in Success Stories
Hey guys,
I'm Trisha I am 21 and I weigh less now than I did in 7th grade at 5'2. I have been overweight since I was in 3rd grade and have just now learned how to take care of my body and lose weight. I have finally realized today it is not about where I am at it is about how I feel, and today I feel great. So here goes anything my first success post. Anyone looking for advice look into you RMR it is where you want to start, it took me a long time to realize that 1200 Calories a day was not enough for me at 300+ lbs I was starving myself and not losing weight. A special thanks to Jacquedr for all of your help getting me starred and keeping me going.

Feel free to add me I love new friends especially those who post their thoughts!! Now what you all wanted!

    Congrats on your great results.

    I attempted to fix the pics but I think it is the sizing on photobucket causing the issue. Check the stickie at the top of this message board on posting pics it tells you how to resize pics there.

    a) Good f'ing job.
    b) You can resize them in photobucket. If you click on the "Edit" button at the top of the page, a menu bar comes up after you select a photo, with a resize option.

    way to go!!! Keep pushing through! You're doing great and I have no doubt you will continue to do so!!! You look fantastic. I'm also 5'2", and my starting weight was 236. :) My GW is 136, but I'm going to be on such a cloud when I get into the 160s!!!

    Congrats on your amazing progress!!! :-)

    I also started at 300+ and did not understand FOR YEARS why I wasn't losing much/any weight eating under 1,500 calories every day (and walking several miles each night). So I totally "get it" too!!! I thought I had some weird metabolic disorder.

    Cheers!!
