Eating Enough

I eat around 2,00 calories a day I am a 17 year old male that weights 140 pounds and is 5'10, also I exercise an hour a day out of 4 days of the week. It is all cardio, during that time I run close or 6 miles. I been getting these craving for sweets and have been hungry lately. It has happen during December but it is mostly calming down. Also when I get these craving I tend to eat a lot and just want them to stop any ideas on how to make them stop.

ps. Is it right to count calories  for my age or just eat healthy when i am hungry. When I do not count calories I do not eat helthy and just eat crap and I want to stop that. Does anyone have any ideas?

Thanks for anyone wh is willigly to help me

Sounds like you are at a correct weight and you need to maintain weight not loose it.  Nothing wrong with keeping track of calories but you may need to up the number of calories to find the right balance based on your matabolisim and excercize leval. The important thing is to add healthy calories. Before working out eat a snack based on healthy carbohydrates grains, friut or an energy bar. a bowl of unsweatened cereal with friut and skim milk or a sandwich made with whole grain cereal lettace tomatoe and turkey with a small amount of lite mayo. if you get hungry after your work out enjoy a friut yogurt or some nuts and dried friut. healthy carbohydrates are released slowly and help releave cravings.

You shouldn't have to count calories if you're a healthy weight, very young, still growing and very active.   If you're craving sweets and you're hungry you're not eating enough.  You may find this link useful to illustrate what I mean.... http://www.kidsnutrition.org/bodycomp/bmiz2.h tml entering your stats and reading off the result for 'moderate' to 'very active'.... you get a number of between 3230 and 3750.... far below what you've been eating.   In a nutshell, it's very difficult for you to overeat.   If you're hungry and craving sweets, eat something... doesn't have to be sweets if you don't want it to be, a sandwich will work just as well.  But a bar of chocolate isn't 'junk' either.

A good way of looking at a balanced diet is to aim to get 80% of your daily calories from healthy wholefoods (fruit, veg, meat, fish, grains, oils etc) and the other 20% from 'fun' foods like chocolate, fries or cakes.   There are no bad foods, only bad diets.
