From Tarah, Age 15 - 07/02/11 - IP#: 67.162.78.xxx Click here to reply Ht. 5'5", Start: 180 lb, Today: 140 lb (BMI %tile: 79), Goal: 120 lb - My doctor said I was really obese and that I was a risk of diabetes. I lost a lot of weight and I felt proud. I got a lot of attention from everyone and finally got those solos at dance. But then my mom said I looked to awfully skinny and my doctor said I need to gain 'some' weight.But I don't know how much. At first losing weight was so hard, but then I changed my lifestyle and got the hang of it and it was easier. Now I feel like I can control my weight. All of you out there don't give up cause in the end you will feel proud of yourself!
