I normally try to eat breakfast everyday unless I'm in a rush. Just small meals. Like one egg and a fruit, or one bowl of oatmeal with fruit, etc. I've noticed that when I skip breakfast, I eat larger quantities at one sitting later in the day... which I know is bad for my metabolism and ultimately my weight loss.

I'm pretty short, 5'3", and it took 15lbs before any of my friends said anything. When your friends see you often, sometimes it's hard to notice! It's the people who only see you once in a while that can see the change right away.

Yup! I'm 5'3.5" and weigh ~139 right now. Looking to lose maybe just another ten-twenty pounds. My body type is similar to yours I think (based on your profile picture). I'll add you. :)

I'm 5'3.5" and I would like to get down to 120lbs eventually, but my first goal is 130. I'm 140 right now. I do have quite a bit of muscle from playing soccer for years as a child, so I might be satisfied at 130, but we'll see when I get there. :)

I'm 5'3.5". I started out at 161lbs. I don't have any before pictures. But, now I weigh 140... Looking to lose 10-20 more pounds. :)

I'm still on my way, but I've lost almost 20lbs and these are the best comparison photos I could find (not that great but oh well haha)! I'm 5'3.5". Before at ~161lbs Now at ~143lbs

I'm definitely in on this! Height 5'3.5" SW: 161 CW: 143.8 GW: 120 Weigh in dates: 5/4: 143.8 5/11: 5/18: 5/25: 5/31: Total lost:

Hate breeds hate. I don't see the point of this thread. I'm not overly-sensitive, I just believe that everything should be looked at from all perspectives without coming to harsh conclusions. Everyone has made excuses. Just encourage them, and hopefully they'll grow out of it. The hate won't stop a thing.

Ah yes I would love to run outside, once the weather is nice enough! I tried running outside in the winter -- cannot handle cold sweats.

Thanks so much for the replies! I'll definitely slow my pace to probably 4.5mph, given that I do have short legs haha. I'll also look into doing some intervals, and focus more on breathing. I'm aiming to be able to run 30 minutes straight by the summertime, and then once I achieve that, I'll start training for a…

Beautiful :) keep up the great work

Thanks everyone!

This is false...

If you continue at the rate you're going, you'll definitely reach 120 pounds by July! I don't think you will see much of a difference by March 30th (perhaps a few inches?). But, don't let that discourage you! And make sure you're getting enough nutrients as only consuming 1,200 daily + vigorous exercise daily can…

Well, you're definitely not alone! I know how you feel. Lately my diet has been poorer than usual. I've been trying to become a more active user on myfitnesspal... I think relating to others, and truthfully tracking all food helps a bunch! Bad days, or weeks, happen, don't let it ruin your motivation, in fact try to let it…
