So I'm very new to this site. I've been reading so many stories and seeing how far some people have come. You all have truly inspired me to get in shape and meet my goal!!! First off, I'm 5'4" 19 years old and as of right now 152 pounds. One week ago I hit 156 and freaked out (I should be around 135 for my age/height) and decided enough is enough, there's no time to wait around anymore. I need to take control before I let go completely!!!! So I have been keeping close track of my caloric intake, I've been going to the gym regularly, and chugging as much water as I can!! Here are some pics of me....

My goal is to reach 135 at the very least. I want to lose these 17 pounds by christmas at the latest. I'M GOING TO DO IT!! NO LOOKING BACK ONLY MOVING FORWARD FROM HERE NOW
 
:iagree: you are very VERY pretty. Take a few months to get yourself 100% healthy and feeling real good about yourself... and ur man wont be able to keep the guys off of ya... he will need a bat!!! hehe.


best of luck girl!!:hurray:
 
Best of luck to you. Get off to a good start and set mini goals. Give yourself a pat on the back each time you reach a new mini goal but don't be satisifed. Just keep on going and going. You'll have hard times for sure but you just have to stick with it.
 
Thanks for your words of encouragement! I am so anxious to see where this all goes... a little impatient! But having read through other people's stories, I know that I need to give this time and I can do it. I've already lost 5 pounds since I started trying to lose weight:hurray: .... now it's off to the gym! :)
 
I dont often reply here, but a couple things.

Best of luck to you, you are lucky to be at a point where your weight loss doesnt have to be dramatic to make yourself happy and healthy.

I love the way you look now, you have the body i like in a woman, just the perfect curves. I wouldnt want you to lose weight if i was in the picture lol. That being said, do what makes yourself happy, and good luck in doing so. you are stunningly beautiful and will truly braek hearts at your goal weight

Thanks for the compliments!!! I SO appreciate it. I have always felt comfortable with my curves and my weight, but I wanted to make a change in my lifestyle and start being healthy. Most of all, I want to be in shape. That is why I only set my goal to 135 pounds. And it is funny you say that about if you were in the picture, you wouldn't want me to lose weight! My boyfriend is happy for me, but at the same time, he is kind of jealous because he thinks once I get to where I want to be, guys will be all over me! He just texted me this morning while I was at the gym, "I'm gonna work out when I get home from work. I don't want to be the fatty in the relationship" HAHA

THANKS AGAIN!!! YOU MADE MY DAY :)
 
You look AMAZING ! Just the fact that you posted a swim suit pic says it all. You already have all the self confidence and losing another 20lbs will just boost that. I know how it feels to lose 20 lbs and what a difference it makes. I would love to be at your starting weight. Everyone has a different confort zone., When I was 180 I felt really good . My fav jeans fit etc...I am going all for it this time around. best of luck
