I am 5'8 and 187. I used to be around 225 or so last summer. In high school I was 150, but I still looked very heavy. I think I'm going to try to get around 130-140 this time and see if that suits me better. I am currently a size 16. When I was 150 I was around a 14. I clearly hold most of my weight in my bottom half, haha.

I'm not really sure. I've been overweight since third grade, but I guess it was a combination of growing up in a household of sweet-loving people, my parent's divorce (I lived with my dad, he wasn't the best cook, we'd eat a lot of unhealthy things and I'd eat my feelings at being away from my mother), and genetics. Also,…

I was diagnosed with depression in high school and quit taking anti-depressants toward the end of my senior year (honestly, they just were not for me). It's been three years and I think I'm considerably different and happier now, but I still have my down periods. I am an emotional eater and that's been my main problem with…

I've been thirty pounds more than my current weight and forty pounds less, but my pants size has never changed. I've been a size 14 since sixth grade. I'm hoping that this time, my body composition has magically changed and that my legs will lose weight a bit faster this time, but eh... I'm fairly certain it's genetic. My…

Those faces!

We rehabilitated this little cutie a few years ago and released her into the wild, but she comes back all the freaking time, so I guess she's like a pet. Here's how she plays, so... yeah: Then here's my bunny: I think she's a Netherland Dwarf Do not combine bunny with raccoon...

I really like grapefruits. My boyfriend doesn't understand. Not too exotic, but eh.

The pill has really helped my mood swings. Also, remember the worse you eat while PMSing, the worse you're going to feel and act. I thought this was just a ploy to get me to eat better, but then I realized there really is a correlation between how much chocolate I was stuffing in my face when I was PMSing and how angry I…

I can absolutely relate to this. When I was in high school, I lost 60 pounds (I have been overweight since third grade), but the person I saw in the mirror never changed. I thought that I must have lost weight in really odd places (chest, neck, face) because I couldn't see it at all. I was receiving all of these…

I don't think the time you eat really matters, as long as you're meeting your calorie goal and exercising :) I know some people don't feel well or can't sleep if they eat close to bedtime, and I suppose it might skew your weight in the early morning if you don't have time to pass it out of your system or something, but…

My family had a really old scale that underestimated my weight by 20 lbs. Ouch. Getting weighed by the doctor for the first time in years was an eye-opener. Also, realizing I was only 15 lbs less than my dad (a pretty large man) was shocking.

I did Insanity quite a while ago and I didn't lose any weight during the first half or so (it began to pick up toward the end), but I definitely noticed a change in my legs and butt immediately. They just looked tighter. I wish I had taken measurements before beginning, but I'm pretty sure I lost some thigh inches. I think…

I think I've gained two or three... Pizza explosion + new birth control + no cardio = sad time.

I don't even weigh myself during my periods. They're just too whack. I think I gained like 6 whole pounds last time and then peed for three days straight.

Honestly the only reason I cut back was for my teeth, haha. I am in the process of whitening them and it seems kind of counter-productive to drink a lot of brown things (I'm still working on coffee...).

Mine seem to be from sugar, caffeine, and seafood (even just the smell gives me migraines). I have a lot of smell-based triggers, I think.
