Hey, I've never been on this sight before, so i don't know if anyone ever even answers these things, but i needed some help. I'm in synchronized swimming, if anyone knows what that is... but anyway, my best friend is in swim too, and she is 1 year older than me. Well, lets just say that she has no problems with her weight of around 100 pounds, so she always makes me feel a little inferior, especially since she gets the most attention. But she is still my best friend, and here's why im writing. Next season (september) she's going to be moving to a higher team, and usually I'd be moved up with her even though I'm not old enough because 1) my coach has faith in my and 2) im pretty good at swim. But i don't think that she's gonna move me up this year unless i do something about my weight. I weigh 225 pounds, I am 5'5 and i am 14. I need some advice of people who have gotten to their goal weight or people who have lost a lot of weight. Please help with workouts you like, how much you workout, what you eat, eating times, special tips, and how much you personally lost at certain times, like a month, or a week, or whatever. THANK YOU!
