From Savannah, Age 12

Ht. 5'2", Start: 165 lb, Today: 161.5 lb, Goal: 100 lb - I come from a pretty... large family. My mother has to weigh over 250 lbs and my dad probably weighs in closer to 300. I try to eat somewhat healthy. For example, my typical diet includes a drink with nothing but fruit and vegetable juices and vitamins for breakfast, for lunch I have half of a salad [my school has somewhat large salad portions] and a few saltine crackers, and for dinner I have a serving of meat, 1 to 2 servings of vegetables, and a starch or two. My snacks usually include spinach and/ or carrots and a little ranch dressing. I don't usually exercise on a regular basis, except for my walk home from my bus stop, which goes down 3 streets. I can't fit into normal clothes because most of my body fat is in my stomach. It's HUGE. Normal clothes don't fit me because of my weight, so I can't shop at normal stores that teens and preteens do like Aeropostal or American Eagle. I have to shop at Ross and Walmart and Target for my clothes because of the shape of my body so I get teased because of the clothes I wear. Can someone please help me?
