    I was a 165 lb. girl last year. I just turned 18 and I wanted to lose weight so that I could look good for all the guys I started noticing that weren't noticing me because I was fat (I'm 5' 6"). I started walking, swimming, and the like and saw NO change within the first 4 months, then finally I began losing one pound a week. I got down to 140, hit a plateau, and began seriously restrictive calorie counting for two weeks because I wanted to hit 130. I hit 135 a month later, then quit the dieting because I was feeling weak, shaky, and downright horrible because I wasn't getting enough calories.

    After that, my weight jumped up to 145, and after reassessing my calorie counting, I joined My Fitness Pal, figured out my caloric need, and started again. I'm happy to say that after 2 months, I've lost 8 lbs. and am back on my way to being a skinny 130!

    Every day (except for Sunday) I walk 4 mph. I also do an incredibly helpful Youtube workout Pilates video (am I allowed to drop names on here?) that has given me INCREDIBLE stomache, back, arm, and leg tone. I've also started strength training, push-ups, and lifting weights in addition to cardio and have gained muscle weight since I started!!

    I've only got 2 months to go before I reassess my weight, so support and motivation would be appreciated!!!
