I weigh 120 lbs and I'm 5'3. My twin sister is 100 and the same height! I'm really fat and right now I'm eating.... This is awkward... I came from 124 - 120 but I gave up and ate more and stopped exercising. Help..?

Hi, i'm 12 years old too(just turned 12 yesterday :)) And, I know you may think this is nothing compared what you or others may be going through, but i'm 129.5 pounds and i'm overweight. I'm starting these excercising classses, and they've REALLY made a difference. If you are strugguling, ask your parents to try some, and if not, ride to school on your bike or walk.:-)

I feel your pain, I'm 12 and 113 pounds everyone else at my school weighs like 85, but i started walking every morning and i feel great about my self. so you could start walking then running once you feel more conformable. :-D

 

I am 12 years old and 5'3..I weigh about 133 pounds and my waist size is about 32 inches..My mom says I'm overweight but I have no idea if I really am..

Gods, this reminds me of myself. I'm 12, I weigh 130 lbs, and I am trying really hard to lose weight. When I was younger, I ate like a PIG, and I regret it deeply now. I was pretty much stuffing food down my throat 24/7. I hated exercise, fruits, and vegetables, and pretty much anything that was good for me. Only a couple of months ago, I realized how much damage I was doing for my body and decided to do something about it. I still hate exercising and have a lot of trouble getting myself of my chair, but I have improved my diet by at least 90% and hope to get to 110 pounds in a month or two. I just need a LOT of motivation to exercise  but I'm planning to start using the stairs every morning and afternoon instead of taking the elevator. Also, I'm getting a cat, and I found that if you play a lot with your cat and chase each other around it's a really good way to exercise and have fun while doing so. I hope that this helped anyone out there.

I need bad help to lose weight i'm 12 yrs old and weigh 174lbs i am currently 5'5 i dont mind going on a diet but going on a scale really discourages me so i want to loose weight so i dont get bullied and so i can have a better self esteem.

Hello my name is Kailey, I weigh 135 pounds. I feel bad for all of you. I feel selfish to because I feel bad about my self. Well I heard this off the internet, there was A 15 year old boy he weighed 200 pounds. He gave some tips on loosing weight. He said that he tryed different methods, at first he just stopped eating second plates when it was time to eat, he said this was hard at first but over a couple days he got used to it, he lost 20 pounds over a couple months. He also did more excercise, a pound is 3500 calories so you would probly want to burn that much in a couple days or so. Any ways he lost about another 20 pounds I think. But the key to loosing weight is to burn more calories then you gain. I know from expierience that telling people you want to loose weight can be a little scary, or asking ur mom if she can cook healthier foods can be weird. Well for me at least maybe not for every one. But just beleive in your self, dont give up, think positive. Its scientifically proven that if you think negativly all the time you will have a less chance of loosing weight, it effects you some how. I know excercising can get boring, so you can run on a tredmeal in front of a TV (if you have a tredmeal). You can listen to music while excercising. Running in front of people can be embarrassing if ur over weight. Just ignore other people or youu can run around in your house or back yard. you can use websites to track your calories. There is one called sparkpeople, you record the food you eat and your excercise. I lost a couple pounds over a month, about 5. Some people lost 50 to 100 pounds from this website. They key to loosing weight is to burn more calories then you gain. Just beleive in your self. it is possible that some of you guyses ancestors wer starved for long periods of time, you see ther bodys wer forced to hold fat like people from the holocost or people that wer slaves. So ther kids got these genetics and then they wer over weight then ther kidses kids had these genetics and they wer over weight to and so on. So that could be going on with some of you guys. Hope this helped

Hi LOVEHANDLES,

I feel for you. There is so much pressure in our society to look a certain way and fit into a certain weight category. The first thing you have to do is recognise that this pressure comes from people and industries that make money off us feeling insecure about the way we look. The second thing is to acknowledge that 95% of people who try to lose weight do not succeed - studies show that there is no scientifically proven way to lose weight.

My suggestion is that you forget about the weight and focus on health. Always keep in mind that weight and health are NOT the same thing. People come in all shapes and sizes. Being big may not be 'attractive' according to the media that makes money off our insecurities, but making your body smaller is not the solution - the solution is to change our perspective. I recommend googling DancesWithFat or Ragen Chastain - she blogs about size acceptance, Health At Every Size and being a fathlete. (Also, have you see that awesome image of Olympic athletes and all their different body shapes? It's awesome - these are all people in peak physical condition!)

Studies show that no matter what their size, people who worry about weight are less healthy than those who don't worry about it. It's a big call, but accepting your body for the awesomeness that it is is the first step to becoming the healthiest person you can be.

I'm 12 years old I don't know how much I way.. I think about 150.. And I'm fat! I look at my pics when I was 9 and skinny and I pray and cry to God to please change me to that chase I keep trying and trying and the losing weight thing don't work!! I can't take it... It's just a little prayer!!

I'm 13 and I weigh 175. My family calls me fat and they are just mean. I don't want to be just the fat girl in school. I want to be slim enough to wear what I want. I'm going to start walking or running or even bicycling. I want to loose weight so bad.
