Truefully does anybody have weight issues???

[BabyPiglet]

First of all I AM ON jENNY'S, Babypiglet, computer right now so this shows up under her name, I was to lazy to change it....


Thanks,
I went walking again today but just like 2 times around my street. I don't think I look that fat but the scale does not agree with me and ya'll are right it could be worse and I should stop complaining, maybe I am not trrying to get thinner for me maybe it is for other people, I also think I have gained some weight this summer just sitting at home, you know. All my family is also not the skinniest none of my family is real thin... I am going leave my mom out of it and go jogging as much as I CAN until school starts. I will try to fit a little jogging in now and then after school ( my junior high is also big 3 floors with classes on everyone and then I have free period that I CAN GO OUTSIDE AND PLAY BASKETBALL or something ).....

Again I WEIGH like 140 and am 5'3'
I don't look as fat as the scale sounds though....

Thanks again for all the tips and you al have really boosted my confidence, BYE BYE

oh my ..i feel like a hippo. i am 240, 5'8", wear a shoe 10 1/2, and my ****s are freaking d's. ok i would like to loose some wieght but sadly i am a lazy cow. i really don't care if kids make fun of me because i am fat, i use to but why should i be more depressed than i am about that. I just want to be myself! One day i will loose the weight but right know school is the most important to me. I want to get into vet school. How am i going to do that with my problems being fat, having depression , and so on on my back to worry about.

the strange thing is that i know a girl who wants to be fat, i don't know why but she does. she eat every thing that is in front of her, but no poundage is added to her.

I'm not saying I'm overweight but I play sports and i do alot of dancing and basketball and volleyball. But I dont know really how to eat healthier than i do because I dont eat much. I mostly eat junk. It makes me mad I wish I liked more food!!

 

[Arielfn93]

I eat junk food a lot, but I have my healthy food each day, and I work out each day, or try sometimes when I cant swim

I have the same problem. I don't eat a whole lot, but a lot of what I do eat is junk food. I need to start eating more healthy foods.

Well, I'm not going to say my size, but I'll just say I'm bigger than most of ya''ll. It's not that I'm not active or anything, I work out, I dance, I swim, and I play basketball sometimes. I was doing really good on my diet last year. I had lost about...15 lbs....I think. Well, at the beggining of August, I broke my foot. I was on crutches for like..3 months. I couldn't do anything! I wasn't even supposed to put my foot on the ground. I gained my weight back because of all the inactivity; I did however gain alot of muscle in my arms from using my crutches. Sorry, lol, that was a bit off topic! Well, that's been a year ago and I'm proud to say I'm losing weight again. So far I've lost like 8 lbs, I think?

Oh yeah, my shoe size is 8 1/2, and I am 5'6"; .

waahh youre taller than me by an inch! *pout*

 

[themelbob1190]

I'm almost 15, 5'5, and I weigh 135. Technically, I'm overweight for my age, but I don't look like I am. Don't go and diet because the numbers say you're overweight. Judge by what you look like. Muscle weighs more than fat.

 

[StitchGirl88]

I am 16 going to be 17 in Nov. and I am diabetic so I have to be on a diet because I am over weight some people lose weight when diagnosed(sp?) with diabetes but no I had to gain weight I was like 205 lbs. at 1 point in time right now I have lost 23lbs and I am now 182lbs. I still need to lose alot more weight. I was a size 22 at one point in time and I am now 12,13, 14, sometimes 15 depends on who makes the clothing. I wear a 10-11 shoe size and I am 5'2". I am short pants lengths that are long, reg, or short and I have to get the short and even those are kind've long.

 

[polysisterchick]

i am 5'3", 120, and happy with my weight.i honestly don't care wut other ppl say about me and if i look fat, I feel comfortable with who i am, the only thing i do wish is that i would eat more healthy food. and for those of you who are on diets- keep it up and reach your goals cuz i know you can do it.. and for those of you who think that you are fat and are really normal - you are beautiful they way you are and if any 1 tells you otherwise, screw them.

 

[ihaveeeyorestail]

MY friend went on a diet and she lost 5 pounds in 2 weeks by bringing healthy lunches to school instead of ordering the grease food from the caf) My other friend cut down to 1 sweet treat a day she never cheated she eats her regular meal everyday. she been on this for about two weeks and lost 2 1/2 pounds. my two friends and i play lacrosse that helps them too cause we have to run non stop. Goodluck

I am not overweight, i am probibly average, to underweight, but im still consious about my weight, till i decided to stop checking it! After that i became a lot more confident. Being classed 'skinny' isnt nice ether, im teased because i have small b**bs. I also get teased cause my ribs stick out (not due to lack of eatting, natural problem). I eat enough, and a lot of junk, but i cant gain much weight, and i used to get really hung up on how i look. I still do, but being thin is not nessisarly fun, they pick on me as a person, and about other features of me or my personality instead, which hurts just as bad. I also have to put up with a lot caus ei go to an all girls school, a lot of nasty silly girls who need a good kick! soz for the moan, but size isnt everything!

 

[HilaryDuff9008]

ive become immune to it now. when people "pick" at me or say rude things and my friends get all flustered about me not deffending myself, the truth is i cant and i dont care to. ive heard it, and no matter if i have improved, i still allow them to call me names. *shrug* unhealthy? yes. worth my time? no.

 

[Princess Ash]

I am 16, almost 17...5'3"...98-102lbs...
I want to model as a career...so I try to watch my weight. I love food tho, so it's hard...

Good luck to everyone with what you're trying to do! If you work at it, I know you can do it!
And good for everyone who feels comfortable with themselves! That's the most important thing!

I love you guys

I'm 11 and 75 pounds. Wish I could look skinnier!!! One of my friends calls me anerxic(spelling?) HA! Most of my friends look the same (weight wise) and weigh the same. Some of my friends weigh more than my teacher! Most of my family is skinny. The whole thing about muscles weighing more than fat is true because my 17 year old brother is 230 pounds but thin. He is VERY strong. I am tring to get more active and eat heathier but don't like much food. I barley eat and when I don't I get in trouble.

I am overweight, but not nearly as much as I used to be. I have depression issues, and I am on medication for it...so, naturally, one of the side-affects of the medication is weight gain. Before all of the pills, I was always really skinny, but about 3 months after being medicated, I was 5'0" and weighed about 190 pounds. It terrified me, since I had always been so petite before and I was always really upset about it. Everytime I had to go shopping for clothes, I would end up crying hysterically in the back of a dressing room, because of the fact that nothing fit me. School was a different story entirely. I would always have people teasing me about the weight I had gained, and the taunting got so violent, that I had a lunch room full of high school kids stand up in their chairs and call me vulgar names while I was having to walk to my next class. About a year later, I decided to do something about it than just sitting around and crying. So I made a promise to myself that I would cut back on my daily intake of food, give up all chocolate and candy, and try to talk a walk around my block atleast once a day. Now I am happy to say that I am still 5'0", but I weight about 155 pounds. It didn't take me all that long to lose the weight, and my confidence and self-esteem has improved 100%. I am still a bit overweight, but I look at it as something that I can take care of in due time.

Yeah...It was hard at first, but every now and then, I would award myself with a small candy bar or a small piece of chocolate...That kept me determined to keep on going with my diet.

Aw, my gosh Kim . . . I'm sorry you went through that People can be so cruel sometimes; you just wonder what goes on inside those twisted little heads of their's, ya know? But that is great that you didn't let the teasing prevent you from getting out and deciding to change some things. A lot of people would just turn to more chocolate . . . it's a weakness almost every girl shares I think . 155 from 190?? That's a big difference!! You should definately be feeling better about yourself! You deserve it!
