I'm obviously new to this forum...to this website. And yes, Im not considered "fat" or "overweight" and all that jazz but I hope that there are people here like me, or that will support me because of this reason. NO, I am not obese, however its extremely hard for me knowing this, knowing that I have the potential to be more healthy, and to lose the measly 15pounds that I want to, but I cant do it. This is what frustrates me, Im so close, and yet everytime I try, I get lazy. or I say, "tomorrow." My procrastination and uncommitted attitude has led me to procrastinate for over a year now. I lose 3pounds, gain four, lose 5pounds gain 3 kinda thing. NO MORE. Im so close. I want to be fit. I want to lose 15pounds. Today. Thats it. Im sick of myself and my laziness. I hope Im not the only one that feels this way. I will keep up with writing here...maybe not the newcomers forum though. but this website. It sure helps seeing and reading other people who are going through the same thing I am.

I've started excercising a couple of days ago...and Ive cut out junk food and am watching the amount of starchy food i take in. Ive statred that 2days ago. I am very grouchy right now .horrible. and as bad as it sounds, frankly I dont care right now. When I get cravings...urgh!hopefully this will pass...any suggestions? what do you guys do during the critical moments???Or for motivation?I need a good habit to start...
 
I'm just like you!
I'm not overweight. I just feel that I'm not at my "fighting weight". I want to be in the best shape for myself and I know I'm not eating right or exercising enough. I remember how I felt when I was in great shape and I want to feel like that again! I'm just lacking motivation for some reason. Ugh...
Anyway.. just wanted to stop by and say hello....
 
I am starting to feel like this too. I have a little extra fat around my back (back fat) but I would like to be at the best shape I could possibly be.
 
I think I could have written your post! I feel the exact same way, I'll do it tomorrow, but those cookies sound so good, I'd rather take a nap than workout, I just ate so I can't workout....the list goes on and on. But it's definitely time to do SOMETHING!

I'm 5'2, around 138 pounds. I've floated between 125 and 130 my entire life, except my two pregnancies which I hit 200 both times. After my son I lost the weight in about 8 months, four months later I was pregnant again. I gained like a crazy woman again, but lost it after about six months. She's now a little over a year old and in the last three months I've gained 10 pounds. It's SO hot out that we don't get outside to play, run, walk, whatever, like I did before it hit 100+ degrees.

Add that to the fact that my eating has gone from "okay" to "awful", that 10 pounds crept up on me. I'm ready though.

I want to be fit. Plain and simple, I'm sick of procrastination. A buddy or two would be great to help out with this too!!!

Good luck everyone with your "quest". I hope we all find that motivation.

I feel exactly the same. I am overweight though. 5'4 and 161lbs. I'd like to be 130lbs. It fine it really hard cause everyone around me says I'm fine the way I am! I don't feel it though, but that doesn't stop me coming up with millions of excuses for not eating healthily or not going for a run or a swin or getting out on the bike.

I'm 31lbs it not a lot at all and I get so so angry :mad: with myself for failing at even this simple task!

Anyway it's nice to know there are poeple out there who feel the same as me even if none of you actuall yneed to lose weight. :)
 
Hey, I feel kinda the same.

I am not overweight, but I am unfit and lazy. I used to eat too much junk food, and I now have to have 9 fillings because I never ate dairy and ate too much sugar. I struggled with an eating disorder for 4 years in high school, and as a result my metabolism is screwed.

I have 4.3 more kilograms to lose. But mainly I want to get fit and toned, so I can start competing in running events and not get puffed upstairs.

I lost 1.5kg last week (3.3lbs)! I only believe in weighing in every 1 or 2 weeks, weighing every day is not a good indication of fat loss. Im trying to exercise every day for 60 minutes! And im gonna work my butt off to get to 54kg!

I hate it when people are like "hey you dont need to lose weight, your not fat", it doesnt mean I dont want to look good! I have a good 8kg I could do without! I want to look good in a bikini on the beach, whats wrong with that? Im only 18 years old, I want to be slim!

Looking forward to everyones progress. It can be harder to lose when you dont have much to lose.
 
I with you all. I weigh around 145lbs and I'm almost 5'8. I am in no way toned. I know I could easly be 15lbs lighter as well. I'd really like to be able to see my muscle under the surface layer of fat.
 
Hi everyone

Hi, I am not fitting in the overweight group either. My BMI is 24 after a long battle but I am still not happy enough. I just don't want to see that soft fat to keep jiggling on my tummy and everywhere, so I have decided it's now or never. I have about 5 more kg to loose.
