I have went from 210 to 179 and it has not been easy, but I didn't want to stay overweight forever, so I needed change. You CAN do it, if you try really hard!
Reply from ashley!, Age 15 - 03/31/05 - IP#: 206.222.221.xxx i would suggest not getting the surgery. You are not massively overweight. It'll be alright. All you need to do is calm down and think about what kind of things you could do to lose some pounds. Write them down on a piece of paper and post them up somewhere so everyday you see it. Make goals for your weight loss. To start out, try not drinking pop and having alot of water. also try to cut out some junk food, and maybe exercise for 20 minutes to start. good luck!
