You can still be in any sport you want if you're overweight...As long as you don't fail the exam. You have to walk in kinda odd ways, test your reflexs, coordination, and sometimes they do breathing tests and make you run in place, to check for athsma. It takes about 20 minuets, but I'm 191 lbs. and I did fine. Don't worry about it...It's not hard. Have fun in tennis

Make a limit, like 2 pieces a day..... and if that is hard ask your mom or dad to hide it, and get out 2 pieces every morning for you. You also could donate it to a food bank if you dont want any of it.

Walking slow or fast for x amount of distnace has no impact on how many calories your burn. However, when x is amount of time, it does have an impact. Whether you walk slow or fast for a mile, you still burn the same amount of calories, except by moving faster you get them burned faster!
