I'm 19.I've always struggled with my weight, and I decided back in January to lose the weight for good.At first it worked, but then I started eating bad and gaining weight again.Now I'm more determined to lose weight and I plan on joining Weight Watchers.

Does anyone else have trouble with motivation? Some days i'm so excited to work out but then i'll drink a sweet tea which makes me feel as if i ruined my whole day so i continue to eat junk for the rest of the day. I'm such a sucker for sweets and simple carbs they are my downfall .

Hey fellow teens.

Are you all still out there? I hope you are!

My name is Katie and I'm 18 years old. I've struggled with my weight all my life and have tried to lose it again and again, but this time is going to be different. If anyone out there is doing South Beach-- I'm looking for a buddy!

Hi!My name's Cailyn and I'm 19.I've been struggling with my weight since I was 12.I decided to make a permanent change this winter when I reached the highest weight I've ever been and was disgusted with myself.Plus, I also learned my brother was getting married next year and that I'd be in the wedding.So now I'm doing Weight Watchers online and I'm working out 3-6 days a week.I'm determined to lose the weight once and for all and I'm going to keep trying and not give up.

Hi everyone. Just wanted to drop in and offer some support. When I was 15 I was 15 stone and a size 18-20. I lost it all over a year between the ages of 16 and 17 through cycling, running and walking and giving up chocolate and switching snacks between meals to nuts and fruits rather than crisps and cakes.

I got down to a size 10 and stayed that way at a healthy weight until I had my twins so it is very possible you just need to believe in yourself, really want it and keep at it!

Try to keep it healthy though as it is easy to become obsessed and go to the other end of the scale and nobody wants an unhealthy relationship with food and exercise be it eating too much or not eating at all, and exercising can become obsessive or compulsive, too which is just as unhealthy as if you don't exercise at all. You don't need to loose it all at once. Slow and steady wins the race. Just try to eat healthily and get SOME exercise and the weight WILL come off, I promise.

Best of luck to all of you trying to lose weight,
CurleyWurly

Glad to see that I was able to breathe some life into this thread-- it needed it!

OompaLoompa -- Wow, you're doing great so far! It's great that you have a motivator such as your brother's wedding to work towards.

and thanks for the advice, CurlyWurly!

I'm 18 this year and I've been overweight my whole life, no kidding. I even weighed pretty heavy when I was born. I remember comparing birth weights with fellow classmates one day in primary school when we all had our health booklets with us for a checkup and to my horror found out that I weighed heavier than many of the boys. =(

My biggest (or probably the only) problem is with food. I love exercising, doing sports and being active in general, but I can't seem to control myself in front of food. I can't do the "eat in moderation" thing. It's either I wolf down whatever that's in front of me or I don't eat anything at all.

But I'm not giving up! Being overweight has taken so much of my teenage life away. Everytime someone says "Let's go swimming." I cringe inside and instantly think of how horrendous it'll be if everyone saw me in a swimsuit. Or how depressing it is when I see an outfit that looks so pretty but the moment I try it on, even if I can fit into it, the outfit just looks terrible on me.

And we all probably would have had such thoughts going through us at some point in time, whether or not we're overweight, right? Like when you see an obese person munching on a burger or a huge pack of fries, you think to yourself how fat that person is already and he/she is still gorging on food etc.

That's why all of us here have got to succeed! =)
