Today: 250 lb - hi. im new to this site. ive been trying 2 lose weight for months but i cant seem 2 stay motivated. i hate being fat but its hard to lose the weight espeacially when nobody around me seems to care that im big. my boyfriend's never said anything about my weight and he's a fitness instructor and i dont get bullied so i have no motivation. i weigh just over 250 pounds and my size 18 clothes are tight. i dont want 2 be fat for summer again but i dont know where to begin. if anyone has any advice or would like to be weight loss buddies please reply xxx

this is from two days ago, but i thought id reply anyways, i think its excellent that your friends and boyfriend dont have a problem with it, thats not the kind of motivation you need is the negative kind. if they love you, you should have them support you. but i understand how you still wanna loose weight for yourself, just to boost confidence or feel better about yourself in general. my friends and family dont have a problem with me, and i dont get teased or whatnot, but their still reallly supportive, while still saying that no matter what they'll still love me. but, some advice? lots liquids, and the good kind like water and fruit juice, avoid carbonated drinks that are all sugary, at least 30 minutes of excercise a day, stay away from carbs and fatty stuff. see ya later.

Catherine i Know exactly how you feel! My parents don' t want to help me or my friends they all say "your fine the way you are" but im not im unhappy and they dont even understand as they are all skinny. I would love to be your weight loss buddy and I think that if you have someone else to motivate you it may make this a little easier. My stats are 5'9 and about 180 pounds. Email me i've been looking for a buddy for ages! fruit_salad_yummy_yummy@hotmail.com best wishes to you :-)
