Recommended Answer:

If you are overweight, you can't start early enough to change to a healthy life stylein this case your parents should respect you for this decision and I'm sure they will!Just talk to them about your problem and make them understand it would be embarrassing for you if they make 'a big deal' out of itAs you are only 13, you should not overdo dieting, don't starve yourself and allTeenage bodies have different needs.And you can also adopt a healthy lifestyle without all this diet 'drama'just have an eye on 'what' you eat and drink and get enough sport and exerciseGood luck for you :)

• Losing weight it a good thing, if you truly are a overweight. Just make sure you lose it in a healthy way. There is nothing wrong about people knowing you are trying to better yourself. Tell your parents if you want to. I'm sure they will understand.
