Thank you both. I does feel good sometimes knowing you are not alone. I've been trying to take up jogging on my own (but unfortunately the weather has been preventing me from doing it regularly until it warms up a bit) and I defintely have been trying to watch what I eat. I just need to get a little better about it. I'm already a vegetarian so the only big problems are breads, and junk food. I'm about 5'4 so I'm not terribly overweight. I felt good at one point, nice and comfortable in my body. But then I went and saw my endocrinologist and she basically yelled at me for not losing more weight saying "it should be easy because you're young". Believe it or not, she is no longer my endocrinologist. It's hard when your parents are divorced and the house you are at most of the time doesn't have a treadmill and keeps tempting little objects of food around the house. But I'm glad for all the support.
