You know what if you try really hard to cut back on the candy and brush your teeth instead of eating candy it could help you cut back on your candy which will help you lose weight.Drink lots of water. I know you probably dont like water I never did when I was younger but it does help. You are nine and if you start losing now you will be thin by the time you are a teen(probably before)Work everyday on losing weight!! You will start seeing results!!

i have the same problem, but the best thing to do is write down how you are feeling in a journal. whenever you get a cravig write it down. you will soon realize when you feel hunger and be able to control those urges..it feels so good to resist the sweets you crave. If you must give in to your cravings eat healthy!!
