Teens: what did YOU eat today?

Quote  |  Reply
I'm kind of copying the oh so popular topic found in the food forum. This is different, though: for teens! I think it's pretty interesting to see what we teenagers eat, and this will kind of give the chance for teens to see what other healthy foods they can add to their diet.. I sure know that my diet needs improvement XD

Oh, and the same rules as the one in the other forum applies.. especially do not post if you are not eating enough. Nobody wants to see it, and you're only hurting yourself in the long run; believe me, I found out the hard way.

I'll start!
breakfast: cheerios, a yogurt, & and orange
lunch: a turkey sandwich (i love low carb bread! really.) an apple, another yogurt, &wheat thins
after school: a peanut butter sandwhich on whole grain & an orange
dinner: probably light soup & a salad or something!

don't be shy XD

97sbee: Why are you eating so little????? An adult female shouldnt eat less then 1200 calories and a female teenager should never eat less then 1500 calories since you are still growing

the op posted this : .Oh, and the same rules as the one in the other forum applies.. especially do not post if you are not eating enough. Nobody wants to see it, and you're only hurting yourself in the long run; believe me, I found out the hard way.

and plus one of CC's posting guidlines states: Promotion of starvation diets or habits that exhibit signs of an eating disorder ("pro-ana", "pro-mia", etc.) is prohibited.
I planned on exactly 1200calories. I wasn't aware 1200calories wasn't enough! I would never try to promote a pro-ana diet since I joined this site to try and help me overcome anorexia...I'm really sorry should I delete my post? I really thought 1200 was healthy. :/

ornellanicole2007:
no need to attack.
a lot of us have misconceptions about food and nutrition. that's why we come here to talk with other people and learn from another.

97bees:
it's okay. it's understandable that you would think that 1200 calories would be acceptable. that's what is recommended for weight loss for adults. teens should eat 1500.
