any teenagers?

Hey everyone, I'm Ellie and I am new here. I was just wondering if there were any other teens on here who are having trouble with there weight problems. It would be nice to talk to all of you, but it would be easier to relate to someone more my age, if that makes sense.

Hey!  I'm 17, and I've been chubby since forth grade.  What's ur story?

hey there :]

Well i have always been been on the bigger side, and i am so fed up with it.  Around my freshman year I was about 215, and now I am 5 '7 & 188 pounds,approaching my junior year. I want to eventually get down to 130 pounds, but it seems so far away!

Well you've obviously come a very long way.  It's hard enough to lose one pound and you lost seventeen!  Way to go!  No matter what I'm sure you'll get to 130.  Our bodies know where a healthy weight is, and I really believe that until we reach that we won't stop losing weight.  We might experience some bumps in the road but there's always advice out there to help.  I've actually just graduated from Junior year and now am "technically" a Senior.  So you and I aren't too far apart.  What did you do to lose all that weight?

im 16. and basically, it sucks not being able to wear what i want to
beacuse of my size. everyone swears by american eagle jeans, but i cant
wear them. its nice to know im not the only one.

I'm 19--another year before I don't qualify as a teenager any more! Even though I can buy beer and lottery tickets, do I still count? :) I'm trying to get fit and healthy, rather than lose weight, but I'm here if you need someone to chat with.

I'm 147-150 right now.  But just by how flabby and round I am I can tell that's too much fat for my body.  My legs and butt are the worst.  I feel the same way.  I actually went this whole last year just wearing skirts because I hate the way I look in pants.  People started to think it was because of my religion.  :(

hey im 16 years old im not overweight im just tryin to keep my weight down so when i get older i dont have weight problems.

hey im 14 and think i know how u guys feel. I may be young to be worrying about this compared to everyone else, but my friends also wear those tiny A.E. (american eagle) jeans. I cant for the life of me fit into those, or if i can they are 3 inches too long. I'm not overweight, but my thighs are muscular and i do admit have fat on them. any advice on where to shop? (canadian)

I am fat! 15 5"8, 158 lbs!

hey! welcome to CC!

im 17 and trying to lose weight and tone :)

good luck!

I guess I'm still a teen - 19 y/o

I'm 18. So I count.

Hey, i am also 16 and am getting pissed off with my weight. I weighed 164 last year, and now i am at 150, and am still there! i hate plateaus -_-'. Anyways, i love knowing the fact that there are more people like me here. All of my friends are tiny and thin, and 1 just lost alot of weight (i think shes like 135 now, very beautiful ^_^) and i have 1 other friend who is like 180 i think? Every1 of them is happy with their weight, so i have no one to turn to for some help. Its very sad. So i think this is great, and i would love to chat some more with you people!
