Hey ya'll, I'm Evie, and I promise to give advice to every problem no matter how complicated. I'm blunt with answers to problems, so I'll always be truthful and give my honest advice. I know what it feels like when you think no one wants to listen to your problems, but I'm here to listen, and to help you with them the best that I can.
I've been through a lot..And not just with issues with guys, a lot of family problems too. So I can relate to a lot.
I'm 14 and from Wisconsin. I love figure skating (life long sport),running,softball, swimming, animals, being near the ocean, going on vacations, going to movies, hanging out with friends,harry potter,guys, reading, writing, and just plain old having fun! =)

Hey everyone. I'm a 16 yr old female and I've been living with a weight issue all of my life. Both of my parents were big people and of course I ended up the same as them. I've been teased a lot my whole life because of it, people do it without realizing how much it hurts. Right now I'm about 5'7-5'8 and weigh about 190lbs. I really want to lose weight but every time I try, I can't keep up the motivation. I try not eating junk food, I don't drink soda, but I still cant manage to lose the weight. I walk a lot, but the problem is I guess that I don't have people that are behind me in this. My mom keeps buying junk food, and if it's here I'll end up eating it and feel bad for it afterwards. I really need help in doing this alone but I don't know how. I'm hoping someone can help me before it gets worse. I'm hoping to lose a significant amount of weight maybe before next summer. I rate also, thank you so much. (link)

First off, try talking to your mom about it. Tell her you love her, and you love her buying you food that's sweet, but that you'd really like to lose some weight. If she starts saying stuff like "You're the perfect weight" Make her see that it's unhealthy being overweight, or if you have to, go to a doctor who can talk to your mom and put you on a healthy diet.
If you can't talk to your mom about it, then whenever she buys junk food, train your mind to eat something else, it's REALLY hard (I've tried it) But you have to train your mind. Instead of reaching for an Oreo, eat an orange, oranges have natural sugar but aren't fattening. Try running, sounds ridiculus, but try it, if it doesn't work for you then stop.
To keep up the motivation, everytime you're about to eat junk food, imagine yourself thinner, and getting on the scale and being proud of your weight, imagine yourself looking into the mirror and seeing an image you like. Start out with small goals for yourself, like losing 1-2 lbs a week. Eventually the motivation should become second nature. Hope I helped =)
