I Need to Lose 30 Lbs

A personal story in the experience: I Want to Lose Weight
I am 5'4" and 137 lbs today.  I desperately NEED to lose 30 lbs.  I have been much lower than that, but was forced to fatten up (long story).  I want to lose 30 lbs to start with and then take it from there...

Whatever! I'm 5'4 and I weigh much more than that! I just want to get down to 145. The healthy weight for 5'4 is between 110 and 130, but I like to be curvy and voluptuous. You don't want to be too skinny, do you?!

I don't think you should lose 30lbs. I'm your same height and I went down to 120 and people kept asking me if I was anorexic and told me I looked unhealthy. Now I'm at 145 and I'm honestly happier at this weight than I was at any other. You probably have a great body and there's no need to change it.

Long a staple of Eastern and holistic medicine, the Goji Berry is renowned for its antioxidant properties that provide a variety of benefits including increased energy and heightened immune function. The weight loss properties of this natural ingredient have recently seen the fruit becoming popular stateside as well, especially among celebrities and many stars in Hollywood with the Goji Berry being featured on many television programs and in magazines. The risk free trial is shown in the USA, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and all EU countries. Outside of these countries, the customer will see a paid offer http://www.gojiadvance.com/?aid=124146

I don't want to sound mean. But society is what you're looking at in your pursue of weight loss at this point, because I have to say that your weight is perfect, and by your pic you look great! Please don't let this skinny-anorexic society get in your head.

Ok so that you all feel better. I'm 50 years old. Going through menopause have really made me gain weight, and it seems like nothing I do helps. It is all around my belly and I hate the way I look, but throughout my life
I had been on evry kind of diet you can think of. At this age I still want to feel and lok attractive (and I don't) but I'm nt willing to starve myyself like I used to.

BY THE WAY GOJI does not work.

I can understand wanting to me as skinny as you have been in the past, trust me we all want that. But the healthy weight for 5'4" is 140. so losing 30 lbs would clearly be an unhealthy choice.

How about you just be healthy!!! Take walks, eat good food, and make healthy choices. Take a good multi-vitamin and just love life (and yourself.) The second you stop focusing on the goal is the second you can't reach it. The goal should be to be healthy... The result is being a fitter, healthier weight. Easy! (I know, i've been there!) *chin up darling!*
