This one is about me. I weigh 125 lbs. and I know I am not that overwieght but I still am a little. I have 3 rolls and I love to wear jeans, but when I sit down, my stomach curls and expands and my button pops. I don't want to tell any one. I am a boy, and I am ashamed because most of my excess wieght is on my hips and my butt and my thighs. I only have a small stomach but a gigantic butt. I have been trying to cut my porios and not snack at nigh or through the day and I lost 5 pounds but then took back on 6! Plus, our house is ussually stocked with VERY fattening foods like Fudge Rounds, OREO's cakes pizza and that Stoffer's Mac & Cheese. Please help. Thanxs, Chaz

If you are just aching for a cookie after a long time dieting, I just found out that Dad's Oatmeal Cookies aren't that bad for you! Each cookie only has 50 calories and 1.7g of fat!

about a month ago i started dieting. weight watchers is really good. i used to look at myself against my friends and i was like twice the size of them. i was even fat compared to my teachers! before the diet i weighed 14 stones, i was 5ft 4. now, 1 month on, i weigh 13.5 stones. i know it dont like i've lost lots of weight, but i feel much more confident knowing that one day i will be able to wear whatever i want. and the best thing is that no 1 has noticed i am on a diet! good luck 2 ya all!

This is not about me. I am overweight too, but one of my friends, Shane, is overweight. He is 160 lbs, but he seems to be proud that he is overwieght. He will shake his stomach around and jiggle it, and show off that he is overwieght. He once scoffed down a whole cake, 3 pizza's, and 5 shakes, when we were hanging out. It kind of imbarresses me when he shows of his large stomach. He has been put on a diet many times, but when at lunch, he gets everyones left over's, which is like 6 sanwiches. He eats them all! It just discourages me when he shows off by pulling his stomach out and showing it to everyone. I am sorry if I offended anyone who reads this, but I needed to let out my feelings about Shane.
