Take it from me, guys...I was an overweight teen but I am 25 now and healthy. Please listen to educated adults and not other kids who are also trying to lose weight (for the record, l-o-o-s-e spells loose, the opposite of tight...l-o-s-e spells lose, as in lose weight). Anyway, read these tips and good luck losing weight.
1) You cannot gain calories...you gain fat. Calories are made up of the energy in food and burning calories refers to the amount of energy you use when losing the fat.
2) Bread, pasta, potatoes, and rice should be kept to a minimum, because they are high in carbs, which is a form of sugar, which eventually turns into fat if it is not burned off as energy. Whole wheat bread is good in moderation.
3) Skipping meals can slow down your metabolism, and losing weight will be even harder.
4) Exercise a little everyday, even if it is dancing around your room, walking the dog, or jump-roping in the yard.
5) Eat fruits and veggies and drink LOTS of water. If you must have a soft drink have only one every other day and make it diet.
6) Last but most important...Don't lose weight just to gain acceptance from friends and the community. Real friends love and accept you the way you are and will support you if and when you decide to lose weight. Also, to those who are worried that boys will never ask them out, I worried about that too but, beleive me, your time will come and the boys will start knocking on your door.
Guys, I know this was a long message but please be careful, because you can really hurt your body if you don't know what you are doing. See a doctor and follow his/her advice. Email me if you have any questions. Good luck!!! tulipgirl1@hotmail.com
