Getting Fat


Question Posted Sunday September 11 2005, 3:48 pm

I'm starting to realize that I'm putting on weight. I am 13 and I weigh about 118 pounds. It's normal but i am getting a large gut ( my stomach slants outwards if you look at me from the sides ) and my thighs are massive. I want to watch what I eat but I don't understand about carbs and calories. How much of each am I supposed to eat and what type can I eat. How many meals do I eat and how many carbs should I have per meal. Please help me.

i have a really easy plan to go by that's way healthy & you don't have to cut out the foods you love. but if you ask me 13 & 118 isn't much, but then again it depends on your height.

-sleep 9/10 hrs every day [sleep is important]
-eat a good sized breakfast, if you don't eat breakfast er if it isnt enough, your body will go into starvation mode & you can gain weight er won't lose any
-eat all 3 meals [good for your metabolism]
-eat every 3 hrs if possible, its tricky because they have to be healthy such as fruits, veggies, crackers, etc.
-try to exercise at least an hour, it doesnt have to be a lot either juss simple exercises

Weight for girls is a very sensitive issue.

how much soda or carbonated beverages do you consume a day? Do eat until you are so full you have to unbutton your pants, or until you are satified?

These are question you need to ask your self.
Soda will definately get you. Cut your intake by half. You should also eat 5 small meals per day.
Make a scheldule for your self for when it is time to have a snack.
Breakfast, snack, Lunch, snack, Dinner. Don't eat after 7 or 8 pm. It will be harder for your food to digest when you go to sleep and will be almost impossible to lose that weight.

Keep your head up and whatever you may want, if you want it bad enough, it will happen! =)

hey hun, its normal to put on some weight as you grow. you are suppose to have 3 meals and 2 snacks a day or 6 tiny meals if your on a certain diet like Atkins or the South Beach. Go to www.toneteen.com it gives you details about how many calories, carbs ect. and exersizes to do for stomach legs ect.

Well, at your age it is normal to put on some wait because you are growing and it will even out. But don't worry about carbs and calories. All you have to do is watch what you eat. Try to stay away from fast food and sweets. When you want a snack have some vegetables or fruit. Also when you have a meal like dinner have small portions. Then you can have a little bit of everything and not feel so guilty. Try to exercise at least 3 times a week. Go on a walk or ride your bike for 30 min or do some sit-ups. I hope I helped.
