I'd be fine with it if it weren't for this one problem. I wear a unifrom! Ok... so I know your thinking whats the big deal? The deal is that everyone is wearing the same thing and it looks better on everyone than on me! I mean you see these thin fit girls standing next to me looking amazng and wearing the same thing as me! IT makes me look worse! I really want to loose some wait about 40 lbs. My parents won't let me start any sports right now and volleyball doesn't start til september. I need some things to do outside that are really helpful! I dpn't want to walk or run... thats really boring. Anything fun?!
Reply from Jenna, Age 16 - 08/13/09 - IP#: 86.7.143.xxx I used to feel like that when I was in school, our uniforms were all the same, but I always looked worse :( I'm so glad that part's over with for me lol! Do you get any choices in your school? I found that pleated skirts were more flattering for me than the straight ones, and you could always try and get a really well fitting pair of trousers, that may make you feel a little better. Also, walking might not be too boring if you take an iPod and try and find somewhere kinda pretty to walk. Skipping? Hula Hoop? Maybe try and get a basketball net put up? Good luck!
