Re: Ugh.
Lol. I'm surrounded by fat people all the time...[Of course I'm skinny ^^]
Okay, so since I've been small my mum has never bought me any form of junk food whatsoever. It was all healthy shit. But on the other hand other kids [for example] get little snacks that they take to school all the time, e.g. chocolate or a packet of chips. So eventually all these kids will get fat from eating to many snacks, but I NEVER have any.
Does this explain why I'm surrounded by fat people???
Lol but srsly, almost everyone around me is obese.

Re: Ugh.
I'm sorry, but I think that's a bit selfish. It might be annoying, but If your brothers are hungry, that would be mean to just take their food. If you're still hungry order another pizza or make something your self.

Solution 1: use ur allowance or salary (get a job) and go out and buy your own food as much as you like if what your mom is giving you is insufficient.
Solution 2: wait till ur in college. More freedom, more privacy, maybe more time, and most likely more money will help you eat as much as you want to.
i dont see any other solution that can be practical.
but for chrissakes dont worry about your siblings. Theyre just kids. Once they get older they'll figure out the consequences of being overweight and its up to them to decide whether to get a healthier diet or not. By then ud have a job and be responsible for only yourself and it would be heaven.

Alright here's a little backround...
In my family we have 9 kids *all in one marriage*. Well I'm the 6th child and oldest in our house atm. *the rest are off at Collage, Married etc...* and I'm a scrawny 6'3 *possibly '4* tall 16 year old white boy. Trying to you know "beef up" some. I weigh 150 I had gotten to 157 but now I've lost it *not intentionally = (*. Anyways, I have a younger sister who's 14, two younger brothers who are 11 and 10. My family is genetically rather skinny *even though we're also genetically prone to skin cancer on my Dad's side -_-* Anyways, so pretty much all of us kids have been reasonably skinny from age 6-19. *yeah we gain weight at collage* BUT my two youngest brother's *there's 7 brothers in all* are rather chubby. Simply due to sitting around watching TV, playing Xbox and not exercising enough. Another main contributing factor to their usual *for my family* weight gain is that they eat to much, To put it simply.
Now, for instance when we have...lets say... Pizza. Everyone get's an equal amount. Which means my little needing to lose some weight brothers eat the same amount as me. A tall skinny 16 year old who's still growing and filling out, And my Dad. It's insane because it just doesn't make sense. They should be trying to lose weight *and they are* so like I point out to my Momma they should eat less then they currently are and I should eat more. We shouldn't be fed the same amount of food simply because that's ridiculous for a 16 year old still growing boy to eat the same amount as an 11 and 10 year old who are somewhat overweight.
The problem is. My Momma after having 9 kids is rather overweight herself *can't blame her* So when I bring up the unfairness of this situation she just get's mad and accuses me of being insensitive since I have no idea what it's like to be overweight. I understand that she'd get upset about it but just because she and my little bro's are overweight doesn't give her an excuse for defending their behavior simply because she takes it personally. It makes it so I can't even bring up the subject without her getting upset. Thus, crippling any hope of helping my little brothers losing weight. It's just stupid and I'm fed up with it.
/rant
What should I do?
P.S I don't mean this to offend anyone if I did I apologize. I just had to get it off my chest.
tasdik, unlike most of the need less comments here, i understand wht you are saying...
If I were to tell something about my brothers/mother, my parents will get mad as well..
I think the right way to do it is to target your brother and try to make them change their habits.
Or, once my brother was failing, and I advised my parents to take off the internet for him to get better grade and it worked, kind of. Try to persuade your parents to stop their habits because they are effecting themselves in the future. Talk about the future about your brothers, that usually attracts parents.
Thanks, I'll try that

The problem is they just don't eat untill their full. They eat untill their STUFFED as in can't eat another bite. I'm not trying to starve my bro's by stealing their food lol

Re: Ugh.
In my opinion, Unless you're super skinny, There's no need to lose weight. You'll get fat one day so just enjoy being skinny now. I'm sure when ur like 40 you'll fatten up just fine.

Re: Ugh.
When you criticize younger brothers, even if you have the most logical, reasonable, good intentional reason to do it, your parents always show up you're messing with them and they won't just answer you with good arguments to defend them, they'll always end just saying "shut up", "don't mess" or "mind your own business", as you just can't answer in another way to someone who's speaking right things. I got a younger brother and I know what you feel.
The best thing you can do is persuade your parents, like someone else said before. And it's persuade, with simple/basical things, don't come with intellectual arguments as that would be something else than prsuading and it will not work
If they insist so much in being like that, and always tell you to mind your own business, if you feel it's really pointless, the only thing you can do is wait for them to realise it themselves and then tell them "I told you so". I know it doesn't sound so right sometimes, but you're limited to that, unfortunately.

Re: Ugh.
I guess ill give my 5 cents from my life experiences.
Well when I was younger I was overweight up until 5th grade and was tired and angry at the way people looked/treated me and way my parents covertly looked/treated me. Ever since like 3rd grade I played lacrosse in the spring, but that was not enough to keep weight down. Then, one year when I went to the doctors for a check-up he said that if I did not get my weight down it would increase my risk for heart disease in the future. So, at that moment I realized that being overweight caused more problems then just being teased or treated differently and decided i was going to get healthy. That summer, I started to run everyday and devised a plan to increase the distance I ran too. At first my dad ran with me which was nice because you hav someone to keep you going( whichI encourage you to do for your bros.) After starting to loose weight it sort of became addictive and kept at because it made me feel good that i was accomplishing what I set out to do(not like compulsive exercise though.) By the end of summer break i lost like 17 pounds and got considerably faster. Now, I am like 5.9 130 pounds and run cross country in the fall, play lacrosse in the spring, and lift weight pretty much year round. So I guess the moral of the story is that no matter how hard you want your brothers to loose weight, they hav to hav the will to do it themselves first.
As for you my friend and your weight problems, its not how much you eat , its what you eat
. You should try to eat food high in protein or take protein supplements (Like Boost, Zone bars, ect) and lift weights so u gain weight but most of that weight is muscle. For example, hav a friend that like 5.6 125 pounds, but he can max out on the bench at 175 pound. Also, Fat weights more than muscle and is more attractive
.
Anyways, I hope I helped and didn't just rant away.

Re: Ugh.
Nice story
Yeah I guess the problem is that they don't have the will to lose weight. Maybe in a year or so they will. I guess I'll just keep trying to nudge them in the right direction.
And yeah my beefing up is a work in progress. But at least it's progressing ; )

Also, a lot of people eat because they're bored. Try lure their attention to drinking water which fills you up, yet can be simply lost in your next pee
But as I said, redirect their hunger to salads, nutritious foods, and water.

Re: Ugh.
When you say your brothers are fat...how fat do you mean? Like obease fat or just big fat? If its big fat, dont get mad at them, just teach them to turn them into muscle and then they could probably kick your ass due to body mass and weight lol

All in all, if you see that your brothers want to continue this way of thier life, I would say that you just chill for now and just talk about it with em later on and try to explain what your trying to say to them.

My 11 year old bro *turning 12 in a month* is more so obease...not like obease obease but close. He's got man boobies. My younger bro who's 10 isn't as bad but he's being steadily gaining weight and slowly getting fatter. But, like I said I'm more worried about the older one simply because of his man boobs...they don't go away.
