How to stay slim when old?
Hello there. This question is for the older people. I know I shouldn't be concerned right now, but I worry a lot about weight gain and being lazy when older. Right now, I am still loosing weight and once I am at my goal, I would like to stay that way forever (that's a big goal in my life). Ladies and gentlemen, how do you stay slim and healthy and especially after menopause (women)? What are some of the foods, beverages and desserts I shouldn't consume? I actually am a vegan, but even so, I still worry about it. I am now age 16, 5"6", 152.9 Ibs and exercise 6 times a week on my elliptical (1hr, sometimes 2 hours). Not only am I a vegan, but I don't consume rice, pasta, bread (very, very rare I have bread), peanuts (am not allergic), alcohol,margarine, butter, refined sugar and I do not consume fried foods anymore (probably do not eat a lot of other bad foods anymore like ice-cream). Please respond and I appreciate the answers that are given, Thanks!!!! :D

Hi there,
Good Q! Besides the other legit answers you'll hopefully get, I can recommend a good protein source (protein is filling and essential for metabolism and to help muscles recover from workouts like your elliptical workouts). It's SunButter, similar to peanut butter but made from sunflower seeds in a nut-free facility. Your question caught my eye when you mentioned you don't eat peanuts, even though you're not allergic. SunButter is great on veggies and fruits, on tortillas and in recipes (just sub it for peanut butter). You may also find it helpful to follow a few blogs that I've found helpful for overall healthy, weight-control guidance:
