Teens: would you consider yourself healthy?

Would you make any lifestyles changes if you could?

my family eats very unhealthy. even though I'm thin, i don't feel energized. I'd rather eat carrots with ranch, then say cookies.

    Nope :( But I do make some smart choices. I plan on losing more then 50 pounds even if it takes a while I want to more then anything...

    I'm pretty healthy. I have the occasional candy or junk food, but I don't drink soda ever really, and I eat mostly organic. Though around the holidays, I eat so much junk.

    Along with that, I am a fitness freak and am always exercising in some sense of the word.

    I don't think I'm terribly healthy, my family doesn't eat very well either. I'd like to be able to have a better diet that would allow me to be full and energized in a natural, healthy way.

    At first I thought yes, then I realized hell no.

    When it comes to eating, I eat beyond the point of being full. I eat when I'm bored. I eat junk more than 'real' food.

    I over exercise. I run to relieve stress, which I have a lot of, and so I end up running a couple hours a day. Which is really starting to kill my hip bone. I run anyways.

    BMI and weight wise, I'm perfect. But my stomach is stretched and my legs are about to freaking fall off and I'm

    Really

    Really

    Unhealthy.

    Do you communicate your self in good shape? No, yet i seem solid besides. in case you do no longer, then what's your concept of in good shape or skinny? i do no longer care approximately being skinny. Toned could be large. Are you pleased with your physique? definite! :) in case you're no longer, what might you regulate approximately it? no longer something what's your wellness plan/objective? i might elect to be waiting to advance greater, and run speedier and longer with out dropping my breath. Do you have your summer time physique purely for the summer time or all 3 hundred and sixty 5 days? I under no circumstances have a 'summer time physique'. i seem the way I do all 3 hundred and sixty 5 days. Do you think of that teen magazines, like 17 magazine, use sufficient "genuine women" or would desire to there be greater? i do no longer study 17 magazine. maximum fashions in magazines are Photoshopped. yet purely because of the fact a woman is skinny, does not recommend she isn't a 'genuine woman'. once you're a human you're a 'genuine woman'. BQ: I easily have a 26in waist, would desire to i attempt to get right down to 25in by potential of summer time? in case you desire to, pass forward! yet i think of 26 is a length to be satisfied approximately.

    i have grown up in the same situation and taken a ridiculous number of efforts to stay healthy in very unhealthy surroundings. it was actually easier for me once i went vegetarian, since my family had to accept that i would have to make my own meals anyway. so now i'm able to cook all the veggies and fruits i want! and i dance five days a week if that counts, in addition to other less regular exercise methods.

    No, but I'm not unhealthy either, I think.

    I'm not like someone that eats organic... I'll pay $.69 for bananas instead of $1.20 haha. And I love hamburgers, ribs, and pizza.

    No. I'm average but I think I'm a fat person at heart because I never exercise and I eat a lot.
