Hi everyone, all my life i have considered myself overweight. i never seemed to care about it until about my 8th grade year. i had been lookin at pics of myself while playing basketball and i realized how much i hated the way i looked. so i sat down with my mom and stepdad and they talked to me telling me that i could make a change, and so i did. my motivation was, i am embarassed to admit, money that i would get from my parents if i lost a certain amount of weight. Then, i weighed 200 lbs!! now, i have lost between 40 and 48 lbs, and i weigh between 150 and 158. i am definitly happy that i have lost this weight, but i need to lose mayb 10 pounds and i would b ecstatic. i need the support and any ideas from ppl!!! thank u soooo much!
