about

Hi, I'm just really out in life to have some fun, trying to keep homework, my life, my friends, my pets and school under control. I wouldn't call me the average teenager because I am quite different with my personal circumstances. But I can honestly say I wouldn't have it any other way (well maybe some changes). I have learnt good and bad things the hard way and watched friends get hurt- I haven't been through it all but I'm working on it. Help you? I'm not sure but lets see how well this advice column goes. Ask Shaylee :)

okay ive been dieting for the past like 3 dayz...ive been eating about 3 healthy meals a day and stop eating around 6. but today i dunno if i ruined it. I have an orange, an apple and a banana for breakfast, then for lunch i had a portion of turkey and a turkey sandwich with wheat bread, and then for dinner i had a bowl of chicken soup..But inbetween the meals i had another orange, a boiled egg, another apple, and another banana, and a bite of a pickle... it sounds like alot but it was through out the whole day..is this gunna affect my diet because i kinda over did eating the fruits?? thanks!

Can I suggest something. Diets are usually bad for you because you stick to certain foods and sometimes you just don't get the right nutrition and its easy to stuff up (which you didn't by the way) Firstly there are soo many good foods out there which you are cutting out of your diet. How about you cut out the bad ones instead of picking the ones you can't eat.

For example. You are not allowed to have any dessert, junk food, juice with added sugars, white bread (go with brown bread), sports drinks, chips and coffee (yes i know hard one).

See how you go with that, its really hard, I know because I am a dancer and I know what its like to watch what I eat, but the most common mistake is not getting the right nutrients and then overeating in response. Yes it can happen- and does a lot.

And most of all don't bite off more then you can chew (yes lame I know) don't jump into a diet so fast, because we aren't that strong we can't stop ourselves from soo much good food out there- it takes time, practise and self control- hard but you'll get there.

Just one more because if I don't stop I'll rant all night, its better to have five smaller meals then 3 big ones. Its got to do with your metabolism and how it processes your food into energy or fat- long story. If you want more info feel free to ask

good luck- sorry its long
