I know what you mean when you say that no one's ever said your fat, but your just so sick of being chunky and you want to be pretty, thin and hot. It's the same for me too. Good luck to you!
Reply from anne, Age 17 - 11/20/04 - IP#: 66.220.240.xxx try south beach diet. i've been on it and so far so great. you should lose 7-13lbs the first two weeks. that'll make a difference. it's also easier then atkins because you can eat a bit more carbs. veggies are unlimited and you can eat tomatoes and such things like that. the book is very very helpful and the paperback is only about 7 dollars...good luck either way though!
