I am 5ft. 3in and weigh 140lbs! I have tried to los weight but I just can't. I am like one of the biggest girls in my school and at my dance studio. I hate it, especially when this one girl kept making fun of my size. My doctor even told me I need to lose weight. What should I do? I have tried dieting and excersicing but nothing works! Why me?

Heartwhisper answered Monday January 2 2006, 3:19 pm: You will not gain weight on veggies and rice... but don't use white rice, no nutrition what so ever.....also stay away from anything in flour in it, bread and bread products(muffins, rolls, cookies, pancakes, waffles, most cerals) and stay away from pastas, sphagetti stuff.... they'll put weight on most of us out here.... find ways to enjoy and prepare veggies and fruits...but don't mix fruits with meals...eat them separately and make certain you're having a bowel movement for every meal you eat, if you're not, then you aren't eliminating the waste/toxins from your system.... and sometimes young people go through their 'fat stage' but again, look at what you're fueling our body with and then try to upgrade and improve upon your choices.... it will assist you in the long run, afterall you've got lots of years left to spend in that physical body of yours..... take care and good luck... stay away from sodas, especially those horrible diet ones.... they kill brain cells your body doesn't ever replace...

If you havent..I really think you should..go to Wal-Mart and go by the moives and look for Pilatie tapes and then do that!! I know it is hard but trust me it works!! I went to this class for 2 hours ( and its totally fun ) and we did 150 crunches and the day after my abs hurt like crazy so it does work!! Make sure you work out where you feel it..but if you are not feeling it you are not doing it right!! I hope I helped!!! Good Luck!! If You need anything else im here!!!

well I know you may have heard this but self image affects how other people look at you. Also you could try to just cut out small things (such as stop drinking soda) and try to only drink water- that helps alot. You could also ask the doctor for a pamphlet. I don't know how old you are but if you take health then you could learn from your textbook. It's great that you dance because it's a good workout.good luck
