hi everyone. i was wondering if any of u feel the same way as i do. i'm fat and disgusted by what i see in the mirror everyday. i try to go on diet but i just can't stick with it. i also blame weight and ugliness on not EVER having a boyfriend in my entire life. and i'm already 16. i've NEVER even gone on a single date before. if any of u r going through the same thing or have any advice please reply. thank u very much

i know the way u guys r feeling. i never had a boyfriend up until a year ago. i blamed that on being fat because im 220lbs and thought no guy could ever like me. i decided i hated feeling sorry for myself and to look like i didnt care about my weight and b confident even if i wasnt. well it worked and i have the most gorgeous boyfriend who is a fitness instructer & doesnt care about my weight. people send out vibes and men arent attracted 2 negative vibes. if you make the effort you will get a boyfriend....good luck....xxx

If your freind thinks she is overweight i think that you should try and help her eat better.

If he is trying to fatten you up, and you are sure about this, maybe you should dump him. If someone likes you he shouldn'thave to change the way you looked before, just to please his likings. If he likes bigger, fatter woman, he can go and find one himself. Not try and fatten you up so he'll like you more.

Hi. I think it is great that you are trying to lose weight, but you should do it for YOU not anyone else. And believe me at your age you don't need a boyfriend. You should be more concerned with your friends then a boyfriend. It is great to have support, but you shouldn't look for a guy to care about you in order for you to care about yourself.

Has the thought of commiting suicide ever crossed your mind? I lay awake in bed thinking if I don't loose weight soon I'm going to kill myself. I'm 5'3 and 187. I'm huge I can't deny it anymore I'm going into 8th grade and my boyfriend keeps saying he'll leave me if I dont shape up. How is the best way to loose weight, because my clock is ticking.

First off if your b/f is tellin you negitive things then you need to dump his sry a**. he isn't any good for you if he is goin to be puttin you down. b/fs should love you for who u r. so just dump him your probably much better of without him.

i was over weight but now i'm not and i worked very hard for that, but now i have a friend who IS over weight and she eats all the time and always asks me if i want some of what she is eating. i donno about u, but where i live over weight is somthing that isn't really talked about with over weight people and i don't want her to feel left out if she is the only one eating and i'm not. i am afriad it might make her feel fat so i say yes to whatever she wants me to eat. but i really don't want to eat what she eats because i'm afraid that i might gain weight and be like her again. what should i do!!!?

I agree with camille. I was at my friends the other day, she isn't overweight, and she was having cookies and junk, and I just told her I wasn't hungry. Which, I really wasn't hungry. If you don't want to eat something and you arent hungry, nobody should make you eat anything. Maybe you not having anything would inspire her...:-P

Omigosh don't feel ANY guilt about not eating what she wants you to eat. just be polite and say,"No thank you." If your friend says something like,"No come on, just have some." dont give in, just tell her you aren't hungry or that you would prefer fruit or something along those lines. I don't think she will get mad at you. If she does, ask her why she is mad, because she shouldn't be.

First of all, it would help all of us if you could tell us your height and weight. Second, at 12 most girls only like guys that they hang out with, or are their friends. Most of the time it developes from a friendship, to a crush, to a dating relationship. For right now, just get some friends. Be nice to people. You'll be surprised by how many people actually will like you for who you are. There are people out there who feel the same way you do, and will understand how you feel, so don't think you are the only soul on earth who has to deal with a social problem. Finding someone who relates to you can give you a great friendship, and if it's a girl, you might just be lucky enough to like each other for more than friends. If you go looking for love, it will avoid you, just sit back and relax and it will come knockin' on your door! Good luck.

I dont think anyone likes being fat, and you will only find love when you love yourself, so tell yourself you're beautiful, and soon you'll find a special someone will too

Hi. My name is Katie and I weigh 115lb. I am 5'1. All my friends are thinner than me and they make fun of me for not looking like them. I want to loose weight, and fast. I have been struggling my whole life. Please tell me what I should do. Thanks a lot.

obviously these people arent really your friends if they make fun of you. to lose weight you have to love yourself, inside and out. i know its hard when you can only see flaws but try to be positive and get yourself some nice friends that'll encourage you and help you

I have an extremely overweight friend, who dosnt even seem to notice how overweight she is. She eats a lot and all the time...i dont know how to tell her that she is overweight, and shouldnt eat like that. She dosnt even care that people tease her constantly, and that its harder for her to do certain things. I feel real bad for her, and i feel bad myself for not doing anything. But, i dont know how to tell her. PLEASE reply with any ideas. I need to tell her someway, and soon.

wella wella well well...ok. heres what ya do- ask her if she wants to do this new diet you read/heard about with you. you guys could go jogging or workout together and both of you could write out menues of what is OK to eat on your new diet plan. this way you do not have to single her out by sitting her down and telling her shes fat and needs help. this would acheive anymore than making her feel like a complete loser. afterall, no one can be TOO fit and ya'll might have major bonding time in the process.

Hey yall, its after X-mas and the damage has been done, man-i know i strayed from my diet, but you can't give up, i know its hard, after the x-mas sweets, cakes, turkey, and stuffing its hard to convince yourself that you have a chance to lose it again or at all. Find your motivation, my motivation, which helps me stay on track is to remember the guys who treated me bad, or made fun of me, and how when i lose the wieght, go right up to them and show them up, and pick another guy instead of them. I think about coming all skinny and beautiful and those stupid guys saying thier sorry and then not giving them a chance. That motivates me to excercise and drink water, and eat healthier, so i can lose the 20lbs i wanna lose. I wiegh 142lbs, i wanna do what it takes to lose this 20lbs pounds and be a size three. Well, good luck guys, wish me luck.

Me again, I need a e-mail lose weight partner. I do not care who it is as long as they are able to pull me along with them. Anyways, Do you know what makes me sick!? Is when girls from school, who are like a size zero, say "I am so FAT". What does that make me!? An elephant? All the guys I know (who are my best buds) have said I would look cute if I lost weight. My mom says every guy would have to hunt me down. I like it when guys pay attention to me but I am so overweight. One day I would love to go into a fashionable store and get the hottest clothes out. Without the embaressment of not finding my size. Does anyone have tips? Also, when I say I am on a diet my friends always invite to a movie then to a fast food restaurunt. It is so tempting!! Have you ever had a picture of yourself skinny and you looked so good? I have a dream but it seems impossible to attain it!
