Your problem is probably not about weight. Since you are obviously addicted to food, and you went to jail for using drugs, you probably have an addictive personality. There is not shame in that, but treating the symptoms of addiction without looking at the causes and learning to manage the addiction itself will not do any good. I hope I do not sound judgmental, but you probably need some counseling. You need someone to help you learn to love yourself so that you do not feel compelled to abuse your body with food, drugs, punishing exercise and diets, or other substances. I am hoping very much that you learn to do that, because you are worthwhile, at any weight, and you deserve the best life you can give yourself!
Your therapist is there to help you. The best chance you have of being a normal seventeen year old is to tell the people who can help you so that the right treatment can be found, allowing you to live as normally as possible.
I am wishing you good health!

Both conditions can be managed, and no matter what you may or may not have you are a wonderful person with so much to add to the world! Don't be scared. Be strong and know that you are perfect the way you are.
They time heals all wounds, but it really doesn't. If you do not deal with these things, twenty years can go by and it will be just like today.
Please tell someone, not to get them punished, although they should be, but to get the kind of counseling you need to not let this define your life.
You are good and gorgeous and fantastic, and you do not deserve this.

Your past does not define you. Please don't let them kill your body as well as your spirit.
Don't ever be sorry for who you are.
And I bet you are gorgeous.
People who do not see the real you are not worth your time, not the other way around.

There is nothing harder than letting go of an old love that doesn't fit anymore.
Treasure your old love for what it was, and know that you will find a new one. It won't be the same, but it will be just as good, or better, in its' way.

You don't have to tell anyone. It is awful to have to keep it a secret, but you are not very far away from being able to live independently, and then you only have to answer to yourself and God (and the landlord sometimes haha). I would not stay in the relationship and I would absolutely not have sex with him, if I were you. Don't add more damage to your already rough time.
Ask him. Tell him. If you really do feel this way, the only chance you are taking is not knowing what could have been, because even if he doesn't feel the same (and he probably does) holding it all in is not good for you.
No one can ever fully explain being scared. I have this weird theory that aliens suck my brain while I sleep at night. I know it can't possibly be true, but it still terrifies me.
If it is uncomfortable and awkward the timing is not right. I would say wait until you feel totally at ease and no embarrassment at all about the thought of any of it. This should be a beautiful, loving experience, not one fraught with anxiety.
If you decide to do it, please, please use condoms, and spermicide. Condoms are only 80% effective on their own.

You are not too fat for anyone. Don't ever say that about yourself. People who value outsides over insides are not good enough for you, not the other way around.
If you really do not like the way you look, do something about it, but do it for you, to make yourself happy, not to snag a guy.
Many hugs from,
A curvy, probably-older-than-you lady

Lots of woman's bodies are not fully mature and ready for sexual activity until sometime in their twenties. Just keep working on it, and if you are not too shy get a vibrator or a shower head massager.
Everyone does it. I did it twice today.
I washed my hands before I posted.

Don't stay and be miserable and mistreated. Your kid will be healthier if you leave while the baby is young and does not remember living with both mom and dad, before the kid sees any fighting.
You will be okay without him.
But don't leave unless you know it is not worth fighting for.

Cousins are not that closely related. It is safe. The family will probably be a little freaked, so make sure it is really worth it.
There are way worse things than smoking. If you care about her, then don't end things over that. Should she have been honest with you? Probably. Should you be a little less judgmental? Probably. People with substance abuse issues of any kind are only successful at stopping when they choose to, not when they are forced to. And if you really do care for her, she should not have to be scared that you will break up with her.
The likelihood is not that you will get married and grow old together, so this is probably more about control than it is concern for her health. You didn't even know so she is not doing it enough for it to stink her up.
