working out, loosing weight
hey. 14/f. ok, well i really want to loose some weight. like 20-30 pounds or somethin like that. i've tried before, but i just can't seem to stick to it because of one reason. i'm worried that when i loose weight, there will be that gross left over skin. and even when i get older i wouldn't want to get lipo or anything. so will there be extra skin?? cause i would rather be somewhat fat then have all that extra gross skin just hanging there. lol. sorry, that was a little gross. anyways. i also have another question. what are some good foods that i can eat. i know fruit and stuff, but what else? and also, do those 100 clorie ( idk how to spell that) packs work?? please help with all of these questions!! thanks!!!! luv luv!

i think the people below me are right, losing 20-30 pounds won't give you extra skin. and if you're still worried about that, i'd ask a doctor what will happen with your skin.
and yes, fruit is good to eat. vegetables, lean meat, and protein is good. if you're really tempted to eat sweets, try to eat fruit bars or something not loaded with fat (like ice cream). Lots of green vegetables will be really good for you. and protein will fill you up and keep you energized.
as for the 100 calorie packs, they're healthy, but you'll just want to eat more afterwards. i'd stick with healthy things that fill you up that are good for you. try having some fat-free yogurt, some cheese, and apples. that's a good snack that will fill you up.
hope i helped :)

If you stick well with your diet and exercise, you shouldn't see much of saggy skin. Also, if you don't lose all those pounds drastically, it should cause in saggy skin. Maybe a little but not noticeably a lot.
For eating, you should stick with healthy things like fruits and veggies and water instead of soda and juices. Instead of white bread, eat whole wheat. Instead of milk, drink low fat milk. Erm, instead of chips, try eating fruits & veggies. Pick healthier choices--no junk food, mustard instead of mayo, no peanut butter, no butter.
And the 100 calorie snacks...they only have a little in there and you'll probably be tempted to eat more after one packet. So instead of that, grab an apple or some carrot sticks =)

Ok, I'm going to attempt to answer the questions here:
EXTRA SKIN: I don't believe that 30 lbs would make your skin sag. But one way to avoid that in exercise. I lost 33 lbs and I didn't get saggy anywhere...just tighter. But, then again, I exercise regularly.
FOODS: Fruits, veggies, whole grains, protein, low fat/low cal anything, watch your sugar, calories, fat, sodium, and carbs. Watch your portion sizes and just eat sensibly.
100 CAL PACKS: I eat them every day and they haven't altered my maintaining my weight. There's a bit of sugar in them, but not too bad. Just don't go crazy.
