Okay before anyone starts judging please hear me out. I'm 5'3", 21 years old, and I was ALWAYS super lazy. When i was younger I took dance lesson till about 16, then it became wayy to expensive. So from then on all I ever did was go out with friends EAT, stay home and EAT, and NEVER exercise. I figured heyy I never gain weight so why not eat whatever. So this consisted of chips, cookies, rice, meats, no veggies EVER. So factor all this in with no exercise till about January 2011. That's a good 5 years of unhealthy eating habits and ABSOLUTELY no exercise. And guaranteed I gained a good 20 lbs.

Looking a recent pictures of myself I got really unhappy, depressed..yaddy yahh...So I decided to change my life style. Changed my eating habits and also exercising almost everyday of the week. Here's my EXTRA EXTRA mini success photos. Explain the differences after you see the pics.

So the first picture I'm trying SOOO hard to suck in and my face is super round. Second picture I am also sucking in like crazy and that belt is DEFINITELY helping to hold in my gut, face a little smaller, and the last picture is from this past Saturday [march 26] after about a good 2 weeks of changing my lifestyle- I'm NOT sucking in! woohoo!! and my face and double chin is still getting smaller.

    Keep up the good work! You're smart to get a handle on this while still young, instead of waiting 20 years and 40 lbs. . . . .

    That's what I did. I, too, could eat anything, and not gain weight. But it all changed after I turned 30, and after 40 it got worse. I'm just thankful that I found this site, which works. Now I think of all those years I wasted being fat!

    You look beautiful! Congrats.
