If the people in your family are making fun of you. I think that you should ask them to stop. And GOOD LUCK!!!!

Don't listen to him a lot of people will say a lot of mean things but it's not always your fault they probally don't have anything else better to do so they think they can just pick on people but they can't plus if it's your brother tell him how it hurts your feelings.

Hi. I am writing about my 11-year-old son. We will call him "Alex." I'm hoping maybe you guys can help me. I need to get through to Alex about losing weight. He cries all the time because the other kids make fun of him. He wants to lose weight, but can't resist snacking. And I know I'm at fault: I work at night and can't be with him at school, so he eats all the time and I'm not there to check the situation. NOW... I don't want to NAG him. (My mom used to nag me about practicing piano, so I quit, and now I'm sorry.) What could I say that will motivate him? What could someone say to you that would help you? I love him so much and don't want to make him feel bad, but he feels bad enough already. Alex is a great kid. He's a good student. He's just so unhappy. Thanks everyone! I appreciate your input!

The best thing i think to do is to exercise with him or play some games to make it fun. And when you guyse eat, just have him eat half of what he'd normally eat.

Yeah I know you don't want to deprive your other kids but don't let them have anything special in front of him and not let him eat it becuase that will make him feel bad too. *rach*

My daughter is obese. I'm considering telling her I want to send her to a boarding school that specializes in "healthy living" -- teaching her the habits she'll need to be healthy (and lose weight). Before I do, I'd like your opinion: How would you react? Would you want to go to a school like this?

I'm not really that overweight, but I don't think I'd like it very much if my parents sent me there, but if I was obese, I don't think I'd be upset if they asked me if I'd like to go. You should ask your daughter if she would want to go, explain why you want her to go and that it would be good for her health, and then see if she is willing to go.

My name's Beanie... and I'm overweight in the worst way! I'm five feet three inches tall and I weigh 210 pounds! I really know I need to lose weight. I think my weight influences the amount of people who want to be my friend. I only have two friends in the entire world! It is hard to lose weight since I can't be active 'cause my mother never lets me get out of the house! She only buys sweets and sodas all of the time because that's all her boyfriend will ever eat! I went to the doctors and the doctor would lecture me for about an hour about how serious I need to be with this. I am serious but I guess my mother isn't! Is there anyway I can do this under such strict conditions?

What kinds of foods do you tend to eat reguarly?Does your family eat out a lot? Talk to your parents about your weight.Explain to them how unhappy you are and then figure out a diet plan that's right for YOU.Not everyone can lose weight by going on atkins or weight watchers.E-mail me to chat:sweet_stephanie_13@hotmail.com

Hey! What you can do is tell your mom, dad, or gardian to buy healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables instead of those junky foods. Also try to do healthy things like ride a bike every day, do sports, dance, or jog outside. Try to eat half of what u usually eat every day and save it for later. Let me know how everything turns out

I am the same height as you, and I used to weigh the same. So far, I've lost 7 pounds in 1 1/2 weeks. You can do it! Drink a lot of water! If you find yourself snacking on unhealthy foods, like I did, try to find a healthy food to snack on. I would talk to your parents too. They can be a big help! My mom hasn't bought any cookies/chips for over a month now, so when I go into the cupboards, there is nothing "good" to eat, except for fruits and veggies. Good luck!
