I AM SOOO UPSET. my family(except my dad) are all losers!!! they suck. when i say that, i mean my brother and my mom. I can't believe this!. I am crying reight now. sry if i spell things wrong. I told my mom that i wasn't going to use the computer. my brother knows that i come down here to use the tv to do my exercising. so he said, "y, are u going down there to do ur exercises?" in a aweful way. then he said, "u don't want us to come down there, because u don't want us to see u jiggle." I started getting mad and i started telling him to shut the f up. he is like bragging b/c he is like super skinny(but ugly). then we get into a fight. i punch him, he punched me. blah, blah blah. My mom starts yelling at me and says that i should stop. she is threatning to tell my teacher that how bad I am at my conference. (i am not bad, my brother starts it) she sticks up for him. then she goes calling me a b**** and stuff. my mom is not like that at all. my brother is 16 and acting like an idiot! I get blamed for it. he calls me fat and i get blamed 4 it. I don't even feel like doing my wrk out!! I am sry that this has nothing to do with weightloss, but i wanted to ge tit out of me!!! thankz
Reply from janie, Age 15 - 04/13/05 - IP#: 64.136.49.xxx sounds like you have issues. and that you might be a bit too sensitive. maybe you should just not talk to your family when they act like that and none of the previous would happen. learn some self restraint. as for your exercising, good. take all your over-active and put them into your exercising. not only will your physical self be better but your mental should improve also.

Reply from Sophie, Age 14 - 04/08/05 - IP#: 195.92.67.xxx My family critisises and makes fun of my weight quite often too, and it turns into a fight because I feel so sensitive about it and they are SO INSENSITIVE and RUDE!!! So I know a little about how you feel. Rememeber your exercises are something you are doing for you, to improve yourself. Sounds like your brother isn't trying to improve himself and will always stay the way he is - an idiot! Be proud of what you are doing and if they are mean just think "I am doing this for me and if they don't understand that,that is their problem". Think of how good and confident you will feel when you reach your goal. Your brother might never know how that feels. You are doing really well!!!Maybe you should tell your mum how hurt and angry you are about how she handled the fight and the name she called you, and ask her to be more supportive in future (but wait until you feel less upset and then ask her clamly). She probably got angry cos of the shouting and hitting and swearing, and she lost control as well.Hope this helps
Reply from (a$$!3, Age 17 - 04/08/05 - IP#: 195.93.21.xxx I know how you feel, my (older) sister's been calling me fat for as long as I can remember. I tried everything to make her stop, I tried ignoring her (didn't work) I tried laughing along (really didn't work because then other people thought that it was ok and joined in) but now I just say "screw you" and walk off. If you let them know they've got to you, they'll know how to do it again. Turn your anger into determination, and change their insults into motivation. You CAN do this. And about your mom insulting you, that sucks, and it makes me mad when parents swear at their kids. My best friend's mum tells my best friend to F off all the time, and my best friend just swears right back. I'm not suggesting you do this, lol. It really hurts when they insult you, my Mom and Dad have both called me fat a couple of times before, and I just ran upstairs and cried my eyes out. Maybe your mom's stressed, you know, if she's never done this before. If your brother starts being an ass again try walking away and then you won't get in trouble. And if he keeps going, find a room with a lock on a door or go outside. I think I've written a bit too much, and I'm probably not making much sense anymore, so I'll leave it here. But come back and tell us about your problems. It helps to get them out on here, I know, I have. And I want to help everyone, we're all in this together.
