You are overweight. I am too. I am 18 years old and 350 pounds... about 160 kg. You should lose weight to be healthy, not to be a certain size. It's great that you love to eat your veggies... I hate them lol. try to incorperate a fruit or veggie into every meal. Do you drink soda?

Well if you cant lose weight it is because you probably have a low metabolism which means it is much harder for you to lose weight.Also, don't worry about what ppl think say " if you have a problem with being overweight you hav to deal with it".

Learn to English much Sissy. Everyone needs support, just like you need to learn how to spell LOOK at least.
Chubby but Not Fat, you probably do have a low metabolism but you can change that by getting plenty of excersise, vitamin B and eating a balanced diet. But the kJ in what you eat has to be less than the kJ you burn. Aearobic excersise is best, when your body can't get enough oxygen for cellular respiration, it starts to burn through the protein and lipids in your body to get the energy needed. i would recommend excersising for over forty minutes at a time to assist this process. i'm chubby too. :P
