From Lucy, Age 15

Ht. 5'4", Start: 144 lb, Today: 142.5 lb, Goal: 120 lb - Ugh! I've been doing awful! I don't even want to go on the scale, because I’m afraid of what I’ll see. I keep making up excuses as to why I should eat that ice-cream or have that extra helping. And yeah, it doesn't help that my mom is always buying stuff like ice-cream and frozen pizza. It's hard to fight temptation when your surrounded by it! And both my brother and my mother are over-weight, so I don't know why she keeps buying all this stuff! She bought these donuts two days ago, and my brother finished the whole box! I know she's trying to get us what she thinks kids want and should have at this age, but it's not helping us!! I have to lose this weight you guys. I'm serious; I can't be like this anymore. I don't want to be like this, and I’m really frustrated because I just can't seem to do it. I wear size 7-9 pants! I look awful in pictures! I’m so flabby! I can’t stand it! I’m so upset with myself. How did I let myself get like this?
