Hey. =D
I've known about this site for a long time, and at least once a year I'll come here. Last time I came here I wanted to lose weight (obviously) I was 5'5 and 140lbs. Now I'm 5'5 and a half ;) and 158lbs. But this time I'm going to lose weight for sure. I started on Thursday and I've been doing workouts from the magazine Seventeen. I'm eating alright. So here's my plan: (tell me what you think :)) I will try eat as healthy as possible, lots of protein, good amount of carbs, very small amount of healthy fats, lots of fruits and veggies. If by chance I want something unhealthy, like chocolate, I will just have a very small portion =) I'm going to try eat 1200-1300 calories a day. =) For exercise I do soccer 3x a week, usually an hour, I end up doing about half an hour of walking everyday, and three workouts, which all together takes about an hour and a half, 3-5 times a week, and I have gym 3 times a week for an hour. I'm hoping to lose 40lbs by August, but I highly doubt that. So I'm shooting for the middle of September =) How do you think I'll do?

what your doing is awesome but i think you will lose a little less than 40 but you can always try but never have your hopes up just always believe in yourself and anything can happen

reb, if you aren't fat, why are you here? and if you are going to be here, then at least post helpful comments.

That sound's like a great idea. I'm sure it will work.

That sounds great to me. If you don't meet your weight goal exactly at the time you want too, IT'S OK! Slow and steady always wins the race! Good Luck, and keep us updated on your progress!

I think its great that your holding to seventeen magazine. I challenge u to drink 10 cups of water a day, no soda, cut any sugary cereal or treats out. and if u want chocolate, have only a piece about the size of a penny, and let it melt in ur mouth, trust me. Do this for 2 weeks and u'll see results. and keep moving.
