Ht. 5'2, Wt. 122 - My best friend is constantly talking about how over weight she is and how self conscious she feels. And the other day she showed me this web site like it was a place she belonged dont get me wrong or anything i mean a teen website is a good place but i just wish she would be more confident about the person she is i mean shes sooo popular and everyone loves her i just wish that she and other people wouldnt dwell so much on outter beauty i mean its fun to look good and feel good but i think you should make your top priority feeling good about yourself no matter if you are 90 or 300lbs it doesnt matter and really only inner beauty counts

I know what you mean but shes only upset because shes slightly overweight I can see where shes coming from. And I know inner beauty is good aswell but it can be the little comments that hurt. Like you never notice but these tiny comments add up and it hurts so much. I think she just has really low self esteem cos of that. But your a great friend for talking bout inner beauty :)

hi i talked to you in the chat.
but...being overweight is not good for your health. and for some people, they can only be happy when they are healthy.
