If they are reacting that strongly, perhaps you really do not need to lose weight and they are worried. Have them take you to a doctor and get the doctor's opinion on your height/weight proportion. If the doctor says you need to lose weight, maybe they'll be ok with it. If not, then maybe you need to just work on being healthy and don't focus on your weight. It's not everything.

I know that you feel that you are not "right" because of all the pressure from celebrities and models, for example. But, darling, you are only 13, so you do not have to worry about it too much, just try to exercise more.
But, if your parents are hitting you, I really feel that you should see your school counselor. Because no matter what your goals are, your parents SHOULD not take it out in that way on you...
Hope this helps!!!!

there are a lot of issues here. First of all, ask your doctor if they feel you are overweight they are the best source of information about this, then worry about your diet. Second, if your parents are really hitting , well thats a bigger problem that i think is beyond the scope of what a person on yahoo answers can help you with. You should ask and adult you trust to help you with that.

It really depends on how much you weigh right now. Maybe you don't need to lose weight, but I wouldn't be able to tell you since you didn't provide that in your post. If you truly believe you should diet and lose weight then you need to sit your parents down and explain to them why. Do some research on it and let them know the effects of it on your body. Maybe you get short of breath easy, you have backache, etc. And maybe they will understand then. But ONLY do it if it's necessary! Best wishes!

I agree w/ gdubs. You don't need to worry about your image when you are so young. And if your parents are hitting/abusing you, you NEED to talk to a school counselor RIGHT AWAY!!!! And if you are scarred of talking to the school counselor, there are Hotlines you can call too.
