Good exercise each day is important. I suggest you can look at omega+ chia seed. This amazing whole food is the highest plant source of omega 3 and is very high in fiber. Plus a lot more. The important thing is it absorbed more than 9 times its own weight in water and will make you feel fuller faster and longer. It slows down the transfer of carbohydrates to sugars (Energy). I am sure this will help you to achieve your goals. Good luck and good health always
I used to be twelve. Trust me, I was thinking about weight then, too. In fact, most people who criticize you for worrying about it at your age probably worried about it then, too. Don t worry about it. You are a soon-to-be teenage girl; no one can blame you for wanting to tone up your stomach. You are doing the right thing by getting at least an hour of exercise everyday. Crunches are very good for your stomach. Walking is a very good exercise for your legs, too. Sit-ups are VITAL when losing weight in the stomach. I know that everyone says it, but It s true! Why do you think everyone says it? Doing a larger amount of Sit-ups and crunches every night, along with walking, will give you small, but satisfying results. Be sure to be doing cardio and areobic exercises often, because not only will they both be extremely helpful in the process of losing some weight, but they will make your body so much healthier! And, I know you are targeting your stomach. But honestly, when you lose weight, you lose it everywhere! Some exercises target the stomach area more than others, but the honest truth is that when you exercise, weight will be lost in all places. And the last thing I will say is this: EAT RIGHT! Eat tons of Fruits and veggies. If you rarely have Veggies or fruit in your house (or fruits and veggies you do not like,) tell your mom or dad to go buy some. Or go buy some yourself! =] Cut down the amount of red meat you eat, and in all, cut down the amount of ALL meat you eat. Be sure to drink plenty of water, and take deep breathes throughout the day. It may sound weird, but it has been proven that a person who inhales more oxygen throughout the day, sheds more calories. And one more source of help: Keep a food journal! Write down EVERYTHING you are eating throughout the day. As easy as it sounds right now, it may prove itself to be hard. To make it easy, carry a small notepad or journal around with you when you eat, so you can easily write your food down. If you eat lunch at school, you can either bring the notepad to school, or you can write the food down when you get home. But be sure to keep track of the food you eat.
Do not starve your self(it never works, although that s the first thought that crosses anyone s mind when thinking to lose weight)Eating more frequently, and in small servings, can prevent over-eating.
