Ht. 5'9'', Wt. 190 - Hey guys. My name is Tony and I'm 14. I am 5 foot 9 and weight 190 pounds. I just started high school and I've already been put down because of my weight. I don't know what to do because I am so unhappy. I want to lose about 25 pounds but I need to lose it quick or the insults will keep piling up. If you have and suggestions, please let me know. I could use all the help I can get.

Hi Tony, I'm 14, and I weigh 185 pounds. I'm also about 5'9. I once weighed 225 but I began a diet of my own that I made up and got results very fast. What I did is I made my mom buy me healthy foods like fruit and salads. So for breakfast I'd have fruit, once in a while I'd skip lunch or I'd have a salad, and for dinner I'd eat chicken and veggies. I also ride my bike alot and do 100 - 200 sit ups each night before I go to bed. I lost 45 pounds in about 3 months and about 6 sizes. I'm still going on with my diet but it worked for me and I hope this advice works for you:) The key is to eat healthy and get active.

When someone makes fun of you just push it aside. People make fun of me all the time for different things and I try to not let it get to me. Just change your eating habits and Im sure you will be fine.
