14 year old diet & weight help

You shouldn’t be thorwing up after you eat becuase that can cause major damage to your body and even death. Im 14 and weight around 125 lbs and all I do is try to eat healthy and stay on a diet that works for me here is some stuff that I do.

1. Drink a glass of water beofre every meal, it helps fill you up so you don’t over eat. Also drink a cold glass of water every morning, your body burns calories by cooling down the water to make it useful to your body.

2.Eat slowly, it takes your brain 20 minutes to relize you’re full, so if you eat fast you’ll over eat.

3. NEVER crash diet. Don’t go under 1200 calories a day. It will slow down your metabolism and you won’t be able to get all the nutrients you need in one day. And once you start to eat normally again you’ll regain all of the weight you lost immediately.

4.Don’t be lazy. Stay active if it means doing jumping jacks while watching t.v. or doing laps around the coffee table, just keep yourself moving.

5.Right after eating pop a piece pf cinnamon or mint gum into your mouth so you don’t feel the urge to keep picking at your food.

6.Don’t beat yourself up if you had a bad day. Listen to your body, if you want something, have it, just remember to keep it in moderation. But don’t deprive yourself, or you aren’t going to get anywhere.

7.Leave a couple of bites left on your plate when eating, you can save calories by not eating every last bite.

8. Subsitute regular foods for “diet” foods.- Skim milk or 1% for whole milk, low-fat cheese for full- fat cheese, light bread or multi-grain over regular white bread, reduced calorie yogurt over regular yogurt, or splenda for sugar.

9. Something I do personally to help me stay healthy and at a good weight is if you like to have a after school snack eat something healthy, I eat an apple and if im still a little hungry have something like a little cheese.

10. Also stay away from a lot of sugar. Try not to have over 40 grams of sugar a day. Stay aay from the cookies the candy and even the soda. If you want to drink something like soda do it in moderation, small amounts. And if you want to treat yourself once in a while with cookies or candy remember do it in moderation.
