From Chelsea, Age 13

hi, my name is chelsea and I want to lose weight so bad. I am 13, I'm 5'2, I weigh about 132-130, and I am fairly matuer for my age. I cry a lot about my weight. My Stomach is like a pot belly... my whole body isnt fat... just my stomach... now my theighs are getting large too. I feel that I have to cover up with my stomach certain clothes, becuase people make fun of me, and I cry about my body all the time. It's really hard for me to leave the house if I think a shirt shows my fat. I just want to be skinny like everyone I know. My friends tell me I'm not fat... but they sometimes admitt that they are just trying to make me feel better. My mother is always trying to help me to loose weight... but nothing works because I am very picky about food becuase I dont like vegatables. My mother says that I'm overweight, and I cry everytime she tells me. I don't want to offend anyone, if you think I don't need to lose weight, but there are only 2 other kids that are heavier than me, in my grade, so I get targeted, for people to make fun of me. I have really bad cravings for my favorite foods, french fries, everyday, andd I cant controll it! I checked the Weight Calculator, and It said that I am over-weight. I don't know what to do, nothing works for me. I exercise everyday, but it barely helps.I only weighed 100 lbs. 2 years ago. Please Help Me! ANY SUGGESTIONS WOULD BE VERY APPRICIATED!! thank you for taking the time to read this, good luck to every one on this Bulletin board!
