Hi everyone im Heather and im 14 years old. It sucks to be overweight! I hate shopping cuz i can never find any descent clothes to wear,cuz im a size 16. You know what i hate the most? Is when skinny girls say "im so fat" then i think to myself, i must be as big as an elephant. I hate my body and the way i look most of my friends are really skinny and have nice bodies, that makes me soooo self concience. Ive tried dieting, i loose the weight, but then i just gain it back. The thing i dont understand is that its not like im sitting around all day i m active i play softball, i do boxing and sometimes dance. I guess im just one of those people who are meant to be fat their whole lives. If anyone has any advice please help me!!!!!

Okay, This is what I do. I start a diet for a couple of days, lose weight, then I end up breaking the diet. Gain back the weight I lost. Then feel really crumby. So I start my diet again, lose the weight, and once again, gain it back. I can't stick to my diet. And I cant seem to get energy enough to exerciseeeee!!!!!! What is wrong with me. Gosh!

OK so i blew becoming a vegetarian. I relized how much more i was binging on the very few foods i could eat and was never satisfied at the end of each meal. Now, although there is that tinge of guilt for not helping the animals (lol the sounds geeky) i relized my body was more important so here i am again eating healthy and hopefully start losing some more weight! Here's my question: is too much sleeping(like 12 instead of 9 hours) bad?

I hope it's normal to feel depressed when you're first starting to diet and exercise. Cause lately, i've been just wanting to cry, for no reasons. Its almost 330 in the morning here. I just woke up feeling like i want to die, and i looked in the mirror, and was completely and utterly disgusted with what i saw. Well, I'm trying not to give up on my diet, and i have cut back on the hours that i watch tv. I won't allow myself to eat while I watch tv either.. Well, this is all i have to say, I'm dumb. Peace out,

I must say.. talking about losing weight is so much more easier than doing so. If only losing weight was as easy as gaining it, then i think i'd be a bit more happy. I feel like I'm wasting my youth worrying too much about my 'fat' and how i look. I know that there will be people who will like me for who i am.. but i hope that i will be able to like me for who i am. It's hard when i hate the way i look, to see how someone else could like it. I keep telling myself i need to diet and exercise. but im just so lazy, i'd rather sit infront of the tv all day. I cant get motivated enough to diet and exercise, and i cant believe i waited till the last minute to start dieting. sometimes i can't stand myself.blah blah blah blah. i know this is dumb and boring, i just had to let it out, and this was the only place i felt that i could. sorry to waste your time.

Also...i had a protein shake for breakfast, then a scrambled egg sandwich with grapes and milk for lunch and feticini noodles, brocoli, salad, and chicken for dinner (then the cookie dough and ice cream!) it so addicting!

I've given up! I'm just going to be fat and have a bad life. Who cares if I die early? No one cares about me. It'll put me out of my misery!
