Next week will be my senior year of high school, I can't believe it! I'm only 16, I feel like a baby :( but, anyway; I did not attend my Junior prom last school year because I felt fat, & ugly! I felt like I wouldn't look pretty any a prom dress, & I just COULDN'T try on a pretty dress & have the zipper not zip all the way up, or ripping a dress. This year I will be going (: & I will fit in a pretty dress JUST fine! You know why? Because I will eat healthy, smaller portions, say no to certain foods! & exercise! Prom is usually at the end of april-may! I hope to lose 30 pounds by then. I'm 170 (well I've lost one pound and now i'm 169!) I think I can do it :happy:


&, I'll post my prom pictures to share my success! WOOT WOOT!

    YOu certainly can do it!... TiP: look for a picture of that beautiful dress you just love. (be realistic about it) and take it with you everywhere and when ever you feel like a splurge coming on. Look at that dress and remember that you love yourself and you must accomplish your goal to fit into that dress. :)

    Good Luck :flowerforyou:
