Hey I'm new and I would like to get to know some people since I am a dieter that requires support I am 260lbs (pounds) and 5'6. I'm 13 and could really use some help. Any moms or teenagers understand how hard it is to be "overly chuncky" in school. Anyways I'm open to any help, advice or support. thanks

Hi,

I'm neither a mom or a teenager, but i teach high school students if that counts for anything. I have found that everyone here is really nice and supportive. It isn't easy to be a teenager and different in anyway. Do you have any plans to help you lose weight in a healthy manner? Good luck with your goals.

Welcome! My homepage health tip this morning said something like this ....The best way to start eating healthier is to log everything you eat for 3 days. The first step in changing for the better -- see how often you eat 5 fruits and vegetables a day ... I think that's good advice.

Default Oly, WA?

Nice to meet you! Are you from Oly, WA? Me too! I'm a bit older than you (27) but I vividly remember the sting of school. If you need support don't hesitate to drop me a line. The best thing I've found is to try and control portions and to find healthy things you like. My biggest hurdle was trying to eat healthy foods I didn't like. So, I did a lot of reading and experimenting in the kitchen. Just take it one day at time! You can do it.
