Question #1:

Fitness and health tips?

To cut it short, what can I do to become fit and healthy because right now i am borderlining the 'obese' BMI.

I know the basics = "eat healthily, burn more calories than you consume, no fatty foods, lots of exercise". It's all easy to say on paper but for me (and this will be my 4th try) in reality i just can seem to do it.

My parents can't cook these really healthy things 'cause they take lots of time and they get in late so it has to be things that can cook easily. Plus i have school, sitting down most of the day so i'm not really that active. I'm coming to the end of my GCSEs so I have tons of work to do. I would like to be fit before october because by then it will be easier to keep it off rather than work it off.

Before the end of March, I will have a treadmill and a multi gym thing in my house but nothing else apart from an awkward position punch bag.

Anyway what SHOULD I do and what SHOULDN'T I do. Should i have a 'treat day' every so often or not? How will i motivate myself to do it? The exersise isn't so bad, it's the eating habbits, i pretty much eat nothing healthily but on the other hand i don't eat sooooooooo bad...

Btw i'm 15 and 1/2, about 5'6 i'm probably nearer 5'7 now and I way around 145 pounds and i can assure you that is not muscle..

I would like: no fat stomach and nice arms. Thank you!

Question #2:

Proofreading and Punctuation Help?

This is for a good news message for my Business Communication class. Can you proofread through it and see any changes you would make at all? Thanks! And also, can you give me ideas of how to express goodwill at the closing? I don't want to say "We" but would like to make it either neutral or stating "you" if that makes sense. Thanks!

Question #3:

Is having a fit body unattractive? Why are people so mean?

I know that health and fitness has to do with more than just weight, and weight isn't always an indicator of health, but why do so many fat people always claim that thin people are starving themselves? I have a fast metabolism, but I eat healthy and don't have any disorders. Yet people, mostly larger women, feel the need to comment on how I eat so much but stay small, and make jokes about bullimia (Which i don't find funny. Besides, I'm not deathly skinny, my BMI is 18.9, I have a butt, I have boobs). Why is it that it's wrong to say mean things about fat people, but the skinny people somehow deserve it? I have hurtful, spiteful, meanspirited things said to me for things I can't control, but it's somehow ok because I'm skinny.

Question #4:

which girl would u choose.. Guys only... 1 or 2?

Both 18 girls.
would you choose a girl who is loud, likes to party on the weekend, who enjoys the beach, who drinks, just basically the things that teenagers call 'fun' and yeah also have a good personality.
or
A girl who is funny, smart arse (in a funny way) likes clubbing but don't drink, barely go to parties, enjoy cooking, love to exercise/passion in health & fitness and also have a good personality.


P.S I'm the 2nd girl. I like clubbing (as i enjoy dancing a lot) but i never been drunk and i don't think it's on my 'to do' list either. I love cooking and I have a passion for it. I love fitness and health. I tend to just work out on the weekend instead of drinking or going to parties. I'm pretty sweet and funny and yes I'm also a smart arse. Would you date a girl who is just like me? Sorry to asked this question just thought of it.

Question #6:

Any health or fitness instructors?

It's summer (Well the sun is beating down in London), so my butt must be toned, i mean MUST BE!

Question #9:

guys if u were me.. would u... more inside...?

OK lnog story short, i'm in to fitness and health. My family dnt have a healthy lifestyle and I hate it. My mum feeds us with a large amount of food and I can tell you now that those food she gives us are not healthy. This year my new year resolution was to walk from my house to school which takes me like 1 hour and 40 minutes depends on how fast I walk.. (my mum don't know that) She hates the fact that I want to become a Personal trainer and that I want to be healthy and she knows nothing about nutrition which is really annoying cuz she thinks she knows better than me. It's been raining all week and i don't want the rain to get in the way of me getting fit since I do not eat healthy meals at home so I want to balance it by exercising. Would u still walk if you were me.. I do it everyday and been doin it for 5 weeks now.

Question #10:

Y!A is mocking me and I don't appreciate it! >:(
@J.D.: Sorry, I'm too busy procrastinating :p
@D4: Ugh, my tea leaves are way too cryptic. And I've got a wand, but I'm not sure what spell would work in this situation. But I'll definitely remember your Horntail action figure! I hear they're only a few galleons, this year!
The problem is that I've never been to Latvia, and you can only apparate to places you've been to, before. Surely you know that!
@Billet: Omg, of course you can come! I see some very tempting offers for transportation, here. Y!A may be on something, but it's pretty useful when you're in a jam.
@Kathryn W: Oh, I LOVE lamingtons! But I've never had a tim-tam, so that'll be interesting. What is it? Anyway, I'm eagerly awaiting your package. As soon as it comes, I'm gonna begin a frantic search for a fireplace!
@Violet: Oooooh, I didn't know I could get in contact with a wizard company through Y!A! How exciting! Actually, I like the looks of that offer. I may just take you up on it. I'll let you know :D

@Shelby: Why the anger? O.o I can't ride a broom all the way to Latvia. I don't have that skill and plus it's freezing!
@Felix: I just love your answer to death, hahaha!

@Pagina: Hahaha, that's hilarious! Super good advice :p

Question #11:

How to make my lifestyle healthier?

I was wondering how I could make my lifestyle a little bit more health-oriented. Usually, I go to school, and then straight from there to a sports practice. I play sports year round, so that's pretty much always a part of my lifestyle. I can drive next month, so I was thinking about waking up an hour or two earlier and going to the Y, as well as taking MMA classes after sports. I want to have ample time for homework still, but is there any other things I can add to my routine to get in more fitness? I work out on the weekends, and run pretty often. I also eat healthy, but I'm not too sure of what foods are really healthy or not, so.. any advice?

Question #12:

Question #13:

Please help me with my homework?

I have health homework and we have to describe a fitness component.
I've chosen speed.

So if any of you can be bothered, please write a definition of the fitness component that isnt too short or too long.

thanks :P
oh woops, i meant flexibility not speed :)
to 'aye, you there:)' was that really necessary?

why do u even bother

Question #14:

Is anyone else getting tired of these "how can I lose 10 pounds in 1 day" questions?

I read the diet and fitness section and there are so many people wanting to find out the easy fast method of losing weight. Not only is it ridiculous, but dangerous. People are always looking for the easy way out. Losing weight takes alot of effort, and it's a lifetime commitment. Why do you think we praise people with amazing bodies? Cause they work hard for it. (I know, there are exceptions..but those people are few). A great example is Jessica Alba, who works hard for her body.
You can't just fad diet, and expect to have a body of a God...it's a lifestyle.
We live in a diet crazed society, and it's disgusting to see how many young kids are obsessing over their weight.
I eat well and exercise. I never starve myself, and I hate when people ask me if I'm dieting. "No, I don't diet. A diet is temporary, I'm doing this for the rest of my life". I love learning about nutrition, and I try to go on yahoo to share my knowledge but get turned off by all these crazy fad diets people are trying. Start thinking about your health, and not what size jeans you want to fit into. Everything will come into place.

Please, I would like to hear anyone disagree with me. It'll be interesting.

Question #15:

Question #20:

Push up problems. What's the deal?

I've been working out for the greater part of two years, and have come a long way in terms of fitness and health. I'd say I'm a very healthy athletic person; I work out six days a week, usually cardio, and I'm constantly improving. Well, mostly improving. No matter how hard I've worked, I can't increase my push up max!

About a year ago, the maximum amount of push ups I could do was about 30. That still remains in place today. I have worked out my chest a lot of times since then, worked on my overall performance and stamina, but my problem still remains. I do them in the proper form, but my elbows just give out after about 30, and I can't do any more. WHAT can I do to get past this plateau?
