Ht. 5'5", Start: 170 lb, Today: 159 lb (BMI %tile: 95), Goal: 112 lb - Well, I have to go to a doctors appointment today... scared to death my moms gonna see my weight.... IDK why but I can't stand when she talks to me about dieting and weight loss...
Anyways... I'm homeschooled now because I was falling behind academic wise... but I'm getting into plenty of activities and volunteering more. I and GOING to weigh 112 by May if it kills me (JK) I will be at my goal weight when I go to back to school in August, Its my main priority. I can't stand not wearing hip clothing and skirts and stuff.
Can you guys try to help me feel better about my docs appointment today? Thanks in advance.

i feel thee same way about it i hate having to go to the doctors and having them talk to me about my weight i feel that it just brings down my self esteem even more than it all ready is. my mom and grandma took me to the doctors one day and they told me i was going for a check up and that was a lie they brought me in for my weight and they sat me down with the doctor i felt horable i couldnt stop crying they had betrayed my trust and i had nothing else to do but cry abou it so dont feel bad we have all been there
