    High School is completely meaningless. Skip a few more classes and relax.

    Don't settle down so young - give yourself a chance to find out who you are as a person.

    You will grow into a strong woman. Do the things that challenge you and be happy and not so hard on yourself.

    You don't have kids yet, take some time for yourself! Travel more, finish school and take care of yourself NOW because later, when you have your beloved and your kids and a mortgage, all of the above isn't impossible, but it sure ain't easy.

    Eating for comfort will not give you comfort no matter how much you try it!! Deal with the issue & then you will not have to deal with the weight issue in the future.......

    Quit hating yourself. Nothing will come of it but misery. Recognize what an amazing person you are.

    Quit binge drinking. Nothing good will come of that either.

    I would tell my younger self:

    1) don't get married and settle down so young

    2) don't start smoking

    3) it does matter what you eat

    4) Play and stay active

    Most importantly of all, I would tell that self to hold her head up high and take pride in who she is. Don't listen to other people's opinion of who she should be.

    Don't hide that, there. Your mom will find it. That will be a bad day.

    Inquiring minds want to know!!

    That their's 650 calories in a small Georgia Mud Fudge Blizzard... You don't need one 5 times a week... :/

    Wearing pants that are too small is not cute.... It really just makes you have a gigantic *kitten* ugly muffin top.

    Oh the things I refused to see back then.

    Don't settle. Dream bigger, try harder, fail more, and learn from it.

    Do NOT take advice. Other people have no idea what your life is about, so build it yourself :)

    What did you eat as a vegetarian? I've been one for 13 years and my body is in great shape. These absolutes are dangerous and instigate other people to believe the problem is *being* a vegetarian, rather than *knowing your diet* while being a vegetarian. Many people destroyed their bodies without being a vegetarian, it's all about choices.
