Hey! My name is Nikki and I am also overweight, I am 13, about 5'5" and almost 160 lbs. I get made fun of alot and right now I am on a diet. When you said your friend drank water all the time, do you mean not eating at all?? It is possible to live without food, as long as your drinking at least 8 glasses of water a day or more. But that would kind of suck, dont you think? I am willing to this, I want to be thin, but I dont think you would have much energy. Drinking lots of water is good, and eating healthy is probably the best way to go. Or like me, if healthy food is not always available; eat smaller portions, thats what i do. I am a large eater and love food, so Im just starting to eat not as much. i am a size 13 in juinors but sometimes that does not fit either. I havent heard of the Dr. Atkins diet, but Im taking Metabolife, which works pretty good. Slim Fast does not work, If u want to try that, trust me. Some people gain weight from eating carboyhydrates, and some lose, most gain. Slim Fast is full of carbs. Man, im like going on forever here so u can email me at: nikki_chickie45@hotmail.com Good Luck!
