Don't worry, at one time I weighed around 135 and in just around a week I went down to 125. Since then,I now weigh 120. Just eat the right foods. When you are full don't keep eating and be happy. I no a kid at mi skool who wieghs 267. JUST BE HAPPY!!!

If someone picks on you, find one of their weaknesses and hold it against them until they stop. Just don't do it around teachers or anyone who can get you in trouble. DO NOT TRY TO COMMIT SUICIDE! Try to see a phsyciatrist or talk to your school counselor or a friend or a parent if you still are considering it. They'll help you lose weight and feel great about yourself. You can do it! GOOD LUCK!

Suicide isn't the answer...get yourself help if you have similar feelings ever again. Tell an adult. Or, call 1-800-suicide. It's a free helpline. As far as weight loss goes: eat 1200 calories a day, exercise for an hour 4 times a week. Have faith! You might want to ask your parents for help too. Good luck! *Ray*Ray*
