Hey guys! New here.. I've been struggling with my weight since my elementary school days. I've tried more times than I count to "get down" to a healthy weight. Usually I go for two weeks and then stop. I don't even know why.. But this time has to be different. I'm 18 and too young to be this overweight. I've still got a lot of muscle from when I swam Freshman year of high school. But I weight 205-ish lbs. It's really frustrating though. I've worked out almost every day (minus a few days off) for the past two weeks. My mom says she notices a difference, and I feel better (that's just exercize for you) but I can't tell.. and the scale is going up. I have to do it this time. I can't fail. What keeps you guys going? When you don't want to go.. what gives you that extra push?

and this is me Freshman year. It's hard to believe that I gained 40lbs in four years.. I'm sick of this. I'm doing well, going everday. But I need a way to make sure I stick with it.

the fact that you will have achieved it and will feel as good as you did then and the feeling that you have now will have gone
you will feel more attractive, more confident, healthier, less lethargic and satisfied with what you have done :]
if you ever need any help with motivation or loss etc then just ask.. im usually around my weight loss diary
i used to be a swimer too
and if this makes you feel better i am 16 so even younger than you to be over weight
good luck and hope you get that extra motivation

Thanks guys I'm so excited already. My clothes are baggier, but not baggy enough to go out and buy new clothes which sorta sucks. But I'll give it a few weeks. Thank you guys so much
