Reply from anne, Age 17 - 12/18/04 - IP#: 216.66.102.xxx first you need to concentrate on healthy eating habits. like more water- less sugar and junk. eat more fruits and veggies and less calories(say around 1500 or so). you need to eat less sodium(replacing already made snacks with fruits and veggies and eating less processed foods will help with that). eat more lean protein. then, after a couple of weeks of good eating start adding in some exersize(even if it's a very little amount if that's all you can handle because after a while you'll build up endurance)everyone needs exersize to be healthy even if you hate it. changing your life in this healthier way may even help your asthma- i know one of my friends changed her lifestyle so now the only problems she has is around excessive dust or smoke. she can run now too! well- good luck!
