Cutting Back
2 months ago
I skipped lunch today because I wasn’t hungry. Normally I would have eaten anyway, but I didn’t. I have lost three of my 13 pounds! Yay.
How to lose 13 pounds
It made me
Happy and Confident 
"It was empowering to feel that I am able to do something this challenging, it makes me look forward to accomplishing more things. "
How I did it: Firstly, I stopped at 114, because i realized i do not look so good when I am skinnier, I went down to 111.8 and I started looking less healthy.
mostly changing my mind set, somehow i was at a point where I felt like food will fix things, so I pigged out whenever I got stressed out which messed things up for me even more.
I shifted what I ate to more little-caloric content stuff and decreased my snacking frequency.
Understanding the equation that it is about keeping the cut back for long enough for pounds to shed also helped me immensely.
I exercised regularly
Lessons & tips: Do not procrastinate, just do it already, you will feel great when you have!

4 strategies helped me this week:
1. it’s only temoprary

i wanna fast forward and reach my target weight, so i am gonna go harder on myself to finish…
i want to weigh 112 pounds by the end of next week max.
will reward myself with a mcdonald’s meal for lucnch surely :)
the other day
11 months ago
so the other day was my lowest weight of 116.4 :), for some crazy reason i weighed 118.2 again this morning though…it put me in a bad mood, i have to keep goin though..i had 2 large cookies for lunch today :(, i will consider it my cheating meal for the week and just go on like it didn’t happen….
it puts me in a terrible mood when i gain weight, i have to ignore it pretty much…
i realized i can make things easiar for myself by increasin my activity level which also makes me feel better generally, i baught a skipping rope so i’d use it when i can’t make it to the gym, it makes me feel great, i will not weigh myself again today cause it will make me feel bad to see the effects of these damn cookies :S, will do tomorrow morning when i wake up…lets see the end point of this week, i am excited bout it..hope it’s less than last week, even if by just alittle…2 more days (by sunday)

I went to the doctor the other day. I weighed 133 lbs.! I was soooo upset. I kind of thought it was normal, until my doctor told me my “ideal body weight” is 120-125 lbs. I am 5’ 2” and I’m 16 years old. I really want to lose this weight. Someone PLEASE help me!
thanksgiving break
12 months ago
thanksgiving break is over, i kinda slacked, didn’t pig out though :)
during the week it’s so easy to keep track of what i eat:
will have breakfast at home
lunch at school
an apple for dinner
i am doing well on that scheduel today, all that’s left is dinner.
my apetite is not all that big anyway which is helping :)
plenty of sugar free gum and water if i got too hungry.
