Hello!
I'm a 16 year old girl and I'm looking to lose weight. I'm trying to eat healthier, but I need some help. Any foods you'd reccommend?
And what are some other things I can do to help me lose weight?
Thanks! :)

Maybe give some free advice about: Health?
My top picks:
anything whole wheat- breads, bagels, english muffins, cereal, wraps, buns, granola bars, oatmeal, etc. you'll have to start looking at ingredients and if it says, "whole wheat" first on the list then thats good.
personal favorites- crispix, wheaties, flat out wraps, any Kashi
fruits/veggies- self explanitory.. the more color the better (dark red, orange, yellow, purple, blue, dark greens)
personal favorites- all fruit, carrots, cucumber, spinich (easily can sneek into sandwhiches without tasting, romaine lettuce, tomatoes, peppers
lean meats/fish (good source of protein)- skinless boneless chicken breast, turkey breast, lean steak, fish
personal favorites- fresh salmon, tuna, grilled chicken, deli turkey, ground turkey burgers
TIP- substituting turkey or chicken in a beef recipe is healthier and can taste just as good
WATERRRRRRRRRRRRRR!!! not like vitaim water, just normal water. the best thing for a healthy meal
skim dairy- low fat cheese, skim milk, no/low fat yogurt, show churned icecream(for a treat)
personal favorites- Lite and Fit yogurt 60 calories, skim milk
my heath/PE teacher told us that if you eat less that 1600 calories a day you'll loose muscle instead of fat, so keep that inmind! Ummm.. theres a bunch of tips that can help.. like writing down what you eat. if you ever get tempted pop in some gum to keep your mouth busy.
heres sites with alot of good tips..
