Weight is a touchy subject. My hubby hates when I talk about it. So I bottle it all up and express myself on here. It works for me. I wish I could talk to him about it, but when I do I find myself being poisonous because suddenly he will start worrying about calories and junk like that. Pick your battles, but don't get walked over either. Good luck! |

I completely understand. And just to boost your confidence, I have always read that those last 10 pounds are the hardest! So outta all the people who have been amazing and lost 100 lbs, they too dealt hardest with what we have! I have lost about 10 lbs and have 8 more to go. Its SO HARD!! Its like, how much less can I eat and how much more can I exercise, haha. I'm just so tired of being small, but not small enough. All of the girls that I go to the lake with are smaller than me...it sucks. I'm tired of being the big one, when I'm not big at all.....makes me so mad....
Maybe we could use this forum thread to encourage each other through those last 10-15 lbs! Good luck!! |

So I have fallen off the wagon! Here I am back again tho! I luckily haven't messed up too bad, because my predicted goal date is still in reach according to caloriecount. So I was down to 128, but went on vacation that sent me to 135. The last week I've been doing moderate recovery from it! So now I'm 133. 8 pounds to go till Christmas! Good luck everyone!!!!!!!! |

I almost feel silly but........ 4 years ago my goal for Christmas was to be able to fit into a Hollister size 7. Last month, I went there and tried on size 5's that fell off of me! So I proudly bought a size 3. :) I can't believe I went from a 9 to 3! |

Okay, I'm completly monopolizing this forum?!?!! But...I just have to post my success! It's been so AMAZING! And freeing, and fantastic and easier than it should ever be for me, and exhilarating! I'm down another 3 pounds! yay! I am officially 130.5 5.5 lbs away from my ultimate goal! My mini-goal is 129 and I'm so close, but so excited for the final 5.5 to be gone! My 'diet' is to eat 1200-1400 calories a day. It's been working so far! I need to up my exercise though because I need to tone it up as well as shrinking it! lol. |

I love forums with my height! lol So I'm 5'7 and down to 130 SW:144 CW:130 GW:125 And my motivation is that I've spent so many years hating how I look that I finally decided to just not over eat and now that I'm getting closer to my goal weight I will find out if I have deeper issues or if the weight was really all I hated. It's just a search to find what makes me happy. |

Just thought I'd update...I am officially back to my highschool weight! I'm happy and can't wait for even more success. I reevaluated my goals and decided that 129 would be plenty for me at 5'7. So I'm 5-6 pounds away from my goal and am ready to be there! ] Good luck everyone! |

Maybe it's just you and me, but in my mind everyone MUST feel this way. My hubby is always yelling at me not to suck in my tummy when he touches me, but I can't help it! It's like a reflex! lol. We need to start loving ourselves(imperfections and all!) or else how can we let someone else love us? Good luck on the self esteem issues...I don't know how to fix them..but you're definitely NOT alone in how you feel.

Sure, why not?! I have set a goal for myself to be between 118-135. Right now I'm at 135 and want to see what my body looks like at the lower end of my scale. So 119 in 9 weeks! Let's do this. It is a seriously aggressive goal and we are all going to be cranky and frustrated and totally HOT by the time we end! I feel so serious about this and I want to see what my body can look like if I just practice control! So what's the plan? Should we weigh in weekly? Set exercise and caloric intake goals? You name it, I'll try my best to stick with it! Let's do this!! |

First of all, love the post. I often feel fat with a bmi of 21 and can completely relate to how this post should be a better example of self love. Second, as for the comment about overweight people living longer...I really wouldn't doubt it! Think about it..they are getting all their daily nutrients in for sure, how can you not eat everything when you eat that much? As for me, a 'thin' person I will probably die first because I'm too thick sculled to eat all my daily intake at a risk of having a fat butt... for real?? Let's not just beat each other down...we do a good enough job of that on ourselves.
As for the OP she obviously just wanted to share how loving YOU is much more important than envying others...
As for me, I will continue my efforts in accepting myself. |

Figure out what type of eater you are and you might just find the answer to permanent weight loss.
Take the Diet Profile Test and learn to avoid the pitfalls and self-sabotage that often come with your personal profile.
