Ht. 5'6", Start: 235 lb, Today: 229 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 130 lb - Hi everyone! I'm so glad I found this place, I've been trying to go it alone but it's so hard, I've only managed 6lbs in the last 4 weeks. I think it's just because I've been obese for so many years, it's really hard to break the habit of eating ALL the time, and the wrong kinds of foods. I'm soo ready to turn it all around now though! I'd love to hear your stories, and any tips you might have :) Good luck! xoxo

Ht. 5'7", Start: 194 lb, Today: 194 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 147 lb - I've been struggling with my weight all my life and have gained ten pounds over the last few months, putting me into the obese category :( My BMI is 30.4 and I'm thirty pounds overweight, but one day I would like to get down to 147, which means losing 47 lbs. I've a long way to go but I know I need to do this, I'm not happy with my appearance and also I'm scared of the health risks - I need to lose a lot of weight around my belly, it's 43 inches atm which I know is dangerous. I really want to lose weight as I'm starting college and want to be healthy and confident... it would be nice to have a motivational mate to email most days etc around the same age, male or female, with similar weight loss goals... I think it would help me stay on track. Comment if you're interested!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 216.6 lb, Today: 216.2 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 160 lb - Today was my first day of my new resolve to get healthier. It was difficult last night to not eat because it has become a habit for me to wake up in the middle of the night and go downstairs and have something to eat, possibly grab a soda and go back to bed. Last night I was up for a couple hours because the cravings wouldn't go away. I hope after a couple of days this will get better. Does anyone have any advice as to how not to eat at night? This evening I'm going to a baseball game. I hope I can resist getting any of the bad food. Wish me luck!!!

Ht. 5'8", Start: 228.5 lb, Today: 224 lb (BMI %tile: 97), Goal: 144 lb - Hey everyone! So I've lost 4 lbs since my last post. I've started college again, and for the past few days, I've reverted back to my horrible eating habits. However, I have been exercising every morning. Now I'm going to really focus on limiting the amount of processed foods I intake. I notice that when I combine junk food and exercise, I get aching cramps that last for the whole day. I also get really tired. So now I'm going to make sure 85% of my diet is composed of healthy foods. I'll try to do another post next Wednesday. God Bless:)

Ht. 5'4", Start: 180 lb, Today: 140 lb (BMI %tile: 81), Goal: 120 lb - I've always been bigger than my friends. Ever since I was a little kid. I went through puberty sooner so I was also a lot taller. But now I'm the same height ,if not shorter, than my friends but I'm still bigger than them. I've always been so self conscious about myself. Never letting myself be me becuase I always felt like I had to be thin. I mean it was hard when all my friends were size 1 and 0, while I was a 14/15. They got to try on each others clothes and I had to sit and watch. Not to mention how hard it was to get a guys attention. It has been a huge conflict for me. I always feel awful about myself when om around my best friends, but I really love them . I just want to feel good about my self no matter where I am or who I'm with. I want to feel confident enough to think the guy I like could like me back. Instead of feeling like I'm not pretty enough. I just want people to like me for who I am.

Ht. 4'10", Start: 192 lb, Today: 185 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 120 lb - Dear Bulletin Board,
I was always the big girl in the family of skinny people. Even as a baby I was chubbier than every one else. Now as a teenager I am still bigger then my family and my friends. They all say they love me just the way I am. That make me hapy but for only a little while...I use to be disgusted with my self and never really told any one. I want to be able to into a store and not feel to fat. I want to be a healthy girl. Whose family, when they think she is not listen, talk about what will happen when she get diabetes...I want to look good but also feel good inside. I love myself but it never seems enough to make me want to loss weight. I've lost some pounds that always happen before I give up. This time though is going to be different. I want to be happy even if i'm not as skinny as my friends or family. I just want to be healthy and feel beautiful. I know this is a long road for me to conquer but I will conquer it!
<3 Ricky =)

Ht. 5'4", Start: 197 lb, Today: 192 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 130 lb - Doesn't it suck to be overweight? I feel so self contious when i am trying on clothes. This year it was so hard for me to find clothes that i felt bad about myself especially because i have been trying to lose weight. I do situps everyday and go for a walk and i've only lost 5 pounds in 3 weeks. I have been chubby since like the third grade and i hate it. Especially because i'm trying to lose weight but its not working.My friends and I are always joking about my weight. It doesn't really bug me all of the time but sometimes when i'm feeling really bad about myself i find it really annoying. Also, I just gotta say, don't you just hate it when skinny people say that they're fat? I do! it drives me crazy. My best friend thinks she's chubby when she can shop pretty much anywhere just as long as she likes what is there. She's like 90... (view more)You know what i mean?P.s i am the same person that posted something before i just needed to fix how much i weigh cuz i weighed myself. (view less)
