APRIL POLL

You will see the results so far as soon as you vote, or you can click "see the results without voting".  Please vote only once for each poll.  Thanks a lot. 


Question:

Most kids and teens posting on the bulletin boards of this site say simply, "I am overweight... tell me how to lose weight?"  Why do you think they do this?
                   (vote for one)

They don't want to take the time to read the stuff in the 
   School, the Questions & Answers, or the Success Stories.

They are looking for support and encouragement from other 
    kids and teens.

They probably know that they have to cut down on food and 
   that they have to exercise, but they are looking for some 
   other way to lose weight.
