Hey.
My name is Caroline too. First of all, Who cares what other people think.Even though it may be true don't let it get to you. I used to get teased all the time. Ignore people who say mean things to you. Tell them that you don't think it's nice them teasing you and have a go at them. you know? Don't let them ruin your life. To lose weight you can drink lots of water , no fast,junk food, lots of friut and veggies and lots of exercise. Put your mind to it and you'll be fine. Believe you can do it and you can.
GOOD LUCK
Love Caroline.

the first thing you need to remember is that it is going to take time. you need to make sure you have a decent amount of excersise. Next you need to eat three healthy meals a day. You need to let your parents know and ask them to help you by not buying junk food and cooking healthy food so that you have no excuse for eating junk food. And you can have healthy snacks which could be an apple, yogurts, and you should try to cut as much junkfood out of your diet as possible and drink at least 7-8 glasses of water a day

Tell your teacher if kids are making fun of you and your teacher will tell them to stop.

I know it hurts when people make fun of you. In 5th grade my nickname was Bessy the Cow and everyone would call me Cow all the time. It really sucked. In 4th grade my nickname was Slimfast. Try to ignore them, it didn't ususally work for me but thats what everyone always says. If that doesn't work you can tell them that 1.You don't care what they say. 2.That you are trying to lose weight. Or you could say something mean back like tell them to get a life and to stop saying crap to you becuase you don't care. Or point out something you don't like about them or whatever. I know it hurts but keep your head up. The teasing got better in 7th grade for me because I wasn't with the same people all day. I made a lot of new friends, my grades are way up and I'm a lot happier. Don't worry things will get better! With Love, Rachel
