I am homeschooled, and you have to have alot of willpower because you are around tempting foods 24\7. At school, there is school lunch but other than that you can't eat whatever you want there. That's my opinion.
Reply from Priscilla, Age 15 - 09/20/04 - IP#: 24.254.92.xxx I am homeschooling 9th grade this year! I am working on getting a six pack, and just losing body fat, and getting very, lean! If you stay home make sure you work out, and have 5 to six mini meals! Chew sugar free gum if you feel like eating when you are not hungry! Try not to eat after 7, or 8! I do know how you feel though! You might want to look into taking 2 electives, or something at the school, most schools are very willing to let homeschoolers take a few electives. I am taking spanish 1, and drama, at public school, and I homeschool my core subjects! Some even offer sports! So that would help with working out! Hope this helps, you can E-mail me at kellyGurl3432@hotmail.com or IM at kellyGurl3432 for help, or support! God Bless, Priscilla
Reply from chelsea, Age 15 - 09/20/04 - IP#: 64.12.116.xxx Hey krissy. I'm glad you posted this. I am going to give you some very very important advice! I got homeschooled for most of last year and I should have just kept going to school. I stayed home because I felt fat around other people at school and I thought I'd be able to lose weight while out of school by dieting and walking and stuff. Let me just say that It didn't work and I gained a lot...a lot of weight! Now that I'm back in school and not focusing on it so much I'm a healthy weight. Don't get homeschooled just go to school, consentrate on your work and friends and other stuff and don't be so hard on yourself..that only results in weight gain. Good luck and please at least consider what I'm saying.
