Ht. 5'3", Start: 200 lb, Today: 194 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 130 lb - I haven't been here in probably about 5 years, and in those years I've definitely seen some extremes in my weight. During the summer I reached my highest weight, 210lbs. But, after 4 months at college, I'm down to about 194 and it feels great. It sounds cliche, but I want to start off fresh with the new year. Any help with motivation and tips would be appreciated. Good luck everyone!

Well a weightloss buddy is always helpful! Lots of fresh fruit, veggies, lean protein and whole grains. Workout! Find something you love. I hate sports but found out I love the cardio classes at my local YMCA. Or walk for an hour everyday. It's free and tones you up. Good luck!

The one thing that I have found proven to drop off the weight is eating a partially raw diet. Raw diet means lots of fruits and veggies and making meals out of them. Check out www.happyfoody.com
