Before you post a reply saying that you are overweight or that you want to lose weight, please first check our Weight Calculator . If the calculator says that you are healthy weight, please do not post a message saying that you are overweight or that you want to lose weight. This offends the kids who really are overweight. Thanks a lot. |
Message Replying To From Mandi, Age 14 Ht. 5'3", Start: 142 lb, Today: 139 lb, Goal: 125 lb - First off: I LOVE THIS WEBSITE! I am constantly looking for motivational success stories and great tips from teens that are the same age as me. Ive always struggled with weight issues but I have always been active with swim, dance, bike riding etc. This summer I decided to kick it up a notch and go to a personal trainer 1-2 a week (this is the summer before i start high school btw) My trainer has taught me so much so here are a few things Ive been doing so far: 1. Eat ORGANIC fruits and vegetables. Organic is 40x more nutrient dense than normal fruit and veggies. *all food is better organic but AT LEAST eat organic fruit and veggies 2. Don't worry about eating less calories think about what kind of calories you're putting into your body. So stop counting calories and start switching from cookies to celery and from hot dogs to chicken breast. 3. MOVE! dont think of it as working out just movement! Remember doing 2 push ups is better than none :) |
