Freshman fifteen?


Question Posted Monday August 14 2006, 3:09 pm

I am a rising sophomore (f/15) in high school and i think i have gained atleast 10 pounds since last summer. I'm 5'7 and 146 pounds and i know that isnt overweight or anything but i'm very concerned. I dont exercise much and i m not in any team sports. I've tryed dieting but i'm too much of a procrastinator to stick with anything. What should i do to lose a few pounds or to maintain a steady weight and not just gain? I feel so lazy and sluggish sometimes and the only thing i feel like doing is surfing the internet. I dont think its what I eat thats the problem its mainly lack of exercise. Please give me any exercise tips.

yea diets suck. i would say maybe you could do crunches or sit-ups..maybe 50 each a day?? idk if thats too many but w/e you feel comfortable with.

i heard from a friend that this works: lay down flat on your back. spread your legs apart like youre doing the splits. then sit up and touch the floor in between your legs. it really hurts after a while but it works.

hope i helped!!

okay. well since you are on the internet alot, maybe you should look up some diets that sound good to you and that you can maybe stick with. If you have a dog, you could start taking him/her for walks daily, you could jog (it doesnt have to be long, you could jog a mile, or just around the block.) Try not to always be on the computer. And you should try to join some after school clubs that keep you active. But remember. Dont be pressured into making yourself throw up your food afterwards. Just think to yourself, i am a beautifull young woman, and i CAN do this. Well i hope i helped you :]
