Do something, you have no reason not to.

Update:

Hello Sparkers, it's been quite the journey this year. Gained almost all of my lost weight back. I don't know what to say about it besides DAMN! But hey it happens, so I'm back and doing it right this time. I need to do it for myself and my health. I have too much to lose being over-weight. I'm gonna battle like I did before.

I have learned LOSING 100+ LBS and gaining some back is a very long journey within and outside. You can't do it without constant support and reminders of the past. Once you reach a certain mind set, things change. Things get harder but that's what's great, you've come so far even if it's just establishing that your ready for change again and again, I can tell you now from my life that you have what it takes & you will do it.

*IF YOU NEED ADVICE LET ME KNOW*

"Your greatest challenge isn't someone else. It´s the aching in your lungs,the burning in your legs and the voice inside that yells CAN"T. Don´t listen, push harder and hear the voice that yell's I CAN. You then realize that the person you thought you were is no match for the one you really are."


My names Meilene but everyone calls me Mae. I am 21 years old & I have changed my life since February 2009 by changing eating habits, learning to love exercise & by learning the strength I have physically & emotionally as a person. I struggle every single day from what to eat to how to exercise. I'm starting to revamp my attention toward being healthy not just weight loss, which is how I started my journey & lost sight of that along the way. My whole entire life has been focused on WEIGHT, but I started making healthier lifestyle changes back in February 2009 weighing in at 315lbs and I haven't looked back since, I cant even remember who I was before then.

-Life can be demanding and take almost everything you have from you. I lost sight of what I was becoming and stopped caring about myself. It hasnt been easy, but what in life is?


"Life is the ability to feel so happy, you think your insides are going to explode. it’s being so upset or disappointed, you feel as if your stomach just dropped ten feet out of place. it’s running so hard, you can barely breathe. it’s that feeling of panic when you know you’ve been caught doing something wrong. it’s having that sudden rush before you kiss someone you care about. it’s opening your eyes and feeling them sting because you spent the whole night crying. it’s letting people go, but letting new ones come in and all the while, realizing that life doesn’t have a purpose unless you let it."

My Program:
I started my health kick from a young age, nothing ever worked though. Until 2009 I started eating healthier and exercising, I did not let anything stop me. 2010 came around and I lost sight of what it was I was searching for by becoming healthier.

Hunny I so know what this is like I have always been big and twice before I have dropped lots of weight, in 1999 I dropped 5 stone and got down to a uk size 10-12
gained it all back and some
in 2003 I lost 6 stones which got me down to a size 20-22 uk size
got pregnant and gained it all back again and some
now i am fighting to lose 16 stones of weight I have lost 3stones (44lbs)
This time around I have come to terms with that this battle is forever, I can never go back to eating the junk and too much of it.
its true what they say its a complete change for life that is needed. All the best emoticon

YOU CAN DO THIS!!!

Heck, you did it before and can do it again! With the support of others, there will be challenging days, but you can keep it up and will keep the excess off!

Have confidence in yourself and your dreams become realities!

You have done so well Mae. I have spent over thirty years yo yo dieting. But in that time I never got to a size or weight I was happy to say I had done it.
But you have got down 100 pounds, that is amazing.
You have motivated people because you are an inspiration.Keep up the good work emoticon
