Question Posted Monday July 3 2006, 2:34 am

I read how you helped that other girl (atleast I think it was a girl, I don't remember-haha) make a fitness diagram. I was hoping you could help me too.
<p>
<p>
I'm 15 years old, 5'3" and weight 119 pounds. I know I'm not fat, but like you said everyone wants to shed a few extra pounds. My theighs are larger and my tummy too. It makes me feel gross around people, and I know if I could figure out what do to help, I could feel better about myself.
<p>
<p>
I love food. I mean LOVE. If it looks good I'll eat it, I hate it. It makes me feel like a pig. I have gotten into the habit of eating less, and I know it's not good to eat less, but to eat healthier.
<p>
<p>
I don't feel comfortable going outside and say running (not that I dont love to run, I dont like people looking at me funky). So if you could give me an idea of what I could do inside, and how long I should do it. I have a motavation, I just don't know what to do. Thanks alott & you are super pretty. &hearts;

Thanks for the compliment. I appreciate it. ^_^

Okay, well, about a year ago, I was exactly like you. I would eat anything that I would see. I love Italian food, so I would always pig out on it. But, the problem was, was that Italian food had a lot of grease and fat in it. I noticed that I gained a little weight. I got into volleyball at my school, and started running, and exercising. It really helped.

You can start by simply changing the types of foods that you eat. Go for diet soda [that doesn't mean that you should drink soda all of the time], and go for 'fat free' foods. If the item has more than 180 calories and more than 2 grams of saturated fat, then it's not good for you. I'll give you the example that I gave the other person. I LOVE cream cheese. But, I usually get the 'light' kind. I checked the label AFTER I bought it [big mistake], and it had 2.5 grams of saturated fat. However, I went to the store, and I found that the 'fat free' cream cheese only had 1 gram of saturated fat. It's the simple things that can keep you healthy.

As for exercising, you can do simple workouts at home.

Check that site out. They have various exercises for you to try. None of them require weights, or any special equipment. Choose about 3 of the exercises that you want from the page, and do each one for about 20 minutes a day. Don't expect to see results in 2 days. It might take a few weeks. But, you have to stick to the routine. And for your thighs, try this site:

They have little videos that you can play so it can show you the exercises instead of explaining it in text so that it fills the whole page.

Good luck && Hope I helped!
