I think all overweight kids should not worry but make a commitment and say do I want to be big or do I wanna be normal sized. That's what I did. I was 275 pounds now I am 115 pounds. I went to a preteen overweight camp for 2 months. I worked out and dropped 50 pounds by the time I went home. I still maintain a healthy diet. Don't stop eating all together, three meals a day and a snack after school.I feel more confident, healthier and better than ever. Don't let words hurt you. Remember it is not all about being beautiful it is being healthy that will count in the long run. Girls that have child obesity are more prone to develope breast cancer and all have a greater risk of diabetes. So eat healthy maintain a good lifestyle and be who you are. If you eat because you are depressed you might want to see a phycologist. I don't mean that you might be crazy but you might be sad. If you don't want to go you can try forms of medetation like yoga. Be cool and be who you are .You can do it!
