Fussy Eater
Posted Wednesday April 18 2007, 4:43 am
I am told and must admit I'm a fussy eater. I am male and 16.
The thing is I eat quite routinely. My breakfast always consists of Wheetabix, lunch always consists of Tomato Sauce sandwiches! Amongst other things, eg yesterday I also had a doughnut, banana and sausage roll along side that.
The thing is if I was offered Spaghetti, curry, Pasta or something I'd reject it. I think truthfully I've never tried them, I just feel like I wont like them.
I also have a problem with fruit and drink. I feel I don't like strawberrys, oranges, grapes etc but I love the drinks!
Whats the case here?! Should I try and eat the stuff I hate or something?

anorexia and bloating.
Posted Monday April 16 2007, 12:58 am
Hi, I recently asked the question about anorexia and menstruation and bloating and the main response that I got back was not that I was bloated from lack of menstruation but the anorexia itself. So why am I bloated from anorexia? Okay...what makes anorexic people bloated? And what can I do to make it go away, besides eating? Help?

eating better to lose weight
Posted Sunday April 15 2007, 11:04 pm
I'm looking to lose maybe 10 pounds. I know it's better to eat more small meals during the day than a few big ones, so I'm doing my best to accomadate that plan. But I'm not very good with figuring out how to distribute the meals to be a good size so I have enough energy but I'm not over eating, and how to balance out the nutrients.
For breakfast, I love eggs with cheese and like toast or something... I'm not sure if that's a great idea but it's always my favorite. If it's not good, what else is a better initiative?
For lunch it doesn't matter much but my cafeteria's selection isn't very healthy so I pack my lunch - anything that won't spoil in my locker is fine, so suggestions here would be great :)

PMS Cravings- help
Posted Sunday April 15 2007, 7:30 pm
I'm a teenager and my periods have been regular for quite some time. My problem is with cravings. I'm on a strict diet- and I can't deal with always being bombarded with random cravings for unhealthy food. It's unbelievable how intense they are- like I feel as though I should kill myself if I can't get the food I'm craving.
How do I stop these?
they always ruin my dieting efforts.

Oily Skin
Posted Saturday April 14 2007, 1:57 pm
I have very oily skin. It's so bad that I go to the bathroom everyday in school and while I used the restroom I use the toilet paper to *try* to get some of the oil off of my face by dabbing at my oily places. It's embarassing to have oily skin.
So I was wondering if anyone has any tips, home treatments, or product recomendations for me?
Thanks.

Vegetarian
Posted Wednesday April 11 2007, 10:19 pm
I don't think this is the right category--maybe under health? Anywhos, I had a question about being a vegetarian. I'm 14/f and I am trying to be a vegetarian. It's not for weight loss or anything, I just want to be a vegetarian because I think it's much healthier than eating meat everyday.
Anywhos, I know that since being a vegetarian means no meat, I know that missing out on meat means missing out on proteins and such. So I was wondering what kinds of food I would be needing to eat in order to make up for the missing meat. And also if anyone knew a site that had good vegetarian receipes that a 14 year old can cook easily other than allrecipes.com.
Thanks!!! =]

what can i eat?
Posted Tuesday April 10 2007, 11:20 pm
i'm lactose intolerant, so i can't eat anything with dairy. no cheese, no yogurt, no milk.
most of my favorite foods have cheese in them, and i can't eat them anymore. i can't eat mac & cheese, no more pizza, no more cheesecake, or cheese crackers (goldfish/cheesenips), or things like that. i can't even eat ice cream.
i can eat them, but i end up getting sick, and i hate it. what are things i can eat (that appeal to a teenager's taste) & that won't get me sick?

How many calories?
Posted Tuesday April 10 2007, 10:45 pm
Ok, I'm 5'8, weigh about 138 pounds and am 16 yrs old. I exercise 5-6 days a week and burn about 400+ calories each time I work out.
I'm trying to lose weight, and right about now I'm eating around 800-1,400 (at the absolute most) calories per day. Is that too much? Should I cut out more or add more? I have no idea!

frustrated
Posted Monday April 9 2007, 8:13 pm
15/f. i'm not even going to post my weight because i know its in the healthy BMI range and then you guys will just tell me that i don't need to lose weight. and i know i don't need to lose weight, that isn't my question. my quesiton is that even know i'm at a healthy weight range and i know that i'm pretty slim, i still have a little fat near my stomach especially around and below my belly button. and i'm so frustrated because i've been doing over 100 crunches a day, and i run on my treadmill a lot and its still there! for the most part i try to eat healthy, but i know i don't always eat healthy.
also how bad is diet soda for you? because i drink one almost everyday and i want to know how bad it is for me and if i should stop.
thanks!
