sometimes what u think is teasing, is just playin. maybe talk to your step dad about it. and if your real dad hasn't talk to u for 3 months doesn't mean he doesn't care. he must be really busy. like my dad, he lives in texas and can't always talk to me every day.sometimes not even for 3 months. but i don't let it get to me thinking he hates me, he has a big job(you know the colafornia brown outs? well he has somthing to do with that) so he is probally busy. somtimes i call him. maybe u should do that too instead of just wait for him to call u. try not to take it personally.

You most certanly help! Just tell an adult you trust like your mom,dad,teacher or doctor. You should tell someone!

ya there is hope, but u have to be firm with your parents about them feeding u. just say that u can feed your slef and that u r trying to lose weight because u r over weight (i think).just tell them somthing like that. they will stop.

Well, I think that the best way to over come your weight problem is to start a good diet and start excersising!!!! I looked up to my brother. I would always cry because I thought I was to fat but he told me to start running. I did that and now I love to run and I can't wait to be in P.E. everyday!!!! Also you should start a calorie chart. and try to stay under 1500 calories a day. It has helped for me and it will help for you!!!!!!
