If we feed our bodies small amounts on a regular basis (3 small meals a day with 2 small snacks), our hunger is satisfied on a regular basis. Exercise is an important aspect of controlling hunger, cholesterol and sugars. Taking a walk (exercise) actually helps curb an appetite. I was an overweight teen so I can understand how your daughter feels. Please help her to loose the weight and learn how to eat healthy foods now while she is young and can reverse any health problems. It is much easier to loose the weight at the age of 15. In the long run it is cheaper to eat fruits and vegetables. Forget about eating fast food (french fries and hamburgers). Use that money to buy healthy fruits and vegetables, whole wheat breads and lean lunch meats. Good luck and let us know how her progress goes!

Wheat grass, "Green drink" green tea(?). Listen to Tony Robbins "get the edge" disk 4. It explains everything.

Taking a walk with your daughter will more than likely change her body in such a positive way, that she herself will make the decision to change her eating habits, then she will tell you what she wants to eat & you won't waste money buying things she doesn't like.

Fruit is a + to anyones's diet and is useful when urges to snack are replace with Fruit. I don't think it's a good Idea to replace her diet with totaly vegetables. That diet needs to be incorporated Slowly. You will find that eventually transferring to a veg. diet will be less costly --and healthy. As far as sugar contents--go to Diabetes on the Web. and find out what they recommend for sugar and starch replacements. I know she isn't Diabetic but it is a good reference.

What type of ethnic foods does she like? Plan your meals around the cheaper veggies like cabbage, carrots, onions, leafy greens.. Also, check out frozen produce. There are lots of good deals in many stores. I feel for you, because it's very hard to change eating habits. Here's a great smoothie recipe: 1 frozen banana 1 cup frozen strawberries 1/2 cup crushed pineapple 1/2 cup silken tofu 1 cup milk nonfat or low fat splenda or other artificial sweetner as needed 1 tsp vanilla extract -blend. You can always use nonfat dried milk in this recipe. Dont' tell her there's tofu in it.. she'll never know! Posted on 04/23/2005 | Report Spam or Abuse
