mychaela - Have you talked to your parents? If they know that it's bothering they would hopefully help you out.

Agreed. Not to brush you off, but at age 11, this is something you need to bring up with your parents. Maybe tell them about the site and let them participate with you. I know that sounds totally out of the question at your age, but they really do need to be involved. They buy the food, and that is ultamately going to be what your weight loss comes down to. Give it a try. You might be surprised.

I have an 11 year old daughter that worries about her weight/appearance as well-she weighs about 120lbs. I just encourage her to eat healthy, cutting out pop, chips and other junk foods makes a huge difference. When she talks to me about her concerns I just reasure her that she is still growing and is storing some fat for onset of puberty..which is absolutely true. I also encourage her to get fun exercise, which she does....So mychaela, make healthy choices, talk to parents or a trusted peer and try not to let it get you down, your young and still have lots of growing to do:big_smile:

Even if you are on the right track, you will get run over if you just sit there.
