You arent really overweight, and those guys are immature and are saying that to you to make them feel better about one of thier shortcomings. Just shedding a few vanity pounds would start to make you feel better about yourself. With that, you will see a difference and want to keep changing. There are a few very simple things that you can do to start this process. Watch the amount that you eat. Not skipping meals, but eating more meals. Going without eating is very unhealthy and could cause serious problems down the raod. Eat smaller portions, smaller meals, more times a day. Be sure to eat the first thing in the morning after waking up; something light and healthy (nonfat yogurt, fruit, etc.) to get your metabolism going. This will move your body from the sleep stage to the waking stage quicky, burning more calories quicker. This will end up making you more hungry during lunch time. When its time for lunch, again, eat small portions, and not until youre full. Just a light meal. If possible, do so again right after school, and then at dinner. Talk to your parents about what youre wanting to do. They can help you, and wont harass you about not eating a large dinner. Stay away from snacks, pop, and fast food. A meal at McDonald's is about what your caloric intake should be for the day, and will be way over your ideal fat intake. Don't eat anything after 8pm. This will prevent food from sitting in your stomach all night, when the least calories are burnt. With excercise, start with something lightly like making sure to walk everywhere you go. Then, start with doing some aerobic workouts. Just doing situps will build muscle underneath your stomach and love handles and will acually make you look bigger because the fat wont be getting burnt off, and there will be muscle building underneath is. Stop weighing yourself. Weight means nothing. Once you start to work out, muscle will be gained and fat will be lost and muscle weighs more than fat. Don't look for instant gratification. You are going to lose weight slowly so it will stay off. Losing large amounts of weight quickly will greatly increase your chances of gaining it back quickly. You want to make this a lifestyle change and not just a quick fix. Hopefully changing your eating habits and then SLOWLY starting to implement a workout plan will get you into the physical condition that you want to be in.
