Lacey Roberts, 16, of Birm- ingham, chose a very different path a couple of summers ago. "She had suddenly gotten very heavy, and wanted to take it off," says her mom, Shelley Roberts. She spent three weeks at Camp Shane in Ferndale, N.Y., a weight-loss program in a camp setting, and lost 27 pounds. Last summer, Lacey went to Tony Sparber's New Image Camp in Waterbury, Conn. for eight weeks because she had friends there.
