You are overweight. I am too. I am 18 years old and 350 pounds... about 160 kg. You should lose weight to be healthy, not to be a certain size. It's great that you love to eat your veggies... I hate them lol. try to incorperate a fruit or veggie into every meal. Do you drink soda?

if she is into games get a nintento Wi FIt lol, it really works, lose weight and have fun at the same time, she can also try having a better diet with a mixture of a lot of different coloured fruits and vegetables and eat less fatty food, or she can exericise like 10-30 mins a day and like in a month she would loose a considerable amount of weight
