My goal is to go to Japan healthy, not obese. I can't go there tall and huge, I'll be shot down. D:

starting weight: 349

finale weight: 164 (258 currently)

Height: 6'

Age at time of weight loss: 18

Amount of weight lost: 91

Method: 2000+ calories, working out 6 days a week for at least an hour

Time frame: 8 months

Anything else you want to say: I still have a crap load left to lose, but it's much easier (and harder) than I thought it would be. Much better than dieting. :)

(( Hi watergirl. :D ))

That's a good idea! Everyone instead of just the fat. *w*

Hmm...I wouldn't cut out all sweets. If you did that before, I'm guessing once you lost the weight, you started munching on them again. I think now's a great time to start learning moderation instead of starvation. :) People last longer when they're not hungry or craving things.

Shay...I didn't like Shay, but I didn't want her to leave. :( But she did get a hell of alot of attention for her size since she was on the edge of death (or something equally dramatic that Jillian said).

Danny's friend...How sad. When he came back that last time, I thought, "This didn't go well at all..." Seeing him again...It was a little sad, but a real life situation. Sometimes you just lose focus.

@attinew: UEE's actually pretty normal (body wise). But there are some pictures of her that have been photoshopped to hell. XD I'm tired of seeing her though. <.< But everyone needs their 15 minutes.

@grrirox: The whole Jay thing is just silly. I thought that he had cursed the country of Korea the way people were acting, and then it was the opposite as soon as he left. It's so stupid! They need to just bring him back.

BEAST is very poppy to me. XD They're cute though. I like Rain's boys better (Bi Babies~). I think they're both cool in there own way though.

Relax. x_x

You did go off the deep end a little saying "its one of the saddest days of my life," and all the other stuff. Of course there are people on here that are 200+ (How do you think they feel if you're moaning and groaning about "feeling" fat at a mere 155 pounds?).

Be nice to smwhipple, their advice is actually quite good. You might have some issues if this freaks you out.

If you need some advice/encouragement, by all means, ask for it. That's what this forum is for and you're certainly not the first to hit a wall or "feel fat." That's what this whole site is for!

Don't base you feelings off of a picture. Even models can get some funky images. So just relax.

Also, a number on the scale isn't the ONLY measure of success, it's just the easiest on to obtain. There's how you feel, how you look, and measurements and a whole lot of other things. This is a lifestyle change, not a race, so it's not like you can stop once you get there anyway.

Be happy you lost the 40 pounds and, as my grandmother says, "Put on your big girl panties" and move on. <3

((This is really ironic, since I've made a slew of crybaby posts. <.<))

I know what you're talking about. I'm not asian, but I know of those artists.

I think it does go with the territory because they want to put their best foot forward as a country. Of course there are fat/overweight/average sized asians, but if their top groups and idols had saggy bellies and jelly thighs, people would think that they were letting themselves go if that was the cream of the music crop. ((And you would you want to see BEG's hip dance with swishy bellies? ))

I have no doubt that SNSD has caused a number of eating disorders to try and gain "honey thighs" and -0 waist lines, but there are plenty of American celebrities that have the same effect. Plus, many KPop stars have confessed to diets to lose those extra pounds (Did Miryo diet before comeback?).

I also think that the stereotype comes from asian body types in general. They are thought to be smaller and more petite, man  or woman. These groups just idolize it, and even with the "beast" boys, there's muscular, but not bulky. Still quite lean.

Korea/Asia wants to look their best to the outside world, just like everyone else does. If America could take back their new fat look, I'm sure they would in a heart beat. :)

Fat movie.

There was a teenager, in highschool, who was obese, and he was going to get gastric surgery. But the thing that got me was, he never tried! They would take him to the gym, and he would go and eat pizza instead! I thought that it was such a waste to get the surgery as if it was his only option, when he never even tried to begin with (I have nothing against the surgery, but that guy irritated me). Then, the night before, his family was  cooking dinner, and he started crying about. Like, sobbing. I was so disgusted with him acting that way with food, that I couldn't help but take a look at myself. How can I say anything about him when I'm just as fat (I think...I don't remember his size).

I had plenty of embarrassing moments, but none of them every made me want to actually lose weight, just crash diet.  Other people can't make me lost weight, just me. :)

I started this April on this site, and lost 85 pounds so far, so I guess it was a good movie. XD

Draw! And knit! And Crochet!

Actually, draw out a blanket design, crochet it, then read a book under said blanket. <3

Google. :0

If CC doesn't have it, then some other calorie count site/nutrition site has it I'm sure. Once I know the calorie count, I just type in something similar that has the same calorie count. My way doesn't work if you're trying to watch carbs and fat and such. ;.;

It has to be rigged. I mean, Tracey is the villain. If she left, then it's just a bunch of fun optimistic people who like a little too much cake. XD Everyone needs someone to hate (And make Liz pass out for more drama).

@babygirldebz: Thank you. ^^ I'll make sure to bring it up to my mom and get the ball rolling.

@TheHolla: I guess she thought that I would freak out about anything getting "bigger." She just said, "why are you lifting?" I explained the calorie thing, and, well, that I enjoy it (and it looks hot XD). And she said something about resitance training. I just shrugged and said I'd look into it. XD

Crochet! Or knitting!

I liked the outside food challenge, but at the same time, they took out all the fun out of it. xD

But when you're on the biggest loser, a calorie is a calorie.

...I don't like Shay for some reason. XD Something about her annoys me, but I really hope the best for her. I'm cheering for Dan though. He's lost so much! He's really doing great!
