Just don't snack on anything. Drink two tall glasses of water before each meal to make you less hungry. If you have a job, buy your own healthy food, have vegetables with dinner, eat whole grains. WALK. It's not so hard.

Your parents have to buy vegetables and whole grains for you to be able to eat them. If you don't snack at all, you'll end up eating more at meals, and when your meals consist of grabage food, that's not going to help you lose weight.

If you noticed I said IF you have a job, buy your own food. So in that case you wouldn't need mommy and daddy's approval. If you drink water before you eat, again like I said, you will eat less. You don't NEED to snack. It's ok to be hungry sometimes. Do something to keep your mind off of it, that's how you lose weight. Honestly did you read my post at all before deciding to criticize me?

I have been trying to lose 10 lbs since god knows when but my mom is ALWAYS stuffing me like a pig, but she's always complaining about me losing some weight. She's just as bad as my grandmother. It's not like I'm becoming anorexic or something but seriously just for breakfast I MUST eat: 1 full bowl of cereal, 1 banana, 1 full glass of water, 15 almonds, and a boiled egg. And I'm not allowed to leave the house without eating all that. I mean seriously, one bowl of cereal will suffice. My entire breakfast probably feeds an impoverished family for an entire day. I have 4 full meals a day with snacks (which although are healthy snacks like apples and grapes), but seriously too much of a good thing can be bad too

That's actually a normal, healthy breakfast. Eat 6 small meals instead of 4 large ones. No, she can't make you eat. She can bitch and moan and ground you, but can't actually make you eat. Change your own life. And try some cardio, that'll burn off what you eat and then some.

It really sucks when your hungry, but your village can't find food.

Exercise is by far the healthiest and most reliable way to lose weight. Dieting tends to be successful only temporarily, and you can eat whatever you want if you're on a good exercise regimen.

lol I can't tell if this post is supposed to be sarcastic or not..

It's not supposed to be sarcastic. I really want to lose weight but the only food we have in my house is junk food like cheetos and my parents bring home fast food for dinner at least five nights a week.

oh lol sorry. my house is like the opposite, i'm fine with my weight but my parents won't ever buy junk food. the only snacks i have in my house are either fruit or 100 calorie pack things.

I keep trying to get my parents to buy fruit but they won't because they don't like it. I'm sick of having to have twinkies or cheetos as a snack because it's the only snack food in the house.
