Young Calorie Counters

Welcome to Young Calorie Counters!  This is the area of CalorieCount where teenagers and twenty-somethings can post about anything.  There are a few simple rules that we ask all who post in this forum to abide by: 

1.  Everyone is welcome to post here.  But, if you are not one of the younger members of the community, please be respectful.  Issues affect us differently at different ages, after all. 
2.  Be careful of the information you put on the internet, avoid giving out personal information that can be used by someone for dishonest purposes.
3.  Please keep the net lingo or text talk to a minimum.
4.  Remember that the tools on CC are geared towards adults.  Please use the following links for optimal nutritional and caloric advice specifically for teens: 

• Calculator and calorie information for Teens
• Nutrition, Exercise & Weight Management for Teens
• More Nutrition & Health for Teens
• Weight Management for Kids/Teens   

5.  Have fun!  This is your place to be yourself! 
6.  If you have any problems or issues, do not hesitate to PM a forum moderator.  We are here to help! 
7.  All of the standard forum guidelines apply here, just as they do anywhere else on CC.  Please abide by them, and if you have questions about whether something is or is not a violation, PM me in advance so we can discuss.
