HEALTH & FITNESS | YOUR BOD | GIRL TALK

Lose a pound, gain a pound?

 
I’m 10 years old and I just hit puberty. I know you’re supposed to start gaining weight, but I’ve noticed that one day I gain a pound, and the next I lose it. Should I be worried?

 

Puberty is a crazy stage in every girl’s life. There’s really no such thing as normal when it comes to puberty, babe, so worrying about every little thing that sets you apart from the way your friends are going through it or the way your mom went through it is needless.

 

What you’re seeing on the scale, this gain-a-pound, lose-a-pound phenomenon, is probably just slight changes in your water weight. Everyone’s body holds on to a certain amount of water to make all of the chemical processes in our bodily systems work properly. Depending on what you eat and drink throughout the day, sometimes you lose a little bit of water weight, and sometimes you gain it. Dropping a pound (or gaining a pound) every day is insignificant, so don’t fret! Your water weight could vary by several pounds each day.

MOD MOD it says a few pounds,but mine daily can range a seven pound difference! is that normal?




Hey girl, I don't know if there is a normal versus not normal here. All you need to really do is just take care of yourself. Don't sweat the numbers. As long as you're exercising and eating healthy, chances are you're just fine.

MOD!!!!
Okay, so I am 13 and have a really small bust. BUT I have wide hips. I am really skinny though, so the bone kind of sticks out and looks weird. Is there a way to hide/get rid of it? Some people tease me for it, and I'd rather be a little straighter. I'd like to have curves, but honestly it just looks unhealthy to me




Hey girl, I think you shouldn't let what other people say get to you. Your bod is just fine and growing. Instead, focus on taking care of it. The problem may just fix itself as your bod continues becoming that of a woman's.

Ok I'm on a diet and I need to burn 300 calories from now(5:30) to dinner like at 8. What is a good exercise I can do that will burn them??? I can't swim cause my pool is sooooooooooooooooooo cold!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! HELP!!!!!




Hey girl, jogging is a great way to burn calories quickly. Try going for a half an hour run. Don't sweat the specific number though. Instead, just focus on working out for 30 minutes at least three times a week — it's what's recommended for everyone regardless of whether or not they're "dieting".
