Default Need some guidance.

When I was a kid my parents told me that I was strong for my age, and they still do. I don't know if it was to boost my self-esteem or if it was true. I am 16 years old and I am overweight, or at least I feel that way. I am 175-180 pounds and 5'8". My weight fluctuates between that quite a bit. I don't eat meat, I don't know why. I used to eat it all the time as a kid. Nothing happened in my life to make me stop, I just stopped. I eat a VERY, VERY little variety of foods. I eat pasta, and peanut butter toast. I used to play baseball for school, then I stopped. I am trying to think of the day when I changed all of the sudden. I do terrible in school, I get in trouble almost every day. I don't act like I do at home while at school. I don't know what is wrong with me. Every so often I think about suicide. Even as much as I believe it would feel so good to let all of my problems go away, I don't let myself go any further, because I know I can fix it, I just don't know how. I need to get myself stable, and I am horrified at the idea of telling my parents all of this, because they have no idea how I feel, and if they did, they would fall apart. I don't want to hurt them. If anyone can please help me on this, just any little bit of advice you can. I can only exercise inside because I am not allowed to leave my backyard, as my mom fears I will cause trouble. I am not trolling, and this is not fake, this is serious. I have posted in multiple forums and have been banned for trolling. PLEASE do not do that.

Uhm. Well to lose weight excersize in your house, or back yard. Tell your parents you're interested in working out in the house, and see if they will allow you to have some excersize equipment. Or even get a gym membership, and if you're still causing fights at the gym, I suggest you see a therapist. Try focusing all your energy on becoming healthy, instead of fighting. Eat healthier foods, vegetables and fruits, and meat, have a balanced diet. Pasta and peanut butter are good, but only in moderation. Talk to a school guidance counsellor, they have a confidentiality that they can not tell your parents or anyone else what you talk about, unless if has to do with harming yourself or someone else, so it's not going to put any extra stress on your parents, but may help you figure out what you're doing with your life.

damn dude, there isn't a real way to help you. you're fuckin' hopeless. but besides that, just do a lot of pushups, overhand claps, situps, crunches, flutter kicks, iron mikes, and mountain climbers. do them until you can't do them anymore, and do them some more. then do a good series of stretches, and drink a lot of water. do that like 2-3 times a way or whatever you want, just as long as it's often.
