distorted view of healthiness


Question Posted Tuesday April 24 2007, 9:37 pm

i have a really distorted view of healthiness. i have one egg (only the white part and maybe like a bite of the yolk..its hardboiled), some yogurt and fruit for lunch, and a pretty good dinner, but i really limit myself on what i'll eat..and barely any sweets. i'm SO afraid that even if i have a couple cookies or something, i'll get fat. could someone please set me straight on this distorted view on healthy eating? like what kind of diet will make you fat, and what won't?

for a reference, i'm 15/f and about 128-130 pounds (5' 7"). and i'm athletic..so i don't think weight is really a problem right now. i just am so afraid of getting chubby or fat.

Well, to get accurate facts and information, I suggest you go see a nutritionist.

Other than that:
Skipping meals and taking too low of an intake of calorie will actually make your body keep the food it eats because it won't know when the next small amount of food it can use for eneergy will come in.

The BEST and only diet that will work is to eat healthy [LIMIT junk foods] like veggies and fruits & exercise regularly. And it seems like you're doing well with the exercise part. Just work on what you eat =)

You're general idea is healthy but you are obsessed too much to the point of unhealthy.

Get a good book on nutrician-eating healthy.

Or, research good nutrican-eating healthy online.

Print it out.

Stay aways from fats, trans fats, high cholestrol juck, fried foods, sweets, high-caloric foods, etc.

Use common sense. Research and you'll get all you need to get a good start.

Don't be so silly.
Have a cookie once in a while.
If you're TOO healthy, You're body won't be able to cure itself properly when something goes wrong.

Eat organic foods. Natural foods will keep you healthy and in shape as long as you're active also.
