I'm overweight, 300 pounds, and I'm 6ft 4 inches tall. I'm bigger than everybody in class, including the teachers, priciple, everybody! I get teased alot, and would like to lose 80 to 100 pounds. Even my older sisters friends who are like 23,24, 25 years old come over to the house, and they act scared of me, cuz they are so small, and they are like....Oh my god....please don't crush me. I dont think I over eat, so i don't know why I'm so overweit. Help!

Reply from henry, Age 14 - 12/10/03 - IP#: 67.75.238.xxx hey trev... anne 16 has been really helping ppl here but shes not coming here no more so guess i will try(but i cant help no wehre as good as anne),. anyways, heres wat u gotta do trevor. . i was like 190lbs when i first came here(im short 5ft 3in) , im 163 lbs now)... u gotta realize that u r hooked on food... u eat when u not really hungry but cuz food makes u feel happier an u dont stop til u r like stuffed which is unomfortable so u stop then... so to lose weight u gotta like substitute other things to make u happy, like walkin w/ ur dog, do a hobby(i build computers from old parts), roller bladin, dancing(i take swing lessons at ymca), helpin ppl(i volunteer takin meals to old ppl on saturdays - they really apreciate it), sports(yah i know thats hard but when u get lighter)... an u can eat like sugar-free fat-free stuff... ask ur rents to buy fruit for snacks(apples, pears, grapes,nectarines)... and cut whatever u eat in half and save half for later (like half a pizza)... if u get like a cravin chew trident bubble gum or suck on a lolly... or go out back an shoot hoops... read the stuff in school thing here - its good. . anyways u gotta decide to be healthy or stay hooked on food and get diseases like diabetis and heart disease and be sick an die young... my tips r not near as good as tips from anne (sadly) but hope this helps.... come to new chat room to. . ... later mate..
