Hi Tina. I hope i can say something realistic and of use. I assume you've probably been given all the usual advice, 'just ignore them', and as i saw, the get someone else to beat them up advice. Well, i know that ignoring these things is easier said then done. Its okay if you do it from the beginning, but at this stage, you'd need to keep it up for quite a while for it to have any effect. Getting them beaten up might be satisfying, but realistically wouldn't achieve much unless they were threatened... then you'd have someone bullying them... not that they don't deserve it, or that i'd be against it, but some don't like that kind of thing. You say the teachers get tired of it? Perhaps you are going to the wrong teachers... are there any other ones around? The worst that can happen if it fails is they can call you a tattle tail AGAIN. At this stage of the game, for a chance of stopping it, that isn't a great risk.
Do you have anyone your close to who you can tell about it.. it makes it alot easier to bear. i dont know how i survived before i did. If you don't, i think you should try and get involved with something seperately from school. Perhaps some kind of club related to a hobby or something, so that you can gain some real friends without the barrier thats been erected... i didn't really gain any friends i saw as REAL in secondary school (or high school depending where you came from) for over 2 years after things stopped... and i'd been bullied pretty much solidly there for 3 years, and in primary school before. But this isn't my center stage.
I can't say to you, 'your not fat', or 'don't worry about it', because i don't know if your not fat, and i cant make you not worry about it. chances are now even if the bullying is somehow stopped, your going to carry it with you for a long time. as it is , i think what you should be considering doing is one or several of the following: going to a different teacher, switching classes, switching schools.
I'm a bit reluctant to say anything about losing weight, because you want to lose out for the bullies, but i suppose thats neither here nor there now..
only this advice if you wont to lose weight for yourself, and its no guarantee,
nor is it fun
how do you try to lose it? you may have to accept your genetics, but first you should be sure your doing the best you can at losing it. you'll want to find out stuff like how many calories your normally eat a day, and chop 500 off it. if you take off more than that, well you shouldn't anyway... if you combine that with some form of cardio exercise... like cycling or running.. theres plenty of options... start doing however much you can till your out of breath but can still talk... be disciplined and work out how long you can do... then gradually try to increase the time... you'll wanna be doing about 3 days a week.
i hope some of thats some use. i dont really say anythign as helpful as id like to be
