While you may have no say in what your mother prepares for dinner, you do have a say in how much of it you put in your mouth, and that is the key to weight loss. First, make a point of telling your whole family that you plan to lose weight for your health. All mothers want their children to be healthy. However, you can't make her change her eating/cooking if she's not ready, so just control your portions; weight loss is all about cutting calories. When you eat out or at your school's cafeteria, choose more healthful and lower-calorie dishes, such as grilled chicken. Ask for your brothers' advice and search the Web for weight loss success stories. In time, perhaps your example will inspire your family. I was obese in my teens but lost 100 lbs. over a year ago, so I understand how you feel. Good luck.
