You can do it! I wish that I had the sense at 17 to lose the weight I was rapidly gaining, I have been fat my entire life, I'm 221 right now well in the obesity range for my 5'2" frame. Your best bet is to have support from others around you, your friends and family, it's hard to make major changes in your life without…

I agree with them above see and talk to a doctor about not only the pain you're feeling but also get his or her advice on weight loss and where you are at when it comes to ability to exercise. A little can go a long way EVERYONE starts small so listen to your body it will tell you what you can do and what you can't. It…

Thanks! I appreciate it yeah I also have a supportive boyfriend he tells me that he would love me just the same if I was the same, gained or lost, (although he admitted he'd worry for my health if I gained any significant amount) so it really helps and I know I'm doing this for me and not to please anyone else. But I'm…

Most of my weights in my stomach as well and its very irritating to have somewhat toned legs and calves with a big gut over them, I'd much rather be even. I have a larger bosom as well which makes breathing hard for me, what I do is walk at a brisk pace 1-2 miles a day around a track outside of the gym then I go in and do…

Go you!!!!! That is so awesome I'm so excited for you! :) I also have pcos diagnosed in 2006 when I was 16 years old.

I am also…

I struggle because I love to eat and it's hard to be motivated if you're around unmotivated people. Some people are so disciplined it doesn't matter what their partner or their roommate or family does they work hard and eat right and just succeed in all aspects, but not everyone is like that and sadly I fall in the not…

I know how you feel, I went to my doctor a few weeks ago and she told me that I am in the morbid obesity range for my height (5'2") my jaw must have dropped to the floor I never considered myself morbidly obese even tho I knew I was at least 40-50 lbs overweight. Talk about wake up call. My brother was just diagnosed with…

What kind of exercise do you do? I feel your pain I've been going at it for 3 months and haven't seen much results either :\ my workout partner tells me to be patient but it's hard when you're really pouring your heart and soul into it.

I love juicing although I have never done a reboot, I feel that it gives me energy and nutrients I'm not eating love fat sick and nearly dead and hungry for a change they motivate me to stay on track
-
I just want to say I know exactly how you feel, I have asked a lot of the same questions, like, why is it easier for some people, some people are naturally thin and don't have to try (like my bf) how is it fair that along with battling depression I have to battle with my weight too? Some days it feels like I haven't enough…
