This is not about me. I am overweight too, but one of my friends, Shane, is overweight. He is 160 lbs, but he seems to be proud that he is overwieght. He will shake his stomach around and jiggle it, and show off that he is overwieght. He once scoffed down a whole cake, 3 pizza's, and 5 shakes, when we were hanging out. It kind of imbarresses me when he shows of his large stomach. He has been put on a diet many times, but when at lunch, he gets everyones left over's, which is like 6 sanwiches. He eats them all! It just discourages me when he shows off by pulling his stomach out and showing it to everyone. I am sorry if I offended anyone who reads this, but I needed to let out my feelings about Shane.

Leave him alone. His parents know. And they can deal with it. It`s none of your business. Tori

It's good you didn't say anything rude to your friend Shane. That would really hurt him. Try and do some physical activities when you two hang out. And at lunch ask your other friends if you can throw their "trash" or leftovers for them. As for your friend showing off his weight, tell him that your a bit embarassed by him showing off his body. Just don't show off your body either because that would be very hipocritical. Need any more advice or if Shane does, write to me at Roo5spoons@aol.com
