Well to tell the truth, I havent been doing so good lately. I have just been slacking off on my diet. I wanted to start one in i think literally like July, and so far I have lost nothing. I hope to lose at least 50 pounds by the time i go to highschool, which is in about 9 months. I know I can do it, but I really have to commit. I have faith. I am ready to get back on my diet. Today so far I have only had this pasta thing with tomatoes. Like 400 calories or something around there. So far I am doing good, so Im gunna keep going. I will reach my goal weight!!!!! Well please respond with tips, critisism, anything would be greatly appreciated! :) Good Luck everyone! I'll post again later!
