Well everyone, I am still 5'7", still 175lbs. but I've decided to do something about it! My mom just ordered an "ABslide" and I think it will really be able to help me out. I am also going to start going to WeightWatchers with my mom and brother so I can learn healthy eating habits. It's almost spring so I'm going to start riding my bicycle alot. And my Mom is going to buy a stationary bicycle too! :) I really feel like I'm on the path to a better and healthier life! :)

You are SOOOOOOO lucky!!! I REALLY want an AbSlide!!
One of my friends at school has been using it. She's gotten good results, but she says that it kills your back. I would LOVE to have a stationary bike! We don't even have a treadmill, for crying out loud. I hope you appreciate all that you have. God Loves You!!! God Bless!!!

Today I went to the local recreation centre and I went swimming for 2 hours! My mom is going to buy me a membership there so I can go more often :) There are basketball (which I love!), tennis, badminton and volleyball courts and the pool and a cardio room! I am sooo happy I really hope I can lose about 30 pounds or more I'd love to be 140lbs!

Mags,
You are doing the right thing. I am now eating healthily and I feel great! Not only have I lost 16 pounds steadily but I feel fitter and my skin has got better. I am nearly at my goal weight. I felt bad at the beginning and a bit despondent but I am nearly there now but I will not go back to my old eating habits because I feel so much better now. I will never be thin - and I don't want to be - because that is genetics but neither will I be wobbling all over the place like I was before. Just remember that if you are positive then you will get there and don't worry if you have a bad day, just start the next day afresh. Good luck.
