Hello hello hello!! I've been reading all the inspiring stories and looking at all the motivational pictures and have finally decided to join all of you on this wonderful journey:) First of all I would like to say Hi and introduce myself.. I am a 22 year old female from Ontario, Canada and been struggling with my weight since 18.. thats 4 years now!! & after looking at a photo of myself this past summer while I was in POland I decided I cannot live like this anymore and something had to be done!

When I got back from my trip I immediately went onto a 1,000 calorie diet and went to the gym 5 days a week for the first month (September 2006). Yes, I know.... people say 1,000 calories is nothing and you cannot live of that but I swear to you people I have never EVER felt this good before... and taking vitamins or drinking vitamin enriched waters really helps!!

Okay, so I started at 181 pounds... 5 ft 7... 170 cm.. and WAS overweight... Since September 5th (Sooooo 2 months and 10 days) I have lost a total of 30 pounds and am now at 151... :) I only did the 1,000 calories for a month and then switched back to eating whenever I want but just making healthhhhy choices and no food after 6... and a lottt of green tea!! It really helps... I am currently in school therefore I will post some before :S ouch and IN BETWEEN pics very very soon... today for sure... because my goal weight is 130... therefore I am a little past my half way point:) Still not extatic but I am happy I am losing and not gaining :) yay!!!

P.S.... I stopped drinking alcohol too.... maybe a few drinks a month ... and that helps sooooooooooooooo much!!!

ohh and I cant get those ticker factory things to work!! :(

Im so excited to be here!!!!! Wait for my pics sooooon!!!:D

You're sizzlin' hot !!! you look great just right there, don't get all crazy and get uberskinny. perfect as is.
 
You are beautiful! I've been doing the 1000/day thing and I've noticed how much better I feel. I sleep through the night, waking up is no problem anymore -- early enough to make it to the gym and I'm so energetic the rest of the day! I really see now that I was overstuffing myself before.. I felt so lazy and tired all of the time.

Anyhow. I just found this forum a few minutes ago but your post is one of the first that I found and just wanted to comment on what a motivation you are for me!

HELLO!! I know it has been very long since I have updated but I hit a plateau for about 2 months and stayed at the same weight.... I was loosing hope and thought I would eventually just end up back where I started... but it takes patience... and I am down to 140 now:) Its getting harder and harder and takes much more hard work to lose half as much as in the beginning. Anyways, here are two pictures of me now... Ill be posting more when I get to my goal weight:) Keep up the good work people and remember that you will feel 100% better once your hard work pays off:) You only live once, so be the best you can be, look the way you want to, do everything you always wanted, and you can start right now... its never too late..=]
 
wow you can most definatly see the difference
though to be honest now you look pretty skinny already lol
