I come from a family which tries to feed almost 10 people off of almost nothing. Eventually you learn there are ways to get healthy food for almost nothing, if you're careful on how you buy. Lots of stuff has store brand copies for much less- they're usually on the bottom of shelves. I know here you can get dented cans of fruit and veggies for 10-15 cents each. Keep your head up. It's no shame not to have much money.

amanda, just becuase your mother doesnt have money for diet food right now, doesnt mean you cant simply eat what you have. almost EVERY kitchen is stocked with some fruit, veggies, some cerals, and perhaps other foods. you dont NEED certian foods to diet. i understand its harder not to have atkins low carb pizza in the fridge, but that doesnt mean you CANT diet, it means you can!

just eat less of what you have. you can still calculate the calories with junk food you know...

Sweetie, just because you're overweight doesn't mean you should want to die! YOu have sooo much to live for! NOw, I understand your situation...waiting for the food to come along. I'm sure there are healthy alternatives in your house for you to eat. Eggs are really good...I'm sure you must have some veggies or fruits or cereal...right? Never give up!
