It would be really nice to go and feel beautiful in my dress, and i don't think i'd feel the best with my weight currently. My eating habits are terrible, just average really. I drink water and tea mostly. I don't always eat healthy food, but i usually eat it in small portions. My concern is really exercise. I tend to get bored easily when working out which is why i quit after a week or so. What can i do to stop that?
Reply from Zainab, Age 17 - 03/02/11 - IP#: 80.227.103.xxx I can relate to you PERFECTLY! Im the opposite though, I love excersising.. the only thing that makes me feel good about my overweight fat body is the ability to run and move and feel amazing after that. Eating habits, disastrous! An emotional eater I'm afraid. Keep at it dude. Your prom comes once, it'll be YOUR day!
Reply from Christine, Age 18 - 01/09/11 - IP#: 150.135.210.xxx I have the same problem, and here are some solutions that I'm trying: 1. If you want to start running, sign up for a race a few months ahead of time and train with something like the Couch to 5K method. 2. Pick up a new sport you've never tried, like tennis. 3. Find a friend who wants to try out a sport with you. 4. If you're near a gym, sign up for a class like cycling. If you have to sign up for a month at a time, even better. 5. Walk someone's dog (bonus if you can get paid for it).
