Ht. 5'2, Wt. 140 lbs. - For at least a year now, I've known that I need to lose weight. My problem is not having time to exercise. I have so many activities after school that are inactive and take up time(piano, sewing, horseback riding). I really don't like sports, and my face always turns BRIGHT red when i work out, so I don't like working out with a lot of other people. My parents won't let me go on walks by myself and it's hard to get a hold of one of my friends to go with. Any workout suggestions for me? I think I might take some golf lessons this spring, but thats not very active either. : ( I want to join a local gym but i'd be embarrased if i saw someone i knew. I'm trying to eat healthy. Is it okay to have a little bit of something bad for you occasionally? Today I couldn't resist and ate a hershey kiss. Thanks so much!

Reply from Tia, Age 14 - 03/29/06 - IP#: 64.136.26.xxx Yea what I would try since you don't like getting your face red, and you really don't want to go to a gym because you might see somebody you know, well then why don't you try just like dancing to music in your bedroom or even in your house, you could even do a couple situps before you go to bed. Also,I know how you feel about the whole thing with your mom not letting you go for walks, because my mom is the same way she won't let me go by myself either So yea, but I love walking, So you could also try just walking aound like in your backyard, or even around the house for a little bit, thats what I do ok. A little ershey kiss now and then won't hurt as long as you like don't eat the whole bag or something. ok Which I'm sure you won't ok well, I hope I helped you just even a little bit. OK Good Luck with every thing ok Bye Bye!
