I used to weigh 170lbs and I was so confident and felt comfortable in my own skin I then gained 20lbs and shortly after I had to get surgery for a ruptured appendix they had to cut from my belly button down its a hand length scar I was in the hospital for 8 days and I gained weight and lost muscle I then weighted 205lbs and I felt so fat and uncomfortable in my own skin I was only 19 after that I got onto the birth-control shot and gained 25lbs I worked out every once in a while but gave up because I wasn't loosing fast enough DUMB IDEA!! I now weight 265.4lbs and I am only 22 years old and TTC my first child. I have been working out with a friend but not really losing anything.. I need help, ideas, etc on how to lose this weight. my first goal weight is to be 235lbs then I will go from there I want to get down to at least 190lbs I want to weight 170 again but honestly I would be happy at 200lbs I just cannot be the me I am now. I need a change, I need to be me again not this person who is always in sweats until she leaves the house who feels fat and uncomfortable. I am not the me I used to be and I am still so young.. PLEASE HELP!

Do you have a game plan? Eating\diet? , counting calories/ bmr?, what and when to exercise?
Suggestion right away if you drink pop stop. I lost 5 pounds just from quiting drinking it here and there. Water is your friend! Take your weight divide it by 2 that's how many oz of water to drink to loose weight!

Good luck! If you join myfitnesspal add me I'm stefaniee83 on there.
I don't really have a game plan =/ I have been working out at night with a friend, We do Jillian Michaels some nights, Zumba some nights, and a 30 minute pilates DVD some nights. It just depends. I don't count calories and I am unsure of what BMR is? I drink soda probably 2 times a week if that but I know I need to stop for good. Thank you!

You can do it girl! We can be buddies. I'm 22, TTC my first child for 5 yrs and weigh 251 lbs. I looked good when I was 190 but I want to get down to 150. I've lost 6 lbs since January (would have been more but I've been sick for almost 2 weeks now). Do you have myfitnesspal ? What kind of things are you doing to lose weight?
I keep forgetting that netflix has work outs on it. I do have netflix I will have to remember to look them up. I do the good work outs it just doesn't seem like they work that great. I'll lose a few pounds but then I gain it back. I need to eat healthyer

I like Jillian michaels DVDs so I usually do one of hers 2-4 times per week. I also like billy blanks. Another favorite of mine is Kickbox bootcamp on Netflix it sounds like the workouts you're doing are good! :)
