11 pounds probably is more than you think.  Here's some perspective:  11 pounds is 

 a very, very large baby

a small turkey

bigger than a gallon milk jug

 

That being said, if you want to adjust your goal weight down a bit, 125-130 should still be fine for someone 5'4"

Good Luck and a big congrats on losing all the weight  that you have already.

Thanks=) i never thought of it that way 11 pounds is way more than i thought

 

 

i know its hard but try to push those thoughts out of your mind, youll be beautiful! =) everyone is in their own ways, confidence is key! someone could be decent looking but with the right confidence everyone will notice them even more! how you feel about yourself shows when ppl look at you, love yourself and ppl will start to notice! =)

i was totallllly addicted to fast food like 6 months ago, i seriously would go to mcdonalds like 4 times a week and get ten chicken nuggets a large fry and a large coke, or i would go to burger king and get like 16 chicken nuggets and ranch..those were my places and my orders..i dont go to those places anymore, but if i went there now if i had no choice and had to go there i would get a happy meal or something..i agree with Linz8777, you can eat it from time to time, just pick the healthiest thing on the menue which is hard sometimes, just thinking about eatting these things before i would want them so much! but now i dont crave them at all =)

gross fact, i watched supersize me in school like 2nd period, it didnt gross me out it made me want it, so my friends and i went to mcyds for lunch that day, how does supersize me make u want to eat that food, it should make u all grossed out by it..not me apparently..

oh and! i was sooo addicted to pizza, i would go get 2 slices of pizza and a pop every day on lunch for like 2 weeks straight..and eat like half a large pizza and not be full....now i never eat pizza the closest i get is a pepperoni lean pocket haha

i used the slimquick pills with hoodia and omg it works great, with working out and eatting right, it keeps ur mind of eatting as much but not to the point u forget to eat like some..but i used them liek a year ago and i lost like 15 pounds while using them, then i stopped using them as well as working out and eatting right and gained the weight back so i dont know what happens if u stop taking them and keep workingout and eatting right if u gain some back or none back or whatever, but i didnt have "withdrawls" or anything like ppl do with other kinds..the best way to loose weight its slow and steady, ive learned that but they do work and they dont give u a fast heart beat or u know any of that crap...

thanks everyone, its not getting any easier, but my appetite is getting a little better, he came over today and got his things, and gave me a bag full of EVERYTHING ive ever given him, pictures, cards, stuffed animals, an album i made him, birthday things..like EVERYTHING i think hes still playing a game trying to get me to look at it all and feel bad and call him, and yeah it made me ball my eyes out but im staying strong, that happening today kinda made me not wana eat again, but i have been..thanks for the support i need it

my goal is like 37 pounds away..not 11..that was just my by christmas goal, but thats okay, ill make my goal 6 pounds instead thanks for the advice

i tried the pills and i got the "total cleanse" pills too, and they havent done anything to me. im still loosing weight at the same rate i was before, which im happy with, but maybe its somehow affecting me in a way im unaware of??

i havent been to Mcdonalds in forever either, when i used to eat really bad, i watched that super size me thing about how gross mcyds is, and when it was over i was like u know what i want to go there and eat now , it didnt faze me, but now i think about it and im like. seriously what was i thinking, i ate there like 3ish times a week and i would get like a big meal thing. pop fries the chicken things. thats where all this extra weight came from! i wish i could go back in time and stop myself. oh well im fixing my mistakes now.

i ordered them, and i got the "total cleanse" too and nothing special is happening to me

but the pills took like 2 weeks to come? and i tried to call the # to cancel so they wouldnt charge me like 80 bucks a month every month, and the phone number, wasnt a real # or something it wouldnt work..

so i canceled my debit card, and had to get a new one so they cant charge me anything else... lame

oh and im 19 years old, if that matters?

thanks =)

so basically the water that may be retained from all the sodium i have one day wont turn in to fat or stay forever or anything..

good to know!

thats great your down 20 pounds! im only down 7 so far, till i weigh myself today hopefull im down like 3 more pounds!

i have friends like that too, they can eat whatever they want and dont gain a pound, and i am jealous, we have to work really hard to loose weight and they would have to work really hard to gain weight if they ever wanted to, ugh, unfair...thats so good you arent letting it bother you, i have to bring healthy snacks to movies n stuff with my friends and they get like huge buttery and salty pop corn and huge pops and candy bars...but they shouldnt have to change how they eat around us just b/c we are trying to eat better, its not their fault they dont gain weight and we do, but her "rubbing it in your face" isnt very nice.

i totally thing its possible, i know people say you should loose more than 1 to 2 pounds a week to be healthy, but lke that really happens sometimes u loose 1 to 4 pounds a week depending on how hard you work out, how you eat, and how far along into loosing weight you are, when you first start it comes off faster you know?

ive lost 7 pounds so far in 2 weeks, and my goal is to loose 30 MORE by christmas and i SO CAN DO IT, and u can too, we just have to stick to counting calories and working out, its hard sometimes! but just think how happy you will be when you are at your goal weight!
