Ht. 5'2", Start: 160 lb, Today: 148 lb, Goal: 130 lb - wow ok i started trying to lost weight over the summer. it's been a little over a month and i've lost about twelve pounds. it's been really hard, and really tiring, but i feel like i accomplished alot. i do know that i have a really long way to go though, and im really scared that im not going to be able to make it to 130 by the time school starts. im scared about that, and im also scared that by the time i reach 130, it may not be enough and ill still look and feel over-weight. its kinda weird though, because ive learned alot about myself while losing weight, i really had to look at myself and see why the reasons i eat and it was mainly because i felt bad about myself. i had to see who and what happened so that i felt this way. another thing is that i had to find outlits instead, wheni felt that way, instead of eating. its helped alot and i feel alot better.

even if you don't make it to 130 (you COULD but it wouldnt be healthy and youd have to work your butt off) people will definately notice the difference and be like wow! so don't stress about it too much. just keep doing what you're doing and you're body will lose the weight at the pace it wants to. good luck! you're doing amazing :)

yeah. you won't make it to 130 before school starts- but you can make it to 140! and then lose the rest through the school year. you're doing great, though- good luck!
