im sick of looking in the mirror and seeing fat! im 19 and should be confident and happy about my appearence but im not... this is something i need to do for me and no one else... and thats why im on here, i cant do it alone and i know many other people on here are experiencing the same hard times as i am and if i have someone there to have my back i can do this... especially if they understand me... so if n e one wants to buddy up and is going through the same difficultys as me... pm me...

starting weight ~> 201 pounds

Current weight ~> 194 pounds

Current Goal ~> 185 pounds

Over all Goal ~> 140 pounds

at home i have my boyfriend to support me and my best friend, but niether are overweight, actually my boyfriend is a wrestler so he is in the best shape any one could be in... so they dont understand the way i am feeling...

i want to lose at least 50 of the 60 pounds by my 20th birthday:eek:
 
this is me now.... Pics...

this is me now weighing at 194 pounds...i look bad in this pic and it alone is modivating to make me lose weight...
 
alot of people are like NO WAY when i tell them i weigh 194... i dont know why... i also have a bigger frame i am definitley not small boned... which probably contributes... but the fact is, im still fat and i hate it, but yes you did make me feel alot better...
 
You are built a lot like I am, shay. You have an apple shape too, and my middle is a pain to keep down. Looks like your legs stay pretty slender too. You have beautiful eyes and hair.

You came to the right place. feel free to check diaries for what is working for everyone. What sort of exercise do you like? I chose the easiest there is, walking. Love it! This place will really keep your motivation up!

Keep coming back, and before you know it, youll be there!

i have a bigger upper body then lower body yes, i hate my arms and stomach, but i dont mind my legs, mostly because they are mostly muscle.but i still refuse to wear shorts... i bike ALOT in the summer i bike everywhere and i think that is why my body is like that...i know i have beautiful eyes lol its my best feature in my opinion lol thanks for pointing that out...i prefer to bike and walk , but i want to find some good exercise videos that i can get into, i want to find out where to get tai bo tapes... or kick boxing or arobix... or all of them lol i would like to get into a routine... but i do walk as much as possible but with living in canada with the snow and everything it is hard to get out on a nice day , especially when they are hard to come by....i was also wondering if anyone knew how to make tastie Healthy smoothies or anything like that...

never really ate lunch just a bunch of bad snacks, ice cream, crackers, munch on bologne out of the package...chips if they were in the house... just a bunch of junk , even ate when i was bored not because i was hungry...
 
Wow, you're beautiful :) I would never have guessed 194 (the weight I'm at). How tall are you, by chance?

Oh..bacon. I'm so jealous. I love bacon. We don't get it often, but when we do I get very protective of it and will bite someone's hand off if they try and steal it from me.

It looks like you're doing a fantastic job!

you are right! you DO have the power. The best part of any endeavor as well as the worst part, is that when we screw up, we have to accept the blame...but when we do it with determination, and hard work, we get to take all the credit! You will make those goals, just keep your mind and attitude strong. One day at a time!
 
i screwed up today. i ate food at work. i at 2 cheeseburgers, and a baked apple turnover, but i know thats not the end of the world. i realised i made a mistake, and i am going to excercise tonight and get back on track by having a healthy dinner. every body has a slip up once in a while... but they shouldnt give up because of one little mistake...right?
 
i went out and bought a digital scale

i went out and bought a digital scale because my scale at home was giving me a different reading everytime i stood on it...so i brought it home, stood on it , looked down, and felt like i was going to throw up. the scale read 210 pounds... 16 pounds more then i thought was...i am so depressed and this really was a reality check for me... i have to beat this. but i am so sad i am MY HIGHEST WEIGHT EVER AND I THOUGHT I LOST WEIGHT. when i was on herbal magic i went down to 185...

i need support...im depressed!:(
 
No don't give up! We all slip up, my goodness my weekend was a nightmare. We just have to dust ourselves off and get back at it! Don't worry, your doing great! Take care girl.

cheers

Exactly right... so you ate a couple cheeseburgers and a turnover... big deal. You'll do better on the dieting tomorrow and you'll feel better tonight after you get some exercise in. Keep up the good work...
Focus on progress, not perfection. :D
