Weight loss and excercise.


Question Posted Friday March 20 2009, 1:19 pm

Recently I've gained assloads of weight, and I know it's my own fault.
I was just wondering, if I cut down on snacking, no fast foods, and instead eat healthily and replace my school snack with apples or whatever, will I loose weight?
Because for breakfast I usually eat a grapefruit, for lunch I have a small sandwich and coke and then dinner is usually nutritious and healthy anyway, but I tend to snack a lot in between.
So, if I replace my school snacks with fruit and don't snack at home and don't eat fast foods, will I be able to lose weight?
Any other suggestions?

Yes you will...

I've been eating healthily for about 2 months.

Before that I would eat a few healthy things here and there and have too many snacks - like buiscuits, sweets, fizzy drinks etc

But what I then did is switched fizzy drinks to flavoured water, defiantly made sure I have 5 portions of fruit and vegetables - and for snacks I have cereal bars, seeds, dried fruit, apple crips, fruit flakes, fruit salads etc.

However eating healthily isnt only what you have to do - excerise is vital. I've taken up swimming twice a week - and I have noticed so much.
I've lost a lot of weight on my thighs, my stomach, my waist and my cheeks.

I'm eating healthy and excercing. It's safe, and fun!(swimming!)

Do this I gurantee not only will you start to look better, you will fill better about your image because you know your doing something about it. I always used to be extremley tired, but after switching to eating heathy foods, I'm never out of energy

So yes. you are right, you will lose weight

PS - Steer clear from banana's and white bread - they are full of sugar. Brown bread is tonnes healthier.

Sounds like you've got the right idea.

If you haven't changed much in your diet and the weight gain came on suddenly, it could be due to inactivity. Also, if you're taking any new medications, that could be the cause.

Do cut down on the snacking and the fatty foods. Also, after school, try some moderate exercize for thirty minutes, five days a week.
