Im 19 years old, 5 foot even and i weigh 166 pounds...
i have been trying to diet ever since i was way younger.. my goal weight is 130 and i want to weigh that much for my 21st birthday so i have a year and 5 months to do so, i would always start a diet doing good and a month after doing so i would just stop and eat whatever i wanted, this time its going to be different.. ( i say that everytime ) but i really wanna do it this time, i just need some support though.. i dont have much over support over here, i dont have much money to join a fancy group.. i walk around where i live i try working out at home. i usto have a gym membership but that ended already it got way to expensive.. ive failed at alot of things in my life and i dont want to be depressed or.. be a failure my whole life and this is just one of the things that ive failed at for a couple years.. i want to be more... intiment with my DH and feel that self confidence that i see everyone else have...

hey girl! i'm 19 too and i have been trying to lose weight FOREVER. I'm 5'7 and 173. it sounds like a lot, and it is, but i can still dress myself to where i can look great when i go out and stuff. its more like, i NEVER wear tank tops... strapless stuff... things like that. this is like the tenth summer that i am telling myself im gonna be thin before i go back to school. now, back to sophomore year of college! today i was so proud and ate eggwhites and broccoli for breakfast.... and then a half hour ago i ran to the corner store about bought 2 ice cream bars and chips. it's pathetic. i'd love to do this with you!

That would be awesome i can use all the support i can get and i can help you too!! i ate eggwhites this morning to but felt so hungry after i went for a 35 minute walk so i ate a tuna sandwich.. do you got any messengers by chance?

yeah whats your AIM? haha i haven't used AIM in foreverrrrr

Hello Ladies! welcome to 3fc!! i'm 23 and have been trying to lose weight forever as well, you're going to love the support and good ideas you find here! nmgirl, i'm a calorie counter as i cannot afford a program either, works well, it's free and it doesn't limit you to no carbs etc. however, you will want to stock up on fruits and veggies! they are low cal and fill you up, that said you can still indulge the odd time! just watch what you eat, read food labels and believe your worth it (i think you are!)

and thank you aubrey, ive found some info that was helpful here already and being on here made me actually WANT to do this and be real about it. i dont eat veggies to much but i love fruit lol im tryin to not be so picky but i grew up on ... mexican food so im a very picky eater ( not to many veggies in that lol )

i understand! i am pretty picky too but i just started incorporating more veggies... for example i LOVE peppers, mushrooms, onions and tomatoes in anything with a mexian flavor. Its a starts! and it displaces some of the cheese/meat.
good luck to you!!

i added u on yahoo!
