Dear Ann,
I’m sorry to hear that you are getting fatter than before, and you always feel tired. I think you’d better go to see a doctor for help first. Try to eat more fresh fruit and vegetables instead of junk food. It’s good for you to take enough exercise, too. You can run or play basketball after class. After dinner, you’d better take a walk. Finally, make sure you have at least eight hours’ sleep every night.
