OMG!!!
my mom doesn't LET ME EXERCISE ENOUGH. she doesn't care about my weight - she herself is extremely sedentary all her life and buys junk food too. she says that looks are not important (maybe that's why my dad divorced)and i should focus on school and academics.i hate her 4 this - talk to her every freakin day- she doesn't understand. i can't do much against her, but she makes me wanna die. i'm very lonely and have no friends.i'm considering running away or going to foster home. plzzz help.

I am 5'2", 147 pounds, and I hate myself. I just feel so ugly. I don't even have a pretty face, and I'm just--fat. I just finished my last year of high school, and in all that time not one guy has ever asked me to dance or asked me out on a date. The only way I ever went out with anyone was by asking them myself, and that relationship didn't even work out. I love clothes in theory, but I hate actually shopping because nothing ever fits. What starts out being a fun trip to the mall always ends with a car ride home in tears. I'm just sick of being me all the time. I'm tired of always seeing the same not pretty face in the mirror and hating myself so much and always choosing baggy sweatshirts and sweatpants to try to hide my stomach. Someone actually asked me if I was pregnant--it was the most mortifying moment of my life. I just want to die.

Hey, wot is the most embarassing thing that has ever happened to you with your fat? Mine was when i was swimming in P.E, and i saw one part of my swimsuit bulging, so i decided to get out, and the P.E teacher started asking me why i was getting out, and started hassiling, me, so now obviously, all eyes were on me, and then this one boy yelled out "Hey, i didnt know that elephants were allowed in here! o wait, thats sarah! Hey sarah how much do u weigh? Sh*t man, look at your belly! How do you fit into that tiny swimsuit! isnt that only a size 40!?" of course right then, with my entire class watching me, a seam in my swimsuit split and my fat bulged out the hole. i grabbed it and tried to push it back in, but more just came rolling out. I ran into the changing rooms as fast as i could, wobbling like mad!My togs fell apart in the washing machine that night. The worst bit was that i ... (view more)

In the immortal words of Elanor Roosevelt; "no one can make you feel inferior without your consent"...i'm a freshman boy of almost 400 pounds, and i will NOT let the tauntings and abuse from the jocks and bullies make ME feel in any way inferior to the "beautiful people" !! Ive stopped the school bullies from beating me up and stealing my lunch money, tripping me and spreading viscious rumours about me,and all the other things i endured at school......i told the cops when my school's administrators did nothing. They CANNOT hassle u and beat u up that is assult plain and simple.(Verbal name callings and verbal abuse ARE assult and quite illegal!!) Stand up for urselves,love yourselves and realize we ARE as good as the pretty thin people!! WE ARE !! believe and achieve, and NEVER stop trying to achieve your goals!! I'm down almost 50 pounds and have a loooooooooong way to go to... (view more)

I'm 13 turning 14 in 2 months and my grade 8 grade is at the end of June. My mom is thinking about making me a dress but I don't know if she should cause im so fat and I won't look good in it. I'm 5'3 and a half and I weigh 175. I was 171 2 weeks ago, and I starved myself. But I guess it didn't quite work, and i gained 3 more pounds. I reali need help losing weight ebcause there are lots of people at my school that makes fun of me all the time and it reali hurts my feelings. I cant reali do much sports with running in it because I have reali bad asthma. If anyone knows what I can do plz e-mail me @ babyblue_angel_723@hotmail.com thanks.

I am really depressed, I am 5'6" and 198 pounds, I look at my self and it makes me sick. I see all these normal sized girls wear cute clothes that I dream of wearing but I don't see it happening. I've even thought about suicide, I don't want it to come to that. I'm on the South Beach Diet right now, but I need to drop from about a size 16 to maybe 12. I really want to go swimming this summer, but im ashamed of my body. HELP!!!!!!!
