Ht. 5'8", Start: 19 st 0, Today: 20 st 5 (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 9 st 0 - I've been fat for as long as I can remember, but my weight really started to balloon at 10/11. No reason, but i started gaining 2-ish stone a year and haven't stopped. I used to be horribly insecure and I'm not anymore but I'm scared I'm gonna die in my 20s, I;m morbidly obese, pre-diabetic and have high cholesterol and blood pressure. When I found out I was morbidly obese I wanted to change but I can't stop stuffing myself with junk food even though I know I'm killing myself. I don't know how to control myself. (Note: 20 st 5 is 285 lb.)

Ht. 5'2", Start: 130 lb, Today: 130 lb (BMI %tile: 88), Goal: 105 lb - Reply from Chloe, Age 13 - 08/05/17 - IP#: 217.67.50.xxx I'm 5 foot 2 and a fraction of an inch (don't know precisely) and weigh 126lbs approx, but think the scales might be wrong (I think I'm more) I feel exactly the same as you, I absolutely hate the way I look; I can't even look at myself in the mirror. I've already been through the puppy fat stage but have put on a stone in the last year :-( I'n so depressed about it and can't sleep at night.

Ht. 5'1", Start: 162 lb, Today: 209 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 135 lb - Okay listen I'm not the type to butter things up or anything I give tough love but not about this . In this generation your required to be a certain type of way or you won't receive any love and affection like for example you must have a big ass flat stomach boobs long hair etc. you see that's the problem we can't love ourselves these days I'm currently 209 pounds I was always chunky growing up but as I got to middle school my parents were worried that I was gonna get bullied so they put me in a gym I had to work out 6 days a week for atleast 4 hours I was put on a strict diet also a strict schedule I was only 12 . At first I was really upset because I cared about what other people thought of me but as I started losing weight I was feeling so good about myself I could finally wear crop tops shorts I was getting male attention it was nice but it never changed who ...

At first I was really upset because I cared about what other people thought of me but as I started losing weight I was feeling so good about myself I could finally wear crop tops shorts I was getting male attention it was nice but it never changed who I was . I am a VERY sensitive person I stress a lot to but when I stress I eat (stress eating) so as I grew older my body started getting thicker and thicker then my parents came in again when I started high school I was so insecure so depressed . But I suck it up and started to learn on how to love myself .honestly it was so hard I would cry at times and be so mad at my self for letting myself go and went on a eating spree I did so good with my body I was for once confident ! That was a big deal for me . I never knew how important it was to love myself currently I'm just starting my sophomore year I weigh atleast 209 pounds and I'm only 16. I love myself ! All the stretch marks the chubbyness and everything but remeber when I mentioned my parents pressuring me to always lose weight yeah that's happening again . I just wish they can accepts the fact that I love who I am there's nothing wrong with bieng extra squishy or having a little more curve then others . Listen lady's if you feel down all the time because you don't look the the girl who's dating the captain of the football team or if your insecure and depressed you need to stop You can either EMBRACE who you are or make a change it's up to you your beautiful either way . Wear that crop top you've been wanting to wear ! Show of your curves in that sexy swimsuit ! Go prove society wrong prove them that nobody can change who you are. I really hope what I just wrote makes some typa sense or changes the way u think things . Iknow it's hard to love yourself in a world that teaches you not to but you are worthy you are loved you are beautiful inside n out <3 (view less)

Ht. 5'2", Start: 9 st 4, Today: 9 st 4 (BMI %tile: 88), Goal: 7 st 11 - Please can someone be completely honest with me. I'm so insecure and I think I'm overweight. The BMI calculators all say I'm a little overweight but I think I'm more than just a little. I have no muscle on me. I barely exercise (an hour a week) but do more when I'm in school. I have 3 rolls of fat on my stomach. I'm a size 10 UK Women's size clothes and have big thighs and upper body. My stomach is definitely the worst though. I really need to speak to someone ( a doctor or something) about my weight but my mum just worries that I have an eating disorder when I mention to her that I might be overweight. With regards to genes, My mum and Nan are obese (my Nan is a size 22 and 5 foot and my mum a 16 and 5 foot 4) and my dad is underweight or on the lower scale of normal. I have already passed the stage where I put on a lot of weight, so this is not just... (view more)Please can someone be completely honest with me. I'm so insecure and I think I'm overweight.

I hate constantly having to suck in and can't get the thought of my weight out of my head; when I'm out shopping, doing PE or even at home in front of my mum and dad. Please help me, thank you.

Ht. 5'2", Start: 138 lb, Today: 139 lb (BMI %tile: 89), Goal: 125 lb - I know that my case isn't horrid, the bmi says that i'm overweight. I have tried to talk to my mother for help but she dismisses it as low self-esteem. And it angers me because she will help my younger brother and older sister get into work out routines and fix their diets, but when i plead for help she is either too drunk or just doesn't care. I had actually lost weight this past year, I used to be 145 lbs. and a little bit shorter. I got down to 132 and I had so much hope, but then it creeped up to 135, and then ballooned to 139. I have been beating myself up all day and have been trying to get it down, but my weight won't budge. I am back in the overweight zone and I want to cry. I have three siblings and a father who love sweets, so I cant ask my mom to stop buying them (she wouldn't do it even if i asked) and asking to put a lock on all junk foods would make my parents question me, then not allow me to fully explain myself because they jump to conclusions. What do I do?

Ht. 5'1", Start: 272 lb, Today: 272 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - I never step n a scale and the the weight number is never the same. I always more. My brother says he weighs 170' for 6 years. I always weigh more than I did before. What's wrong with me. I'm too fat and my belly is huge and bouncy. And bigger. In pe there is 3 of us too fat we just walk only around the tennis courts becaus my belly sticks out f my uniform when I play.

Ht. 5'1", Start: 95 lb, Today: 172 lb (BMI %tile: 97), Goal: 112 lb - I've always been a pretty chubby kid. When I went to middle school I lost a ton of weight due to being part of the "pro-ana" community on tumblr in 2013 and such. Recently I got diagnosed with Bipolar disorder and a few other things. The meds I got put on made me complete zombie and made me literally balloon up. I literally would just eat junk food and sleep for the entire day. I now yo-yo diet but I've been binging at night on fast food because I've been so down that I can't help it. I just want to get my weight together. I'm tired of doing nothing but sitting around and literally stuffing my face.
