  • All my life i was raised to eat whatever i want whenever i want even if i was full. My dad constantly picks on me for my weight. I'm 17yrs old and 150lbs and 4' 10". So about 50lbs over weight, My dad has told me that its okay to stop eating for 90 days and that my body can handle it. He also said just eat enough to make the huger pains go away...Every time i eat, no matter what it is, he'll say something. It hurts, it really does.

  • Fine line? There is a huge difference between obesity & anorexia, millions of people at healthy weight. If you don't want your kids to be obese, be responsible. Don't feed them tons of cupcakes. Feed them sensibly.

    "You know, you don't hear about…" YOU'RE THE NEWS! You control what we hear about! And you're not helpful. It's YOUR FAULT for causing the alarm of the "obesity epidemic" that panics parents into strictly controlling what their kids eat.
