hey there tabby! i am not over weight im around 4'11 maybe 5 foot and i weight 102 when i was younger like 11 i was a little over weight. I wanted to be able to wear a bikini and cute mini skirts like everyone else so i know how u feel. when it got to be the summer of 5th grade i knew i had to do something bout this so i decided to go on the web and find some advice. I learned that if u cut your meal in half and not eat as much then ur stomach shrinks so u wont be as hungry ~ seems hard but after ur done eating if u go and do something then u wont have the feeling that u NEED to eat! It really did work for me! i really do hope that u find a way to feel good about ur self and i want to help! much luv! x0x0 maggie!

Help People!I am 11 years old and I am 20 pounds overweight! I have gone to a swim team for two months now and I haven't lost anything!!! And my mom seems to keep bakeing cookies and whenever I see them I take two or three of them! My friends keep elling me that I'm not overweight, but that is what's scaring me.Help me!,Jocelyn

Okay it sounds like you are doing good on the exercise thing because you joined a swim team but you need to change you eating habits. It is all about self-control only have 1 cookie. Just eat what you want just have smaller portions.And limit yourself on the sugar! If you say I can't do it then to bad because you can! And drink 5 cups or more water a day. I hope this helps and I know this will help you swim faster too.

Hey! I was doing so well, I have lost 15 pounds, and am feeling and looking better. I used to eat after school and in between meals all the time but before I lost weight I stopped that but the other day I had a craving and listened to it and now I have started doing it again. How can I stop???? Also what are some good food to have for lunch????? I make my own lunch and I usually have a sandwish, pizza, or salad and would like some other choices. Oh, and if you start to drink a lot of water keep drinking milk to because milk is really good for you. Well thanks for the help.

All u have 2 do is remember a few things. Portion sizing. If your having a sandwich and chips just remember that a handful of chips and have a sanwich is all u need. U look like u have been going good about drinkin lots of water. But instead of just working your muscles like u were try doing some aerobic activity like taking a walk (or jogging really slow) or u can grab that old Richard Simmons tape. :) BYE!!!!! (P.S. if u wanna chat more u can IM me at heyyy2u or E-mail me at heyy2u@hotmail.com. PEACE!!!!!!!!!

Hey sup dude? Well, I used to weigh 245 but now i weigh about 205.I lost this in about 6 weeks. I still am overweight and i want to get down to 175. Start exercising everyday at the gym or at home. Eat stuff like grilled chicken and salads. Eat vegetables and fruit. Don't eat more after your full. I don't eat until im full and i dont get hungry. Your mind takes 20 minutes to tell your stomach that your full so just eat what you think would be appropriate. Try this...It worked and still is working great for me.

I weigh 126 lbs and I have lost about 5 lbs so far by shorting my portions.Don't let anyone say,your not special! Your more than what you weigh! But,anyway find something fun that you like to do that as a lot of things to do with excersise. But, make it for at least 15-20 minutes a day. Well, I do 300 jumps on my trampoline. Sometimes I even talk on the phone as I jump. It helps me be kinda be distracted from how tired I'm getting. But, if your at a party or something eat what there eating. Thats my advice.By!
