I am really compelled by your request. I am 18 and I can relate with you. I just want to tell you that I went to the doctors and they said that I have a gland problem which causes me to gain weight even if I diet a lot. They also said to not cut out the good fat like in bread and carbohydrates. I think that you have a right not to want to go to a diet camp, but maybe it would help you,personlay I wouldn't mind going to one myself, atleast I would feel comfortable with my self. It might do you some good if you went there and talked with people face to face, sometimes that really helps. All you parents are trying to do is tell you that they care about you and I do to. I think you will make it and I give you all of the encouragement and hope a person could get! Please write me back and let me know how things turn out. My personal e-mail is cbsenior01@juno.com. Hang in there sweetie.
