Your mother told you not to use a treadmill because you could possibly get disc degeneration? That is insane, people run, and exercise every singly day. I see no reason why you shouldn't get one, unless you already have back problems, in which case you should talk to your doctor before starting any exercise program... I mean, it surely is possible, but you are young and problems are much less likely to occur due to your exercising now than if you put it off another 10+years.

Edit. Also, your body loses and gains weight in predetermined areas. It's great to do different exercises, but none will guarantee that you will lose weight in the area that you are working. I'm sure you will slim your hips and but eventually if you eat healthy, and exercise though. :) Best wishes.

Okay...

So I have to admit I am teensy bit proud of myself. Yesterday, the first day of my diet, I broke it. I couldnt even make i to my next shake without going crazy and ordering a pizza...so today I am fighting it. I am finding other better things to do, and in one hour and 12 minutes I can have my next shake...yay! Go me!
 
HEY GUYS!!!

Im a n00b, but I finally decieded to lose the extra pounds I have accumulated over the 20 years (well im just tired of being the fat friend lol). Anyways I turned 20 about a month ago and I started goin to the YMCA. I got about 80-90 pounds to lose not sure how much Im gonna stop at. Seems like trying to climb Mount Everest. Anyways this seems like great place to start and keep me motivated, and also to get my self esteem up lol ( Im kinda shy lol ). So I would love some buddies lol, you know since im new and all. Anyways thanks for reading my post.

Peace!

Pirate_Knight
 
Pirate_Knight, welcome! We're full of support and advice here, although we don't all follow our own, haha. If you have questions or anything feel free to ask. :D

Also, you've already taken a great big step by joining the Y. Good job! (now I probably should..)
 
HaHaHa thanks Nolabone.

Now all i need to do is start eating right :S.

Oh well. NO PAIN NO GAIN ( or loss in this case ).

Pirate_Knight
 
Great attitude PirateKnight! And trust me, after a while, those foods will start to seem unappatizing to you anymore, and you won't want to eat them nearly as much.

Oh, and I thought i'd post this for us, I think pretty much everyone one in this thread can relate...

I know, that's why I had to post it. I knew almost every single thing they mentioned! :D I do wish that they would put the good cartoons back on the air though...:D
 
" WHERE THE PLAYGROUND IS WHERE I SPENT MOST OF MY DAYS "

Oh man that takes me back.

LOl another thing that makes you a 90's kid is if you could remember the
original Vivian Banks lol.

Also if you can remember when Mary Kate and Ashley where actualy stars. (FULL HOUSE)

And u remember the original MASK. " SUMBODY SSSSSSSSSSSSSTOP ME "

And you remember Toy Story 1 and 2. "TO INFINITY AND BEYOND" " REACH FOR THE SKY"

Man Yo Yos were The BOMB I miss them :(.

JORDON IS KING!!

hie everyone i'm 19 and im having trouble losing weight. The major problem is prob because I lose motivation easily, and I'm rather sensitive, so whenever someone says I put on weight or look chubby and stuff, I'll get really depressed and upset. What is worse is that I didn't tell my mom or family about my weight loss plans, I dont think my mom will agree to me trying to lose weight. I did lose a lot of weight a few years back, but I gained it all back =( I'm looking for a buddy whom I can talk with or send an email to whenever I feel upset or feel like binging.. so anyone interested can just add me! I'm still constantly struggling with weight issues, and i'm glad that I foudn this thread.. all thes best to all of u out there
 
oh i forgot to add that im waiting to enter university in august, so I do hope to lose quite a bit of weight for university...hopefully that will be an extra motivation for me!

To Roody: I'm so envious that you can ride horses so often! It's not a common thing to ride horses over here, and it's really expensive to take up lessons at the stables; I've only gone riding like twice in my life and that was when I went overseas =(
 
Welcome summerbreeze058! Underage drinking! :eek: J/k.
Summer is the best time to lose weight. There is no stress from school, and there is much more time to exercise! :] I hope you do well. I'm reallllly excited you're back too! haha

But srsly. This thread can't die.

Welcome hayley_cookie also! I, just like you, have neglected to inform my family and friends of my weight loss goals. Well, I haven't told any of my skinny friends, at least. I am certain though, that the more people you DO tell, the easier it will be for you. No one will offer you sweets, and maybe even someone will want to be your exercise buddy. Who knows, but I think you should inform your family. (i know, i'm going to follow my own advice. >_>) Think of it as added motivation. You don't want to dissapoint those people, riiighhht?

As for your mom not agreeing with you on losing weight, I only ask why? Why would she want you to be unhealthy? Unless you already DO have a healthy BMI, I can't see why she'd feel this way.
 
My routine currently is just walking, as often and as much as possible. I'm not sure if it will work, but I enjoy it. I walk for an hour, atleast almost every single day.

I hope to get down to 130-ish by the end of summer. Plz.

I can't wait to get to the point that I reach every summer, where so much time is spent outside, walking, that I don't care about eating. Once I reach that, I'll start losing. Right now I'm eating ice cream on the daily, and binging like there is no tomorrow.

WHO IS READY TO KICK SUMMER IN THE ASS, AND LOSE A BUNCH OF WEIGHT?

*raises hand*

...

wait... school's almost out, so I don't have to raise my hand! :D I'm totally ready to kick some fat arse! :D I want to walk into my sports physical this summer and have the doctor go.."wow, you've lost a lot of weight since the last time you came in."

plus, I want to be able to surprise all my little volleyball friends. :D
 
I'm sure you will Xorie. :D

~~~~~~~~~~~~

Gah, today I weighed myself. 159. LIKE TWO WEEKS AGO I WAS 152.
I'll admit it, I haven't been eating well... But I have done hours of walking, and last night I danced for over 3 hours... I figured today would be a good day to weigh myself, because of all the dancing I did. False.

Basically, I fail.

D: Tomorrow I plan on walking, and not stuffing my face constantly. This has been the pattern of things for months now. I lose weight, then shoot up 5 pounds... blah. I'm just complaing. I need to slap myself.

Any motivation right now would be muchly appreciated.
