Ht. 5'5", Start: 155 lb, Today: 155 lb (BMI %tile: 90), Goal: 100 lb - I need help! I try to lose weight but I keep gaining it back. I eat exactly 1200 calories a day and exercise 2 hours a day, but it won't come off! I want cool clothes like my SKINNY friends. When I go in the store I see really cute clothes and try them on and there are too small! I'm size 10! One it was really cold outside and we had to go out for PE but I forgot my long pants and only had shorts my BFF offered to lend my hers but she is a size 0. I'm one of the fatest kids in my school and it is intimidating. All this weight is keeping my from being popular and it is ruining my life. I need help!!!!

Ht. 5'5", Start: 163 lb, Today: 157 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 114 lb - I just went to the doctor's office for my physicals and found out I lost 7 pounds in a few weeks. The only problem is that we don't have a scale at home and my parents don't want to get one. I swim laps everyday and I have vigorous life guard training 3 days a week. I really want to lose weight cause I'm tired of people's attitude towards my weight and I want to be able to find clothes that I like. I want to look good in a swimsuit and be healthier for sports. I'm going to be a freshman this year and I got braces a few months ago. I have to wear them 2 more years and my goal is to be my goal weight by the time I get them off. I want straight teeth AND healthy WEIGHT by my sweet 16 birthday,prom,wedding and LIFE. I eat healthy, control my portions, but still allow myself a little something sweet once a day.

Ht. 5'3", Start: 162 lb, Today: 157 lb (BMI %tile: 93), Goal: 118 lb - I looked at my clothes from last summer, I look at mysefl in the minour and say wow, you feel a lot better I do not want to go back to that path weighing 165 pounds.. I cant believe I worked so hard, to get to plain L clothing!! it is amzing to me, I do my hair, and nails, and lips when I am sad, or feeling down. The point is to keep going. I never gave up, I really want you teens to be encourged. We all have slip ups) If I make a mistake and say to myself that was not a good choice I made, I should have made a better chocie, you know what I move on. And there is a another day, and not repeat that mistake agian. And ever since then I make better choices. That a lesson we should all learn from.. You know , I manged to get out xxl clothing in womens, and Juniours!! I jsut wear L!!! I like being able to find clothes easier now!! It took me a few miutnes to find a swimsuiut!! I was like yes, and said I did it!! you teens have encourged me!!
Thanks girls with the advice.

Ht. 5'3", Start: 263 lb, Today: 217 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 200 lb - stop beating yourself up for the "bad" food choices you made its okayyy just learn from it and keep going ,,, when i make a bad eating choice after im done eating it i think of how my body feels and if it was really worth it eating it again , like mccdonalds for instance last time i ate it and went to the gym i felt HORRIBLE ! my heart was beating wayyyy to fast and my workout wasnt enjoyable =/ and eating something healthy gave me the exact opposite feeling i felt great and energized =D ,,, so my point is if you dont feel slumpy after eating it and if you didnt eat too much of it your fine stop worring so much :))

Ht. 5'7", Start: 215 lb, Today: 210 lb (BMI %tile: 98), Goal: 150 lb - Hi everyone. I have finally decided to loose some weight. I am obese. It feels so weird to type that. I am fat. I feel like we need to be able to accept that fact before we can work on actually loosing weight. I used to be so concerned if people could see how big I was. Who was I kidding? I am over 200 lbs. Obviously everyone can tell that I am fat. Who cares if you can tell I have a big belly. I am becoming more comfortable with my weight by admitting that I am obese and I need to do something about it. I need to stop eating so much and I need to stop sucking my stomach in all the time. I need to accept the body that I have and if I can't I should loose weight and not try to hide that with my clothes and my sucking my stomach in. I need to stop eating so much and snacking all the time and I really need to start exercising. I can bearly run because I am so big! I have already lost 5 pounds! If you have any suggestions for me let me know!

Ht. 5'4", Start: 190 lb, Today: 170.4 lb (BMI %tile: 94), Goal: 135 lb - So I'm kinda sorta gotten paranoid about getting enough calcium. I'm in the process of weining myself off of caffeine and all sodas in general and eating calcium dense dairy products and taking a vitamin D pill. I found this article about getting more calcium and thought it was very informative. I thought maybe somebody else might find it useful too. Have a good week everyone!

I know it is hard to tell if they want something} or not.. That sad ... I really want to cry.. Teens our age not talking very depressing.. I wish I could put a sad face...
