Hey im 13. My mom first noticed i was gaining weight when fat started hanging over my jeans and my shirts were getting stretched out. When i was 11 i weight 99 lbs. and when i turned 12 and hit puberty i started eating more and more. i quickly went from 100 to 130 when my docter told me i needed to loose weight i lose 20 lbs. and was back to 110. After a summer of sitting around i was 135. i didnt realize i gained weight. When i was 14 i went from 130 to 159 and thats where i am now. and thats where i am nowi have very supporitive friends and family and im popular and having an amazing loving boyfriend. I dont eat for emotional eating but just because i like food. Today for breakfast I had 3 doughnuts from Dukin Doughnuts, 2 Ego Waffles, and 2 pieces of leftover pizza from last night. Then about a hour later i got hungry again so i had a bag of popcorn. Then me and my boyfriend went out for lunch. I had 5 potato skins and the salmon. Then we went out for ice cream. I dont even know if i want to loose weight. My boyfriend says he likes a girl whos a little chubby and my mom says all i would need to do is loose 5 pounds and i would be okay but no more then 5. I asked her if i should loose 20 and she said no then i would be underweight. all my friends think im fat. i just weight myself and im 158...what do you guys think? should i go on a diet?

I think she is 15, and she meant to say that. She is talking back, when she was 14. and so on.

How come u said u r 13 and then u r 15 and then u r 14, confusing. I would not lose any weight if I were you, just b/c ur boyfriend doesn't want you to, but I would eat healthier foods.

how tall are you? I dont think you need a diet, but try to eat healthier choices just for health reasons. And no one can make that decision but you. You are lucky to have such a great boyfriend!
