My first year of …
My first year of college I reached 216 pounds being 17 yr old and 5′6″. Having a few medical conditions in my back makes it a bit hard sometimes (specially back then) to do some exercises. I lost 40 pounds aprox…. I reached 174 pounds last year. After that I lost the motivation I had back then and I gained 16 pounds back 
I’m currently getting back on track because I swore to myself I’d never be that one again.

I remember in 7th …
I remember in 7th grade I was reading the nutrition facts on a box of Honey Nut Cheerios and I remember saying to my mom, “There’s only 110 calories in this entire box! I can eat the whole thing and won’t get fat!” Little did I know how WRONG I WAS……….my mom informed me that I was reading the nutrition fact panel wrong and from then on I began to use portion control and discovered dieting.

As a little girl …
As a little girl growing up I was really chubby. I weighed about 30 lbs. at the age of 2. I loved to eat back then & I once ate about 5 bags of chips & got really sick. B/c of that I lost a lot of weight. From then on I worried about what I ate & always tried to eat a lot of veggies. In 5th grade, I weighed 60 lbs. & my teacher told me I was underweight. I was confused because I thought I was pretty healthy. She explained to me that eating too much is bad as well as eating too little. Now I diet

The first time I …
The first time I became keenly aware of my weight I was in 7th grade. I was 5′8 and 120 pounds. A friends brother who was an adult in his 30’s told me I was “getting hippy.” I look back on that now and realize I was most likely starting puberty and becoming curvy. From that one comment I had a distorted view of my body.

I was unconcerned with my weight till high school and I even ate extra portions because I felt that having a bigger body figure would make me look more mature! I was quite small and i was mistaken to be almost 4 yrs younger than I actually was. One day my family exclaimed that I had thunder thighs!(fat thighs). I started feeling insecure and unhappy and wondered if others thought that way too. I reduced my calorie intake and started exercising. I hope I can be thin and feel confident again (:

I never really …
I never really cared about my weight until I switched over to a new dance studio. The teacher at my dance studio would always critisize me about my weight and at times even told me to skip meals to achieve the ideal body of a ballerina. Of course I never bothered doing so, but her words stuck onto me and often led to having me think twice before I ate something. I quit about a year later, but was never able to eat the same ever again.

I didn’t realize that I had a weight problem until I told my husband what I weighed and he looked at me in awe. He told me that he was only 20 lbs heavier than me and he was 218. I almost cried! My ideal body weight according to the BMI is 150 ( I think) because I’m 5′ 8”. Ever since he made this comment to me, I’ve been unhappy and I have been working on losing weight. I’m really glad I found your videos because they’ve been helping a lot

On the nutrition …
On the nutrition fact panel. It will say like for example 100 calories..but that means 100 calories in a serving size. So if it was a box of Cheerios then you’d be getting 100 calories in 3/4 cup of them not the entire box.

In grade school, I started figure skating and I was always one of the bigger girls on the ice. I was not HUGE or unhealthy when I look at the pictures, but, I felt very big. My mom also would not allow me to buy certain dresses (skating) or regular clothes because of my size. I am currently 29 and working on getting healthy. At my heaviest, I was 196, I am currently 175 and am looking to get down to 145-150, but that is going to depend on some health issues that make it difficult to lose weight.

In the seventh grade I realized that at 150+ pounds I was overweight for my height. I was never involved in sports up til then. I joined athletics and ever since then I have tried to lead an active life. I graduated from high school this year and am proud to say that I am at a smaller, healthier size than I was in the seventh grade.

I was a skinny baby. Eating was the last thing on my list. But then we moved from WA to MS when I was in elementary and I found out I loved Southern cooking! In 3rd grade, we had a PE class and when I got on the scale I was shocked. I was at 99lbs! It snuck up on me. Ever since it’s been a constant battle with joy when I lost weight and sadness when I gained (including lots of cookie dough). It will always be a worry in my mind. I’m afraid of what the future would hold if I didn’t watch it.

When I was in 3rd grade I was always being made fun of cause of my weight and In gym class I couldnt keep up with the other kids, no one wanted me on their team. I remember my mom calling me fat when i was that young i think that was the worst

When I was in the 5th grade I started to wear jeans. Now I have always been a heavy child but wearing sweats and such kinda masked it, but the jeans did no justice.
When I started to wear jeans I found the bullying part of my life began, but now I am in highschool and I still wear jeans but I have a higher self confidence even though according the media I am 20lbs over weight.

I first became …
I first became conscious about my weight back when I was dancing ballet, at about 12. My dance teacher would remind our class that the “ideal body” was lean, and thin so that we could best see our shape and movements. She said that if we were heavy our movements would look sloppy. I began watching what I ate and have been extremely critical of myself ever since then.

I was always the …
I was always the chubby child - shy, teased often. Food was a celebration. It was a comfort that replaced a warm blanket or hug. It was the friend who was always there. I was conditioned to become an emotional & binge eater. Diets,would inevitability end in a slip, which would turn into a large downhill spiral fueled by regret and guilt.
After years of unhealthy yo-yo- dietting, I eventually ballooned up to 440 pounds. At 5′ 10″ every daily task became a marathon.

i first looked to me and my weight when i was around 10 years old and i was starting to get into puberty and i watch myself getting from a very thin child into a veeeeery curvy and fat almost-woman that couldnt stop eating what she shouldnt. since then i pay attention to what i eat and found my passion in dance what makes me in shape

last year when i was in 10th grade i was at 5 foot 1 and i weighed 140 pounds bcuz i wanted to compete in the weight competion at school. And i ended up not doing the weight competion and i was really pissed bcuz i gained all that weight. So i’ve had the worst time trying to maintain a healthy diet and i went into martial arts which helped alot and now im back to my original weight 105 and now im 5 foot 2. But also i had a tough time with money being an issue bcuz i only have my mom.
