Baby girl, from one chunky chick to another, the first thing you need is confidence.

Ive went through what youre going through, I was tall and chunky for my age. First things first before I go into this, guys NOTICE confident girls first. Its how girls get popular, get good jobs, and get the guy. No matter if you are stepping out in your pajamas, if you do it with enough attitude, people will take notice.

1. First take a shower and blow dry your hair, everyone looks more refreshed after a good shower, and hair is easier to style when its clean.
2. Take random chunks of hair and curl them so you have that, " i dont have to try to look this good" hair.
3. use some cover up and even out your skin tone on your face
4. if you have a round face like i do, the trick of the makeup game is to put more focus on your eyes, and ONTOP of your features. Use a bronzer on top and on the side of you cheek bones. use eyeliner ONTOP of you eyelids, not the bottom. Use a nice clear gloss, guys go gaga over it.

Excercise-
Us chunky kids gotta start off diff when we lose weight, we cant just start a pushup regime, because we will lose interest. Ive lost 15 pounds in the past two months going for a 30 minute walk every night. Plug in your IPOD or cd player, blast some tunes that make you wanna dance, and SPEEDWALK for at least a half hour. When you walk, suck in your stomach, because believe it or not, it has the same affect as crunches do. Quit drinking regular pop too. Every pound is 3500 calories. Every 20 oz is 250 calories. If you drink two a day for a week, thats 3500 calories or ONE POUND exactly. who needs that?

Hope this helps love:)

First off, you're beautiful no matter what anybody else tells you. However, the best way to enhance what you've got is by bringing out your best features. For hazel eyes, I would recommend purples and pinks to bring them out more. For the lips, it depends on your skin tone. Experiment a little. See what works for you. The objective to wearing makeup is to look like your not wearing any.

Tae-Bo or Pilates are great exercises for building muscle and increasing your stamina and endurance. However, you're 12 years old. You're still going to go through some pretty wild stuff. The good news is that when you get older, the wild stuff will settle down. But most importantly, what makes you pretty is not what's on the outside; it's what's on the inside. The physical changes, but the internal remains the same. Many blessings.

Just make sure to wash your face day and night to look fresh, maybe apply a face lotion to maintain that great skin of yours smooth and glowing. If possible, no makeup! If you want to look a bit more "polished", however, try a soft cranberry lipstick with a bit of bright lipgloss and a subtle touch of pink blush-- enough to give you a healthy looking flush. For clothes, soft, light colors will look best. Vibrant or bold colors will make you look ridiculous. Make sure your clothes are all well-fitting. Overly baggy or tight clothes are both just as terribly unflattering.

As for exercises, stretch for a moment every morning, after drinking (it's a good idea to keep a water bottle near your bed to drink from during the night or just whenever) and walk any day the weather is good. For at least 30 minutes, I'd say. Dancing to upbeat music, jogging, squats (where you squat for a few minutes, go up again, redo the squatting and repeat the same thing about 10 times), swimming, cycling, push-ups, weights and ballet exercises are all excellent for bulking and/or firming up.

Finally, eat three good meals of fruits, vegetables, diary foods, slow sugar foods and plenty of water *and* brush your teeth twice everyday for two minutes each time. Oh, and take regular showers, applying body lotion afterward.

Now, you'll be sure to be even more pretty than you probably are now! : ) Good luck and have fun!

Edit: shave armpits and possibly legs if hair is too bothering, and for hair, try curly hair. It can look very charming with a round face such as you mentioned! ; )

I'm sure you are already beautiful.. but some tips - You can make subtle changes. Try a new shade for eye shadow and some clear gloss on your lips. Straighten your hair for a week. Add a little cream blush on your cheeks. As for exercises.. try 20 side bends (3 sets) 50 jumping jacks, 60 sit ups, and 20 lunges every morning u wake up! That will make a huge difference in a month. Good Luck

You're on the road to being pretty as it is. If anything, find the hairstyles that flatter your face best. Do an internet search for the answers. Also, pluck your eyebrows if you haven't already, find a way to get rid of any hair on the upper lip and shave your legs and armpits. Oh, and invest in a gym membership. The trainers can tell you best how to lose weight. It may not be that fast, but it will be healthier. And remember: there is a difference between pretty and trashy.

--hey, you should be confident in your self, people will like you for who you are, not your clothing.
But if you're desperate, I'm willing to help!=)

The shops that you shop at are great, popular stores, but watch what you buy there. Tight clothing will make you look fat unless you're extremely skinny, and it looks hideous. Make sure the clothing is comforatble--also, cargo's and twills are a great replacement for jeans.

Your hair is gorgeous, it would look great in a ponytail, or with just a few front strands clipped back.

Basketball( or any loose athletic shorts) will waaay minimize. It does wonders!!

Don't over do the makeup-sheer lipgloss is okay, with some color on your cheek bones, but that is all i suggest.

Exercise is great, yoga can actually help a lot, but running is really good. You have to push when it comes to ahtletics, trust me--I'm average/slim(normal) but am very athletic(fast, and have lots of strenth) thanks to working out and a balanced diet. Watch what you eat! btw, did you know carrots, yogurt, milk, and bananas can make you stronger, prettier, and your skin softer?

Hope I helped!

I know it sounds cheesy but "love who you already are". You need confidence in order to feel pretty.

However, I think your looking for different advice. If you really want to lose weight the perhaps join a gym. For makeup, try some new shades, experiment. Try a new hairstyle. Wear your hair up or go for all curls. Flip through magazines for ideas.

I don't think anyone is 100% happy with the way they look.
Not even the skinny gals!

You.. Have to feel good about yourself!
1st.. Clear hair.. alittle make up
"Look in the mirror" Start with a small change!

Drink water.. eat fruits and vegies..
walk some..
Get some friends OR a friend to go for walks
Go bowling..

Good Luck!!

Dont wear alot of makeup, guys hate that, well i do anyway and all the guys i know do.

Lose weight? easiest is drink alot of water, do crunches, and jog or walk a little each day. Stay away from chips, candy and other junk. Learn to love salads, spinich is really good raw instead of lettuce.
