x_x; Hiya, I'm Emerson and I'm 13 yrs old (just turned 13 a couple days ago) and was wondering. I haven't eaten a sweet thing in two years. (Such as candy, cakes, pizza, junk food.) Everytime I was offered some candy from a teacher at school, I usually say I don't eat candy. I have been eating healthy for about two years, I run two miles a day (but during the winter now, I do about 30-1 hour of DDR with the very fast songs like Max 300.) I'm around 4'10, about 80-90 pounds. ;-; Is it safe to eat what I used/like to eat? >_>;
EDIT : If you guys are wondering why I only eat healthy is because of those speeches about junk food in school years ago which kinda...D:
If going the healthy route is fine for you, then so be it. Check with your pediatrician to ensure youre within good health, and if you're really that concerned and questioning your health, ask to speak with a nutritionist.

whoa we have really similar stats! I'm newly 13, 4'10" and 85 lbs. lol.
There's nothing wrong with occasionally eating junk food however, do not let your age be an excuse or cover for eating un healthily. Bad habits tend to follow people into adult hood. Me personally, I allow myself 1 sweet thing per day (maybe a cookie or a serving of ice cream), but I'm pretty careful about not over doing it. You'll find that eating healthier is far more rewarding in the long run than filling up on junk.
