all girls who are trying to lose weight it is not even worth it because you are beautiful for who you are. dont worry about what other people think about you, just follow your dreams and if this is how god wants you to be then be happy for what you are and cross out everything in your mind that people say about you
Reply from jenn TO ASHLEY!!!, Age 12 - 03/04/05 - IP#: 69.177.171.xxx i AGREE WITH U ASHLEY!!!!!!! OMG, i know, i am doin it for myself to be healthy. I also wanna this boy to ask me out, but i am not doin this weight loss 4 him, because i think he already likes me. so he likes me 4 what i am, i am happy. the weightloss is an extra 4 me. i am totally doin it 4 MY HEALTH. i don't wanna die soon because i am obese (btw-i weigh 200lbs, 5'3)
Reply from ashley!, Age 15 - 03/04/05 - IP#: 206.222.221.xxx lots of people on this site arent doing for anybody, but themselves! WE want to lose weight. I know for me, I dont care about what other people think about me, those are just highschool years. It is over in 3 years for me and I want to have a healthy life for when I have kids and a career and husband. I dont want to be overweight. I also want to live a long life.not die when Im 60 from heart failure. And Im sure many others feel my same way.
Reply from kels, Age 16 - 03/04/05 - IP#: 63.77.244.xxx i really disagree w/ u, because some off the girls on this site are so obese that they are unhealthy, and those that arent want better, healthier bodies. sites like these are helping to fight americas obesity epidemic, which is a growing concern. a teacher thold me the other day that although my generation (im a high school jr.)will be one of the longest living generations, that the obesity trend is dramatically shortening lifespans, and that the kindergarteners at my school willlive a much shorter life if current trends become longterm life styles. Its ok if you dont agree, theres a lot to be said for loving yourself and your body, if fact an important step to weight loss is to accept who you are before you can make steps to change that person. but, this site IS for weight loss motivation, so if you disagree w/ it, please find a different message board to post on pleasse
Reply from Stephanie, Age 15 - 03/03/05 - IP#: 4.236.201.xxx Your message is very nice but i disagree. this isn't what god wants me to be. This is what i chose to be. If i really wanted to be fit and healthy i will go for it and don't give up on tntill i get it. But really i don't , I'm just not ready. I admit i am afraid of people's reaction and LOVE.. bleh! he he. And i just don't really put my self to do it. I know i am beutiful and god created me but he didn't create me fat. I became fat because of my actions and situatons in my life.
