Ht. 5'5, Wt. too much - I don't hate my body anymore. I'm basically at the point where I am accepting that I eat healthy and exercise daily and that I cant really do much more to drop the weight. Now that I am an upperclassmen and in all advanced classes I don't really have any jerks with me. I am with all my friends and I have respect from my teachers. Plus I am not wearing my sweatshirts all the time anymore, which makes me feel prettier. Its all just getting better.

Good for you... it took me a while to except my body. Even after I lost the weight It wasn't still enough for me. I call in the Somers Inbreeding where eveyone in my town in petite. Even the guys. In fact at 5'7 I'm one of the tallese people in the grade. I think the people in Somers stay in somers and make babies with each other and they're all petite. But then I realized that even though these girls can eat whatever they want and not gain weight, they're small and frankly I'm pretty sure I could snap them in half and I don't think that's a good thing. I just hope that even though you've accepted your body you still continue to eat healthy and exercise. It's important to stay healthy not just for vanity issues.
