From Flower Fawn, Age 15 - 06/02/08 - IP#: 71.175.129.xxx Click here to reply Ht. 5'5", Start: 184 lb, Today: 178 lb, Goal: 150 lb - I really have nothing intelligent to say right now, but I really just need to vent. GRRRR!!! If I see one more question worksheet about "Romeo and Juliet" I'm going to crack. My head feels like it's about to explode becuase I have finals this week and basically didn't get to do much real studying because I had HOMEWORK to finish over the weekend! I might have been able to avoid a bit of it if I'd planned better, but jeez, I'm only 15 and I need to relax and have a life! I'm really stressed and on top of it I think it's going to be that time of the month again. Ugh this sucks! And tomorrow is my last full day of classes; Wed-Fri I have exams and then next week I have like 2 days and I'm free! But compared to last year, when I was loosing weight and weighed around 163 lbs, I feel terrible. Last year I actually looked forward to summer and shopping, but now I'm like WTF becuase I haven't weighed this much since 2006 and I'm majorly upset. SORRY ABOUT THIS LONG AND POINTLESS POST BUT I HAD TO LET IT OUT!

I will try to be more organized next year! But...50 PAGES?! *jaw drops* God bless you! That really deserves a round of applause!

Reply from Motivated, Age 18 - 06/02/08 - IP#: 71.192.26.xxx it's good to vent. are you planning on going to college? if so, you need to develop capable habits to deal with the stress youre feeling now because i had to write about 50pgs (NOT exaggerating) including independent research and focus groups for my finals/semester-long projects. that does not include all of the smaller papers/readings i had to do the week before everything else was due. think of it like an endurance exersize- you're building stamina for the future.
Reply from Claire, Age 19 - 06/02/08 - IP#: 64.131.205.xxx also yeah around 2006-07 I used to weigh like freakin 159! and I was so much more energetic then but I remember still thinking..."goddd I'm so fat, I gotta drop 30 fast!" ..I should've cherished being 159 for the time being but I just screwed it up by letting stress take over my life and turning to food once again. I wish I weighed that much again and now getting there seems like such a hard thing to do! I wish I hadn't gained back in the first place. It makes me feel like a failure, really. :(
Reply from Claire, Age 19 - 06/02/08 - IP#: 64.131.205.xxx Hey Flower Fawn, I feel the exact same way! there's so much to deal with and on top of that I have to manage my weight and find time for exercise...and I'm always so stressed with other thigns like school and work that I just don't feel like it! I just fell asleep on my bed like an hour ago because of how tired I was..and I remmeber before sleeping I was like, ok I'm going to put on a cd and dance and burn some cals but then my eyes just close and I'm napping away. They should really cut us teenagers some slack, I mean I feel as if we get way too much work and it really sucks how we have to balance everything out. It's hard :( but I understand you fully. Just keep going and eventually it will get better! I should take my own advice too.
