Hello everyone, I'm 16 years old and i weigh just 80 pounds.I got tired of answering people who ask me "why are you so thin?". I'm 178 cm(5'8'') tall. --------------------------------------------- --------------------------------------------- ----------------- You are 5 feet 8 inches tall and 80 pounds??!! I'd think the" people "would be going beyond "why are you so thin" and getting you an ambulance for your impending heart failure.....that is, unless you are suffering from a critical illness, and if that were the case, you'd be under CLOSE medical supervision, and would be getting medical dietary assistance. I smell bull****. If this is on the up and up, and you are at home, and you ARE NOT getting medical attention of SOME sort, someone needs to be investigated. I think I would notice if my kid was a skeleton-at 5'8" and 80 pounds, that's what you would be. Can't no amount of layering hide that mess....What do your parents/caregivers say about all this? Have you been under a doctor's care? |

I got this really cool diet journal....that's why I was looking up the calories of a Wawa muffin, haha....but so far it's neat. I don't think you can push anything on the site, and it makes sense....so....huum...I wonder if I can put it on my profile? I figure if I write down all the crap I eat, I will be shocked into eating better. So far, it's not working. I have to really get now. I was supposed to go to the store hours ago, but I'm lazy as all get out. I have to go holiday shopping and food shopping, yulk. |

I hope I have this right, I literally joined about 15 or so min. ago....and I'm 45, and have a gazillion pounds to lose....(about 70, actually-I'm 220...and I should be about 135-150 at the most). I was looking up how many calories were in the Wawa muffin with egg, cheese, and bacon that I had for breakfast....great dieting, huh?..and figured, hey, why not join..can't hurt. I am the worst dieter on planet Earth. I have a membership to a gym I NEVER use, I try to walk to work, and wind up hopping on the bus, I bring healthy food to work for snacking and wind up getting crap out of the machine (I work nights in a hospital-3 12's).....and my new doctor is gonna KILL me when she sees I made NO progress on my lifestyle change....I'm a hot mess.

In terms of calorie burning, moderate jumping is about equal to running a 10-minute mile, although calorie burning is always a function of time... Read more
