The body needs nutrition. Work on nutrition. Study up on nutrition. Then when you eat something you will know what it is for. Mmm ya, I'm eating this avocado for my hair and skin. Yes, this glass of milk for my bones and teeth. This orange for my vitamin C. This fish for my brain. So when you eat you will not think of it as guilty fat, which your body also needs. You'll be feeding your growing body. Skin cells, bones, muscles, organs. I exercise and body build not for a great body but because it spikes my serotonin and makes me feel good. The muscles and better bones are a bonus. Feeling good is all you need to have a great life. 5 small meals a day for weight loss because it boosts your metabolism, so does green tea (5 cups a day) and prevents many cancers too. If you do not feed your organs, bones, muscles and skin your body will start to shut down areas to feed others. Thus you'll feel tired, your teeth will go bad, your eyes will start to fail you. Your kidneys and pancreas will be hit very hard. If you stop eating regularly your body goes into hibernation to save itself, as soon as you start eating again you gain twice as much or more because your metabolism will slow to a crawl to save the crumbs you feed it. EAT WHEN YOU ARE NOT HUNGRY. It will regulate your body in a very disciplined way. You will not get fat if you eat the good stuff. But if you are hungry grabbing fats and sugars is what your brain will tell you to do, because it simply needs energy NOW. Discipline your body to eat when you want it to eat, the cravings will go away, the acid from starving will settle down. You won't be eating without thinking. That is a big problem for most people. Take a picture of all the food you eat. Studying it later. Do not feel guilty about anything the beginning is a learning adventure. It's better to eat more and exercise more. The body is meant to move. Move quite alot. Actually most of it's waking hours it's built to store enough energy for almost constant movement. So, move more, eat more and soon your thinking and your body will be wonderfully powerful and on the same page. Most body builders are very disciplined during the week with one cheat day. That's ok and man do they eat alot, bags of candy, steaks, deserts, huge amounts. For one thing it's great just to indulge, but because they are healthy and have alot of muscle mass and because they eat it all in one day, they're actually boosting their metabolism even further while burning off huge calories because of their fat/muscle ratio. You don't need to know that now though. Just photograph your food, and read up on it. Then exercise, sports, walking, cleaning house, anything for starters. Just do more of both. Learn your food learn your body. Start small. Eat a piece of fruit and find out what's in it, why do I need this, how will my body use this? You are young, you need a healthy body. Don't worry about the outside, think only about the inside. And remember fast food is natural. Nothing is faster than an apple or peeling a banana. Nothing is faster than a glass of milk or slice of cheese. But if you're going to Mc'D's, run there and run home. Your body is your car, it gets you everywhere, it's your computer, it directs you. It's your cell phone, it's your central communications systems. So to keep all systems running, you need to know what fuel to give it. Best of Luck and please... EAT
