And to brian, you can focus on one part of your body. But it will even out as you said.

I have to disagree with Natasha and Ben.
I disagree with natasha because honesty is what a relationship needs. Your boyfriend didn't say you don't look nice now, or that he's not going to like you if you dont lose weight. He was honest with what he thought, without insulting you.
To Ben, he was wrong because not all people grow when they're 14. Some grow a lot after and during, but some grow a little before, but not much after. (I should know, I've stopped growing...lol) It really depends how tall your family is. But if you want to change something about yourself, go for it. i recommend counting calories, eating 5 veggies/fruits, 6 8oz (1 cup) glasses of water, and 3 8oz milk (2 if ur an adult...lol) and exercise 20 min a day 4-6 times a week at least. It should help. You aren't going to lose it all over night, but in time. :-) If you wanna talk about anything my email is Sunny680ajh@aol.com

Basicly any excersises will generaly burn the fat throughout the whole body, its impossible to focus on one part of the body (who cares what they say on tv), the body will balace its self as your burn the fat. the more overweight a person is: they can burn fat faster and more in a shorter period of time if they change their diets and do more excersize and avoid eating those unessassery foods (mayo, extra sugar, penut butter, ect...). If you do anything, you may not see results in first few weeks, but dont worry because its only the begining.

Hey
I think you should be happy with your self because If your only 14 you will grow taller so I think if you want to lose some weight walk or ride a bike for about 3 hours a day it will work Bye
