I'm a full time Mom, Student and Paralegal. 38 y/o from Los Angeles. I'm looking to get my pre-Mommy figure back (I lost it 15 yrs. ago)








I am a 30 year old single mom. I am disgusted with myself because I weigh more now than when I did when I gave birth to my son 11 years ago. I am very athletic but it is very hard for me to lose weight. I have struggled with my weight for almost 15 years.


I'm 41, stay at home mom of 3 kids, ages 13, 6 & 2. I've gained 15 lbs over the past 6 months and I'm really hard time loosing it. I ordered the Fat Smash Book the other day and am anxiously waiting for it to arrive and start the diet. I've been on diets off and on for the past 25 years and am tired of yo-yo dieting. I also just joined a gym and have started working out again. I REALLY hope this diet works!


I am a 30 something mother of 6 living in Mass and have been struggling with my weight for years (especially since having my children). I am determined to focus on losing the weight I have gained over the past several years. I know it want be easy but I am sure with the support of all of you it will happen in 2009.





I'm a 36 y/o mother & wife. I am the only woman in my house & have to feed 3 very big eaters. It seems like my weight came out of nowhere right after my wedding in March of '07. I was going to a personal trainer, but now that I'm laid off, I cannot afford it. I need some type of support system, because I realize that I'm a nervous/stressed/emotional eater.


I am a working mother of 2 school age boys and the wife of a fabulous man (going on 10 years now)


I am 35yrs old. The mother of 3. I work full time and I am very active in volunteering.


27 year old mother of 2. I am desperate to be 150 pounds again. Right now, I am weighing in approximately 175 pounds. I would love to lose the extra weight and regain some of my confidence.


25Married with 2 children Daughter: 8 years Son: 5 years Stay at home mom and wanting to look much better for my self esteem. Just quit smoking 4 months ago...


41 years old, mom of three kids, married 15 years





I am 34 yrs old with a hubbie and 2 darling daugters. I would love to include my entire family in a healthier lifstyle.





I AM A 33 YEAR OLD MARRIED MOTHER OF 2. WANTING TO GET HEALTHY TO BE AROUND FOR MY FAMILY. ALSO WANTING TO HAVE ANOTHER BABY AND NOT START OFF OVER WEIGHT!


I turn 39 (...EEEK!) tomorrow, July 20th. I have worked as an educator for 14 years, as a classroom teacher and now a program coordinator. I really like my job (the most I've ever liked one) but I have gained about 30 lbs. in the past year and cannot get rid of the belly. I feel like I just look at food and gain 10 lbs! I'm single and have the obligatory "cat" but do have a boyfriend who has been in rehab for the past 7 mos (that's another story altogether....)





I am 32 with one son, 11 yrs old plus two 'bonus' children, 10 (boy) and 13 (girl). I live with my boyfriend and son and the other two kids are with us half time. We ride motoX alot with the kids and spend a lot of time at other activities with them, bmx racing, etc.


I'm 48 years old, mother of three and married for over 16 years. Attending my 30 year High School Reunion in late August. Used to be very active but kids, marriage and work had given me great excuses to not take care of me. Now it's my time!


I'm a working mother of two boys and currently trying to start my on medical billing business.





I am a 46 year old recently divorced woman. I managed to knock off 70 lbs 2 years ago with a lifestyle change of healthy eating and exercise. My Peertrainer groups also played a roll in my success. Over the past year however, I lost my focus by not managing the stresses in my life. I have since gained 10 lbs and let my exercise routine slide. Not anymore, it is time to refocus on my goals and become an active member of PT again.








I'm a separated mom of three (one boy; 7, two girls; 5mos and 18mos). I am soon to be divorced and wanted to make a change in my life. I've been so unhappy about my weight for so long - I've finally decided to stick to it this time.





I am a twenty year old college student who has always been over weight. I remember a child hood of fast food and junk food and I'm ready to change that.


I'm a 22-year-old full time student on summer break, working two jobs this summer (legal assistant during the week and retail on weekends). I'm an acting student, so you can imagine the pressure to 'look right' for the industry. I just work all the time, and it's hard to eat right when when you're trying to eat quickly. I also have horrid sciatic pain that sends me to the hospital sometimes. When it flares up, I can't even walk, much less work out, and end up on the couch with pain killers and junk food to help me forget the pain.


I'm a nursing student and I work 70+ hours a week. I'm a busy girl with a lot on my plate.

I am a new mother and have struggled with weight loss since I was a teenager. Since having my son, I can feel a physical difference in my body - my muscles are weakened and my skin is not as firm. I simply want to feel better and see myself in a more positive light.


I'm about to graduate from Fashion Design next February. I looooooove what I've studied, and looooooooooove clothes and accesories, but I feel I can't dressed as I would love to because of my body. I'm sick entire of feeling fat and ugly, of not having self-confidence and feeling self-conscious. I need to lose weight, I need to start seeing myself differently, I need to start loving and accepting me phisically.





I teach full-time, have two young kids, and spend hugh amounts of time driving them around. The distance between school and day-care is about 30 minutes.


Female, late 30's.


i'm a procrastinator

I used to be very active, swimming, karate, gymnastic, lifting, the whole nine. School started stressing me out, got depressed, lost the Umpph then picked it up again and came to DC and BAM. Work life took over more than health.

I'm a 34 year old woman in the PacNW. I currently have about 100 pounds to lose. Had previously lost 75, and recently regained 40 of it. I work as an accountant for a large company, so I spend 40-50 hours a week sitting. My partner of 3 years is a fitness freak. I'm a former athlete, but after being diagnosed with autoimmune disease in my late 20's have not been doing so well at maintaining my weight.

i am a 21 year old college student. i've gained about 40 pounds in the last 2 or 3 years. i gained the last 24 of it within the 6 months. this is the heaviest ive ever been in my life, and ive never felt more helpless. i have no idea how to get it off. ive started hiking the hill to cal state 2-3 times a week, and it seems to be helping.





I am a 22 yr old church going girl & urban fashionista...I just graduated from College in May of 07 with a degree in Public Relations...Right now I'm working full time and living in LI on my own. I'm guilty of late night diner visits with the girls, and since I"m on the go so much I was eating lots of fast food and fried stuff...I've been overweight since about the age of 9...however I've always worn it well and was pretty popular because of my fashion saavy...However through out highschool and college I was still uncomfortable though I covered it up. At 5'9, my 190 pound frame wasn't extremely tough to look at, but I am tired of being in the double digit sizes. Currently I wear between a 12 and a 14, although my recent weight loss has made a few of my 14's a little loose. I began my own weight loss journey on 7/7/07 and so far I've been doing well. However just began the formal Fat Smash diet on 7/20...I'm hoping to drop about 25 more pounds in the next 2 months...











i am a busy person who has been working out/eating well inconsistently for years. i have lost over 80 pounds in the past 5 years, but the last 10-15 are difficult because i cannot seem to stay focused on my goals. i have had a "good enough" attitude as of late.


I am a 23 year old mother of 1 (little girl) and wife. I am blessed to be able to stay at home with my daughter. My husband and I recently moved back to my hometown in, yes...Kenai, Alaska! New place, new habits, new start!

About 7 months ago my father had a mild heart attack and that woke me up...he was only 52 so that means yes it is genetic...also my grandfather on my mothers side died of a heart attack about 5 years ago at the age of 69 ....sooo i now have heart disease and high blood pressure on both sides of my family...WAKE UP CALL...so i feel like i really need to do something about this now...i have ALWAYS had a weight issue and i know that its something i am just ganna have to deal with...but i think i am finally ready to start making the change! ;) i am 5'9 and my highest weight was after i had my daughter, 250lbs... when i got here to europe about a year ago...and slowly i have been working on it...i am now 220lbs and i am ganna keep going until i have met my goal! and for once i am excited about it!!! :) currently living in Europe and my return date back to the states is Oct of 09 and i would LOVE to be able to come back home (San Antonio TX) and be look'n and feel'n great!

Im a 35 yr old male from Montgomery Alabama, currently in law school. I've gotten used to eating when Im bored, going to Sonic or other fast food places, and eating out of the vending machine when I study (which is constantly).


I'm a 39 y/o single Mom of a teenage son. I work full-time and am also a pre-law student.


I am a stay at home mom with two girls, 9 and 6. I am trying to lose 30 pounds.








I am 28 and single living in Baltimore. I'm not too big by any stretch but I have gained about 30 pounds in the past two years. My biggest problems are that I can't fit any of my clothes anymore and can't afford to buy new ones! My second issue is that I am terribly unhealthy and never work out.








I'm a year out of college, and I am a nurse working nights, so my schedule is all messed up. Its hard to work nights then wake up and have a day schedule on my nights off and the weekends. I was very active in high school as a 3 sport athlete.








First grade teacher(am I insane???), mother of two girls ages 9 and 3, divorced but dating an absolutely wonderful man who I adore, want to be the sexy mama I have always wanted to be that I know is in here somewhere!!

I AM 21 POUNDS, MARRIED AND WORK AT A BANK. I HAVE GAINED ABOUT 100 POUNDS SINCE I GRADUATED FROM HIGH SCHOOL.





Hi, I'm 27 years old, single, and I live in Seattle. Sort of. I'm a human performance consultant who travels about 98% of the time for work. I think I spend as much time on planes as many flight attendants! I love what I do for work, and I enjoy traveling to new places and taking scenic photos as well. I enjoy music, reading short stories, home organization / decor and SLEEPING! I am ashamed to admit how much I've let the travel schedule, long work hours and constant eating out pile on the pounds. I have gained 60+ pounds over the past 18 months and can no longer even squeeze into my jeans or comfortably button many dress shirts.











I am 30 years old and I started putting on weight little by little at 25 when I quit smoking. I have never "dieted" before and have never really believed in them but I now relaize I need a schedule to adhere to that will keep me on track. Extreme Fat Smash is more of a lifestyle than a diet to me so I feel thta it will work much more than all those fad diets.


My name is Amie and I'm 31 years old. My weight has always been an issue for as long as I can remember..... even when it wasn't an issue, it was an issue to me. I have a really poor self image.... that's one problem. The other BIG problem is... I LOVE FOOD! I rely on food way too much. I eat when I'm happy, when I'm sad, when I'm mad, when I'm anxious, when I'm confused, when I'm board, oh yeah.... when I'm hungry, and sometimes I eat for no good reason at all. I've been obbsessed with dieting since I was about 9 years old..... mainly because a lot of the adults in my life at that time were all on diets.... for me that was normal behavior. I thought I had to be thin to be loved. I'm over that now. My reasons to lose weight now are very different from my adolesent reasons. I believe my weight may be one of the reasons I cant' get pregnant. My weight has got my hormones all out of wack. About 5 years ago when I had peaked at 200 pounds, I started having hormonal problems. When I was under 200 lbs I never experienced any problems at all. I'm ready to be a mother!!! And I'm not about to let my weight stand in my way any longer.


I am 28 years old married and working as a dispatcher and always on the run











I am 23. I have three wonderful and gorgeous children. A 5 year old son, a 2 year old daughter, and a 9 month old daughter.








Five years ago I was 200 pounds and very unhappy. I set a New Year's resolution to lose weight and found that running and/or walking helped a lot. I lost 60 pounds and decided to branch out into triathlon. Since then, I have done 2 marathons and several 1/2 Ironman triathlons. I have gained back 10 pounds in the last year or so - and I want to get that off and a little more.

I'm 31, a software project manager living with my fabulous hubby and 2 dogs in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
I've been overweight my entire adult life and am sick of worrying about it. I've done well at school, work, and have a great supportive family, so there's no reason I shouldn't be able to lose weight and keep it off. But somehow that's been the hardest thing so far.

I'm a 28 yr. old artist and writer in nj, I've struggled with weight since childhood and I am finally ready to overcome what has been my greatest obstacle. During my stay here I hope to meet supportive, friendly people who are just as driven about losing weight and taking control of their life, as I am.


Medical conditions in the last two years have caused me to gain over 70 lbs thanks to a very slow metabolism. Now that I have it under control, I need to lose the weight I lost originally. =[ I am looking for networking and support, will gladly do the same for anyone who is struggling to lose the weight and keep it off the healthy way.


I am a 20 year old African American college student. I came to college and let go of myself a little bit. I was in denial a little bit about my weight but seeing recent pictures and older pictures I now see what everyone else see. I currently weigh 160 and I would like to go down to atleast 140


I am 48. a mother of 3 grown children. I love to cook, to swim, to dance and to laugh. I have a 3 year old male pommie who has become the center of my life. His name is Angel. He is a strange yet humorous mix of dog & human. Its like having a hairy baby.


I'm a 45 year old mother of three teens. I work as a project manager and am working approx. 130 hours every two weeks and the job involves travel. I am also a full time student. I workout approx. 3-5 times a week, but the weight is not moving. I feel like I'm toning my fat so that leaves me to believe that I need to start counting calories again or at least eat healthy.


I am going to be 40 in just a few weeks!! I am married to my best friend and have 2 teenage boys to keep me busy. I work entirely to much, but being self employeed as a mortgage broker is not always consistent I work part time as a bookkeeper/office manager and go to school online for my bachelors in accounting. We LOVE animals, having 8 horses, chickens, a dog a cat, macaw, cockatoo, love bird and a parrot. Its just like a ZOO!! I love my life, I just dont love me that is the change I am going to make!!

I just completed Phase 1 & lost 7lbs. I've been on so many diets before & have never reached my goal weight of 125 lbs. I'm done with quitting. This is one aspect of my life that I want to be able to control without it controlling me. This is my final step in overcoming this hurtle... no going back now!

I am looking for people that are supportive and that will help keep me on track.

I'm 25 and I work part-time as an ICU nurse. The rest of my time is spent with my family. My husband is a bi-vocational pastor/construction worker, so our schedule stays pretty full.

i'm a 20 year old college student majoring in paralegal. ever since i have graduated from high school, which was about a year ago, i have gained some weight, and i am ashamed of it, and i want to get down to where i can feel good about myself, a lot less from where i was when i was in school.











I'm a teacher in santa monica, single. i've been thin my whole life, until the 2nd half of college. I gained 60lbs over 2 years. I've lost 10 just from being more active and eating better. And now i've lost another 100 on the fat smash diet.

I'm a life long dieter, I have lost 63lbs, kept off 55lbs. I still have a way to go but my goal for the next 10 months is 50lbs, at a rate of 5lbs a month on average. I'm an accountant, I travel for work, which can be a challenge to a healthy lifestyle. I'm tired of having my weight define who I am and I'm past ready to move on from this obstacle in my life.


I'm a usually active guy. I've been training martial arts since I was 7. Although in a certain time I trained 5 to 6 days a week, I was always a little fat. For about 2 or 3 year I had to stop training and I gained about 7Kg. I currently weight 104, 105Kg and I'm 1,70m in height. I'm just looking to be lighter so i can can move even faster and jump easier and higher.

















I am 42 SAHM, will graduate in July with a BA and will continue in Sept to receive my MA and credential to become a High School English teacher. I have two sons and have been married 21 years. I love to garden, write, decorate, create anyway I can. I have a ton of animals, including chickens and have a garden in progress that I hope will provide me with fresh vegies all summer long.

I am married, a 36 year old Mom of 2 wonderful kids. Over the last few years I have put on 40 pounds and am ready to do something about it. Recently suffering from an irregular heartbeat my cardiologist has told me I have to lose the weight, and cut out cafeine and sugar all together. HUGE FOR ME! Diet Coke & Chocolate addict! Today I had an MRI, as I am waiting the results of that I am ready to get on track and lose the weight once and for all, the fear of not being here for my kids is motivation to do it. Aside from that, I am a RN, taking time off to be at home with my kids the last couple of years.


I majored in dieting and minored in cheating. I have been on a diet for ever. And, I am past the big 60 by almost a year. It is now or NEVER!!! I have a very active lifestyle, my son owns a restaurant. We love to entertain and drink some wine. My life is all about food, it seems.


I'm a 25y/o nurse. Just want to lose 10-15lbs. Always had a hard time losing weight. Lost up to 5lbs, but always seem to hit a wall after that.


I am a 28 year old and striving to feel better about myself. I went through a messy relationship and when it ended i gained weight. So frustrating because I am a very active. Right now I have a very low self esteem about my wieght. Its always been low, but this is the lowest it has ever gotten. My mom mentions my weight everytime I see her (or she gives her look of disapproval.) I am not doing this for her though. Its for me 100%. Maybe it will help me gain confidence in my dating life. On another note, I am training for my 1st 1/2 marathon in May and another in June. Any tips for motivation will be helpful!


50 years old working wife/mom. Kids have moved out and it is time for me to take back control of my life, body, etc.


I am 23 years old, and a recent college graduate. I love being outside and activity. Due to my weight gain I have found myslef more reserved than I use to be and uncomfortable in social situations. I want to be the outgoing, fun loving girl that I am. But in order to do that I need to gain control of my food and lose weight.


I'm a working mom-teacher 36 years old I have 2 boys ages 6 and 9. They are the joy of my life. I have a wonderful husband. We have been married for 13 years.
