lose 120 pounds

I am fed up with how I look and how I feel. My stomach is hanging out of my body and I look downright dumpy!

I’m tired of wearing the same old clothes because I can’t buy clothes in stores. Specialty stores cost a lot and the designs are sometimes hideous.

I hate avoiding the word fat. I hate feeling defensive when this word is said because I know I am.

I am angry at myself for letting me go this way! I’m angry that I let myself get affected by negative feelings from the people around me. I hate the pitying look older people give me – the mean remarks children say when they see “that fat lady.”

I want to lose 120 pounds by March 2011 in time for my daughter’s graduation. This is the best gift I can give to my daughter and myself. Good health!

I will reclaim my life and I will enjoy it to the fullest this time!

sometimes my mom nages at me about my weight and size and it is making me depressed so i need this really bad

i want to lose the weight so that i can feel good about myself. im tired of going places with my thin friends and not having the confidence they have or the ability to wear the things i wanna wear. also, i need to lose the weight for health reasons. i would like to be able to go and by clothes that dont have a tag that reads XL on it… i would love to buy something that doesnt involve me shopping for maternity clothes and im not pregnant.

I have been overweight for a very long time…i want to lose all of this so i can feel better about myself! I cant do the things i wanna do. I weigh 241 pounds and i dont like it….i need help so bad!

Probably sounds strange, and hypocritical, coming from someone who wrote a book lambasting the diet industry—and you’re right, really. I reserve the right to change my mind. Life in a 280 pound body is painful and uncomfortable, and in my current state of health I’m unable to do the things I want to do. There’s a lot more behind my fat than just fat; there are years of emotional issues I’m slowly working my way through. Just losing weight won’t accomplish that and it won’t give me a perfect life, but it’ll help me dance more gracefully through the one I’ve got.

I started on my new low carb way of life on Jan 21st 2009. My starting weight that day was 302.5 lbs after 13wks I am down to 266lbs! Thats an incredible 36lbs!!! My goal weight is anywhere between 180-190lbs. My advice to anyone is to investigate low carb eating and really making it your way of life. I only did it because of other health issues that put it in my face and said you do this or you are going to be diabetic! So I did for that reason but now with such great weight loss results I know this is the best diet I have ever tried. By the way I haven’t added any exercise into my life yet. I will eventually, but right now I want to make sure I have my way of eating down pat and second nature.

DEAR SIR OR MADAM:
