disputedtruth added an entry about lose weight : I already feel discouraged. I want to be able to say that I’ll lose 50 pounds by summer, which is not going to happen. When I come to the realization that I can’t lose the weight as quick as I want, I wanna give up. I feel hopeless and ask “what’s the point?”.

AaminahRaks added an entry about lose weight : I’ve changed my workout regimine (sp?) so that I go to the gym 4-5 days a week instead of 3. And it is surprisingly easier! And I can definitely tell a difference. I’ve been getting compliments and people have been telling me that they’ve noticed how much weight I’ve lost. But the icing on the cake was that tonight at dance class I caught a glimpse of myself in the mirror while we were dancing and my legs looked fabulous! lol. Im feeling very optimistic.

Megan added an entry about lose weight : So I went to the gym last night, had my initial free session and got suckered in to signing up for personal training classes, but I think I need it for the motivation and to make sure I am doing what I need to do…because she pushed me wayyy harder than I would ever push myself and that is GOOD !
