Teen weight loss is a requirement as too many teens eat so much fat filled food and exercise only minimally. Fat filled foods in schools and fast food restaurants combined with practically no physical education in schools is taking its toll on too many teens.
Combined with the pressures to gain weight, teens face an ever mounting pressure to look slender. Popular television programs, teen magazines, ads and movies all showcase slim figured young people. Overweight teens often feel hopeless in their efforts to become like the role models they observe in the media.
Teens who seek to look slender face seemingly overpowering barriers blocking them from achieving their goal. So they often resort to risky pills and eating disorders. Plus, many teens look in the mirror and think that they are simply too fat when they are actually at a healthy weight. If you are one of these young people who feel unhappy about how your body looks and are taking or planning to take drastic actions to reach an unrealistic goal you ought to see your school physiologist or locate an outside therapist. Do not fear talking with someone about how your feel.
So, as a teenager, how do you achieve and maintain a healthy body? While everyone wants a fast solution to problems that took years to nurture, the best answers are simple. A healthy diet and a regular exercise regimen will keep you fit and trim.
Puberty is a time when your body is experiencing some sweeping changes. These complicated changes taking place in your body require extra nutrition and conscientious attention. Because of this it is important that you maintain a healthy diet.
Appeals to quickly consume fast food and get on with your life's activities often develop into a habit that is tough to break. Blend this with fatty foods that come from a can provided by school cafeterias and you have a formula for fast weight gain and damage to your health. If you are uncertain about this you should watch Morgan Spurlock in his "Super Size Me" movie. He clearly demonstrates that consumption of fast food regularly results in weight gain and deterioration of body chemistry that could have dangerous consequences.
Eating healthy, well balanced meals of the right size is essential for growing teens. As a teen, you ought to spend time doing some research on the Internet about healthy diets. Learn what foods, vitamins, and minerals your body needs. Establish your caloric needs. Learn how to determine your body mass index, BMI. Healthy eating is an option. This means that you'll have to forgo some time, change unhealthy habits and develop new constructive eating habits.
The same goes for exercise. Schools are interested in following state rules and often don't have the resources to implement much beyond the minimum requirements. While they have their sports programs, physical education in the gymnasium or pool is frequently deficient in the duration, intensity, and frequency required to keep you healthy.
This means that you'll have to regularly arrange your own physical education program.
Teen weight loss is a way of living alternative. There are no quick solutions. Deciding to eat a healthy diet and to participate in regular exercise is a lifestyle you must actively work for. And, that choice won't just be for your teenage years. You must make that choice last for the rest of your life so you can retain a healthy and energetic body as long as you live.
