Hi guys, I am 5'3 and get this, I weigh 210 pounds. when I was about 11 I was really skinny but then my dad died and I ate loads coz I was depressed. If i've had a bad day at school I come home and eat whatever there is. My mom is overweight too so she always has loads of junk which I just can't resist. Whenever my gran sees me she says "My haven't you put on weight, Bekki. You are starting to look like you mom!" There was this boy I really liked and I tried to ask him out but he just said "Date someone your own size, Bekki!" I can't fit into any of my clothes and I don't do sports any more, because its sooooo embarrasing when my fat wobbles all over the place. I have to get my school uniform specially made!!! Has anyone got any ideas? I just think its impossible for someone as fat as me to lose weight and ever look nice again

i so know what you mean, i'm 14 and i weigh 182 pounds, i'm in the uk and it took me ages to work out what 14 stone was in pounds. Theres this boy in my school who i fancy, and i've fancied him for 3 years, nearly 4. I wouldn't ever dare to ask him out because he would just laugh in my face, he is such a babe, and he is always going on about how lush sarah michelle gellar, and britney spears, and it just makes me feel awful. if you want to, you could e-mail me, and we could hep eachother, i know we can't do much, but we can try, my e-mail is mad_about_buffy2001@yahoo.co.uk

Hi,
Hi my name is Laure & I am 15. I know what everyone is going through on this site because I am overweight too. I weigh 200 lbs and I am 5'3''. I lost my father too and I have been up & down the scale. My doctor think that due to depression I have developed an eating disorder. I eat too much or to little at times or don't eat any meat. I want you to know that this site is good for the information on it. My advice to eveyone is to just get more active. Even if you don't know how to dance create your own dance or get with some of your friends & play a game. I think even if you are 17 tags is still a cool game to play. I hope this has been helpful.
Bye
