Hey Miguel, sorry to hear about your discs. When I was 17 I had surgery for a herniated disc C4-5 and I had similar pains. The pain would shoot from my back all the way down into my leg and I couldn't sleep for a LONG time. I actually had to have part of the disc removed because it was digging into a nerve. The surgery…

Today was my second day at the gym and I worked out for 20 minutes longer than I did yesterday (though next time I do that I have to remember to eat more because I almost fainted) but I burned 168 calories on the bike which is a good start for me because I have back problems and all my muscles atrophied from doing nothing…

Hello, I've got some advice for you. Don't let that gym membership go to waste. Working out is not only how you get thinner, but its healthy for you, it does wonders for your physical and mental health as well. The more you work out the less crap you will want to eat because you will have in your head that you just busted…

how did you lose almost 50 lbs so fast?!

Thanks so much everyone. I'm hoping to take a step in the gym for the first time in months today. I'm hoping it will help with my depression and anxiety and help me feel better about my living situation.

yeah if only I weren't so sensitive.

Okay thanks & will do!!

Aw thanks that means a lot. :) I want to believe in myself again too. I'm trying.

thanks Trudi :) I honestly need all the support I can get. I lost all my friends pretty much so this site is like my only hope.

thanks so much @ peanut butter :) and i definitely will, i'm determined to get there tomorrow (today) lol

@julia, I don't mean this question to be offensive to anyone, it's just that I haven't learned the way but, how do I love myself when I'm this big? when the media tells me if I'm not thin, I'm not pretty, if I'm not thin, I'm not worth anything, and when everyone around me is thin and when I can't do something a thin…

@supah_ I know what type 1 diabetes is about, I dated someone with it for quite some time and I saved his life several times. After all I did for him though, and his family, when my depression hit and I started gaining back the 50 lbs I had lost, his parents told him to quit it with me or else they were kicking him out…

That's so inspirational. Thanks a bunch for sharing that. I joined this because I don't have any friends anymore because of all I've been through, my friends just moved on with their lives and I guess I can't blame them because they all had/have their own problems but I know I'm gonna need friendly support if I'm going to…

Thank you so much and I will definitely add you! =]

more power to you i read about her program and cringed in fear haha

Hi Diana. I may look heavy but I lost over 50 lbs in a little less than 4-5 months once. I gained it all back because I stopped working out but thats besides the point. Do 30 minutes of cardio, and 15 minutes of weights/aerobics/pushups/crunches. Eat breakfast, lunch and dinner all proportional, and then have a snack in…

aw thanks boomerz :) that means a lot to hear <3

wow so inspiring! i hope to lose that much! or even close to that much! even half!
