I guess it all has to do with if you have the determination and you wanna succeed. I know people bigger than I was and they've lost the weight and they also feel great about themselves.

Everyone should just remember regardless of your weight you are all beautiful.

Even though these teens may have appeared to have had confidence on the outside, I bet most of them lacked it in some way or another on the inside. I think teens are more likely to be dissatisfied with themselves compared to adults (although they may not show it). In the end though, it's what's on the inside that matters most. Those who have figured that out early on were ahead of the game.
