weight
im 15 and a sophomore in highschool and i'm over weight. Im not gunna say how much cuz i don't feel confortable saying it but it's quite a bit. I'v lost 30 pounds beofre but most ofit came back and its really hard. The strange thing is im pretty athletic and im even faster then some of the small girls n my school. I'm tired of being fat and of people making fun of me sumtimes. It makes me hate myself and sometimes i juss wanna die. I dont remember a time in my life when i was really actually happy. I know that if i lose alotta weight. I try but i never get to far. I'm eating better then u use to but now i just stay the same weight gaining or loseing 2 or 3 pounds. I never throw up so doing bulimia is outta the question. I dunno what else to do.

First, don't say that about yourself! be happy you aren't in a wheelchair and that you can run around and play. Remember that some bodies are just larger than others. But keep losing weight until you reach your goal, and continue to exersize and eat right. I hope I helped, and please rate me!
Love,

Hey therE! Well, first off stop being so hard on yourself and feeling so down and ashamed! There's no rule book in life that tells us that we have to be skinny. The only reason people think "skinny is in" is because of society and the media. So, don't make yourself feel like an outcast. There's no need for it. Now with that said, if you are severly over weight, well then yes the sensible thing to do would be to drop of few. But do not ever let the decsion be pursuaded because of what other people may think and or say. If you are going to do something concerning you..then do it for you, and you only. There's a girl that I go to school with that is just like you; she is overweight but extremely athletic. She's the best player on Varsity basketball, and on varsity track. Sure when we were in grade school some of the kids may have made fun of her, but she's made a name for herself now and people respect. So keep up with the atletics. get involved in as many activities as you can. Be friendly..if you act comfortable about who you are your size other people will too. You control it. Now then, if you really would like to lose weight the best thing to do would to go on a diet. Don't pick a diet that is going to make you feel starved and deprive you of the foods you love. Here are some of the ways to go about this: Go to your doctor and work out a game plan with him, get your family involved and get the junk food out of the house, go on the southbeach diet (I personally find this to be the most effective), weightwatchers (also very effective), etc. There are tons of things to take action on this situation. So here's my basic suggestion- you can doctor it up to fit your needs.
First, go to BMISCALE.COM and see how much over weight you are. Then, pick a target weight goal that you would like to get to. After, pick a diet of your preference. Join a gym or use a tredmill at home or decide to go running. Drink lots of water. Tell your family you are doing this so they can help you and support you. Go to the grocery store and pick out the foods for your new diet. (If you like you could get a friend to go on one with you). Then once you have done all of these things make a sceduled timelime for yourself. Put breakfast, lunch, and dinner on there with times for you to excersize and do all your other daily tasks. And say after after every 2 weeks check on your weight to see the progress. Like I said these are just the basics. Just remember, you CAN do this tons of other people have done it so you can too. Just put faith into it, pray, be determined, and work hard at acheiving this goal. Stop letting this get you down or wanting to die..you are how you are because God created you. Be thankful. If you want change, work for it. Don't care about other people's opinions-especially sophomore-they tend to be immature. Well, I hope I helped. Good luck! :)

Hey, It dosent matter how much you weigh! It matters what you act like. It seems like you have a great heart and thats all that matters. Dont let what anyone says affect the way you think about yourself, because you are great person!!!!!!!!

Most people don't really know whats good for you and whats not good for you. Due to a lot of things on tv and in magazines recently, people think that low carb is the way to go. Unfortunately you can't do any kind of long-term exercise without carbs. If you want to know the specifics of why leave one in my inbox cause it will take a long explanation. The best advice i can give you is just to leave you a few facts. Muscle burns more calories at rest than fat does. So a really fat person weighing 200 lbs would lose weight slower than a really muscular person weighing 200 lbs. Saturated fats are much worse than normal fats. A person weighing 140 lbs burns approximately 100 calories per mile that they run no matter what the pace. I've got more stuff to just keep in mind, just tell me if you want them.
