You must get out and start exercising. Because you are young, your weight loss will be easier and quicker than it will be as you get older. Eat a diet rich in fresh vegetables, fruits, and lean white meats. Avoid all starches, red or fatty meats, and oils. No junk food at all. Substitute fat free/ sugar free treats for other sweets, so that you can feel happy when you need a sugar fix, but at the same time, you are not killing yourself. There are so many great food products for dieters out there, the variety is great, best thing to do, read the labels on the backs of all store bought foods. You want zeroes in the cholesterol, sat. fat and trans fat column. There is NO real difference between trans and saturated fat. Both are bad. Get under 6 grams of Sat. fat and 0 in the trans fat and cholesterol and those are the prepared foods that you can enjoy. Once you get in the habit of reading labels, you will be a pro in no time at picking out foods that are good for you. Remember though...you must EXERCISE....walking is the best, use small light handweights and just walk, hit the hiking trails, nature trails, a track at school, do the mall (without stopping) about 4-5 times, just move. It s essential. Drink lots of water, avoid Pop, even the diet sodas. Water washes out excess salt in our bodies and keeps us hydrated and feeling fuller longer. You can do this...this isn t punishment, you are making a choice and it s a good one. Stick with it, in 6 months you will look and feel quite different.
You re just in time to stop this trend otherwise you re facing diabetes, heart trouble, high blood pressure which can lead to stroke heart failure or both by th time you re thirty. stay away from sweets, fried foods and sugary drinks and snacks. cut down on dairy products and exercise. A brisk half hour walk every day does wonders. When you feel hunger pangs drink water and eat fruit. And there are alot of fat free and sugar free foods to choose from. Don t be discouraged. Weight loss is quick in the first couple of weeks then it stabilises. tha when ostart to lose the real fat. stick with it. Your health is at stake...
Generally, overweight as a youth means overweight as an adult. More than that, the adult seems to get a higher percentage of fat than the kid had.It is supposed that the main culprit is bad dietary habits that are never unlearned as an adult.Life expectancy can be reduced by 20-40 years, and a never-ending rash of diseases, like diabetes.How to lose weight? Very simp[le - STOP EATING! There is no other solution. NEVER eat anything that was not raw before YOU cooked it. McDonald s is off limits because YOU didn t cook it! No potato chips, nothing that was processed (cheese, canned goods) - only get raw vegs and fruits and meats (no more than 4 oz s of meat per day), and get off you butt and exercise - only if it is walking around the block.Now, here s the killer - This is NOT temporary activity that you abandon after you drop a few pounds. This is what you have to do for the rest of your life!Not willing to do that? Then you re gonna be a tubbo all your life, and die early. NO EXCEPTIONS. This is so important I repeat it - NO EXCEPTIONS!There are no pills - YOU have to stop shoving crap into your mouth, and get up off your butt and move around a bit. NO EXCEPTIONS! Ron.
exercise like 10 min a day and watch your calories that really all it is THE CALORIES :) it worked for me
My son s doctor said it is the equivalent of letting you ride in a car without a seat belt. This puts you at great risk of diabetes, and no one wants to loose their toes! It also puts you at a high risk of heart problems, and blood pressure issues.His doctor suggested not having him to try to loose weight, but to get rid of sodas, juices and packaged food, saving those for special occasions such as birthday parties. Get out of the house and away from the TV several times a week.
You could face many problems if you don t control your weight!! Diabetes, heart problems, respirtory diseases, those are just a few of the major ones being overweight can cause. You need to do more exercise, eat more fruits and veggies, switch to diet pop (or quit it all together), low fat lowcarb foods, plenty of protein! And drink lots of water every day! At least 8 large glasses! I carry a bottle with me every day! Good luck!carla
hate to be the one to break it to you, but.. type 1 and 2 diabetes , high blood pressure, joint problems, are just a few things that you could be looking forward too, don t get me wrong, it is not to late, it is not to late, plenty of people have come though this, and lived happy long lives, but it s going to take some deliberateness on your part,taking it easy and doing what s easy is what got you there. now i would caution on too much too soon, just try doing something good for your self each day, eat an apple instead of a Twinkies, walk some place instead of drive, wake up 10 min early and run up and down some stairs, try doing a audit on your eating habits, see what could be done by simply removing some food as a possibility (i.e. if your eating a lot of Doritos, simply cut them out), try giving up soda, treat your self with health not all diets work for all people, and some diets only can take you so far, do your research, enjoy the process, do not give upoh and the health of a body rides on 4 tires physical, mental, spiritual, and emotional, don t let ether get too low or too inflated in your new life style changing process
one would be being overweight the rest of your adult life. not to mention joint and back pain, cardiovascular problems , high blood pressure , blood sugar problems and those are just to name a few !GET UP AND MOVE !! eat right and get a good nights rest and repeat !
I ll deal with your question. Some of the repercussions of childhood obesity are type 2 diabetes, adult obesity, pediatric hypertension (high blood pressure), increased risk of heart disease, increased stress on weight-bearing joints with resulting pain and/or joint disorders, lower self-esteem, problems with peer relationships, and possible social and pshychological issues.Speak to your doctor, who can help you and refer you to a nutritionist. It s easy for us to say Hey, eat right and exercise but it s not that easy to do and no one s telling you anything in detail. Right now, you need personal and individual attention and guidance to know what and how much to eat, what foods to avoid to eat less of and how to become more active. What exercises you should be doing or what outdoor activities would be good for you. There are summer programs at the YMCA that are perfect for you. You and your parents can look into that.
You need to see a doctor sweetie and get on a program that can help you. The weight is VERY hard on a young, growing body...your joints and back and feet are being asked to carry a load they weren t designed for...heart problems and other issues from being overweight can begin as well.Get on a good healthy eating plan, and regular exercise program...make a lifestyle change and keep it up! Good luck! ?
i think you meant repercussions.... you want a tip?? EAT RIGHT AND EXERCISE!!!! And everything will fall into place.
PLEASE SEE YOUR DOCTOR! NOW! I can give you all the abstract principles but you didn t get to 205 alone and you re not gonna lose it alone. You need to involve your parents and your family doctor if you can. Eat right and exercise is one thing but a dietician can help devise a plan that s right for you and support from family will help you stick to it. Please do it now.
