Structures of Newtonian supermassive stars are calculated with the opacity for Compton effect κ0/(1+αT), where κ0 = 0.2(1+X) and α = 2.2×10-9K-1. The track of the main-sequence is turned right in upper part of the HR diagram. Mass loss will occur in a main-sequence stage for a star with mass larger than a critical mass. The cause of mass loss and the expansion of the radius is continuum radiation pressure. The critical mass for mass loss is 1.02×106M_sun; for a Population I star, and 1.23×105M_sun; for Population III star. Mass loss rates expected in these stars are 3.3×10-3 and 4.0×10-3M_sun;yr-1, respectively.
