Hi! This weird for me cause we have the same name and when i was 13 i was in your exact situation! The most I can remember weighing is 170 pounds, but I was probably around 175 at one time or another. Now I am 150 pounds and i feel so much better! By media standards I am still obese, but to myself, I am the healthiest I have ever been. A few things I did: count calories such as eating only 1500 calories a day. I exercised such as running in place for 10 minutes a day. I am currently doing tae bo and I can't believe how much stronger my legs are! Try to take little steps. It took me a year to lose that much weight, and, eventhough I am at a plateau right now at 150 pounds, I don't really care as long as I feel good about myself. P.S. I am 5ft 1in, How tall are You? Good luck!
