Ht. 5'1", Start: 182 lb, Today: 173 lb, Goal: 125 lb - Hi all! I've been battling weight loss as long as I can remember, and I've decided that it is finally time to get myself in gear. I'm away at college, but I've actually lost 10 pounds. Not because I've been healthier or working out, but mostly because the food is so bad that I don't eat as much, which is a good thing I guess. Last night I took a jazzercise class at my school which was actually a lot more fun than I thought. It combined cardio with a total body workout, much more exciting than just running on the tread mill. I'm hopin to continue with the class 2 nights a week. This morning I did the elliptical for 20 minutes (4 miles), did the weight machines, and walked a mile on the track. For breakfast I had a bowl of cheerios and grapes. Around 11 I had a special K 90 cal bar, and for lunch around 2:30 I had a veggie wrap (cheese, lettuce, tomato, pickles, olives, &... (view more)Hi all!

I'm going to try to find something healthy from the cafeteria for dinner..although there are not many healthy choices here. I also went food shopping and bought some healthy foods like fat free yogurt, hummus, and whole wheat crackers. This time I really want to keep up with it!! Good luck all!! (view less)

Ht. 5'6", Start: 230 lb, Today: 175 lb, Goal: 130 lb - Hey everyone! So i'm sure no one remembers me, but i used to post on here occasionly during the summer and probally before that. Anyways just a quick little about me. As you can see I used to weigh 230 pounds. I'm now down to 175 thanks to exersize and a sensible diet. I'm very happy with the progress i've made but i still have alot more to accomplish. Right now my biggest problem would have to be eating. I eat alot, but I eat pretty healthy. However sometimes I do slip off into these binges for some unknown reason. As far as exersize goes, I've taken up running and am acually running my first 5k at the end of May in memory of a friend who died of cancer in early December, and am starting cross country practice in the summer. I also take cardio kickboxing and pilates classes and spend quite a bit of time at the gym. I don't know what made me think to come back to blubberbusters... (view more)Hey everyone!

I think it will give me the motavation i need to finish what I've already started. I would love to have a weight loss buddy though. Possibly someone sharing similar stats. If your interested, even if your stats aren't like mine, feel free to email me at klitzka2010@yahoo.com. I'm going to try to make a weekly post from now on, it's just finding the time that's hard. Good luck everyone! (view less)

Ht. 5'7", Start: 320 lb, Today: 320 lb, Goal: 280 lb - Hey guys! I'm not new to this site but I have returned to make a last and final attempt at losing this weight but first i'm not setting big goals anymore because I realize that I fail at that. Since being at college I have gained so much weight and it is embarrasing so before school is out May 10th I hope to be 280 or somewhere near that weight because I weighed 280 when I started college in May and over the course of the summer I plan to lose 30-40 pounds, I usually lose rapidly. I am going to finally purchase a tredmill for my home for summer vacations. My doctor recommended that I use Dr. Ians Extreme Fat Smash Diet to start out because it teaches healthy eating habits and a healthier lifestyle so I am hoping for the best because I am a sucker for candy, ice cream, pop and cookies, it is going to be soooo hard but I am determined to enjoy my sophmore year of college, i'm tired of being the "fat girl out" all my friends have the perfect bodies, i'm almost 19 for heavens sake lol it's time for a change, if anyone wants a diet buddy just reply :)

Ht. 5'5", Start: 184 lb, Today: 181 lb, Goal: 150 lb - Hi. This is the first time I've been on Blubber Busters in...wow, a REALLY long time! I hope everyone is doing well. A while ago I was 184 lbs, the I got down to about 164, then some really tough things happened in my family and with all the added stress--bam!--the weight piled right back on. My 15th birthday is coming up at the end of this month and by my sweet 16 I really like to be at least 20-30 lbs. I just read this amazing book called The Diet for Teenagers Only, which I plan to follow. I just started this week but find it hard to incorporate exercise into my life. Any tips? Thanks! :P

I desperately need advice and guidance as well as encouragement. Please help me accomplish this.

What about when you and your freinds go out to eat together and all of your skinny friends eat 1-2 slices of pizza while you have already eaten 3 and still wanting more????
Thanks for your help
