me fat, not being able to get a boyfriend. it sucks. i just wanna be skinny like everyone else. i always feel like i stand out. and i try not to eat bad stuff, but its so hard not too. & i have made my self throw up, but it dont make me a better person. i just wunna be skinny, and i dont wanna stand out. then maybe my friends wont be so mean to me like they are. and maybe i'll get more respect. but, i know that if you put ur mind to it you will lose weight, so now i think im gunna try harder. best wishes to everyone & put your mind to what you wanna do, & stick with it. thanks a bunch.

Don't worry hun, I promise this will be the ardest time of ur life just keep ur head up and u will make it thru a much stronger person. And coming from someone who has battled eating disorders, it is not the way to go! I know its tempting, i am tempted everyday to go back because I know it works but it is a destructive cycle and u are better then that. Stay Strong.

I know how you feel. People don't openly make fun of me too my face, but when someone gets mad at me, they call me a fatass or make some kind of remark if we're fighting. But it's never been one of my friends. Maybe they aren't the best friends you and can have, if they're gonna make fun of you. And I can relate with the food thing. I KNOW what I should eat, but it's so hard to follow. GOOD LUCK!
