Exercising regularly
Teenagers have to be active at least 60 min per day - this does not mean you only have to take part in sports or be an excellent swimmer or high jumper.
You can do anything active that gets your body moving. It does not matter if it is walking, dancing, jumping or running. As long as your heart beats faster and you get moving, it is all that matters.
Choose an activity that you are interested in and enjoy doing - if you have to participate in something where you have to force your self to take part, it is not going to last very long and before you know it you give up and are back on the couch.
Some days you will be very busy and can find it difficult to find time for 60 min of activity, but the good news is you do not have to do it all at once.
You can do it over the course of the day - taking a walk at lunch time, climbing the stairs instead of riding the elevator, throwing the ball outside for your dog.
The possibilities of activities throughout the day are endless. Here are a few fun ways in which you can be active without going to the gym https://www.mindbodygreen.com/0-10467/fun-ways-to-stay-active-no-gym-required.html
You have to start eating healthy
You cannot expect to loose weight or stay at your ideal weight by living on sweets and cake alone, unless you are one of the lucky ones who can eat whatever they want and not gain any weight..... most of us are not.
To eat healthy does not mean you have to starve yourself and live on a lettuce leaf and a glass of water per day. It means that you are getting in a selection of food that comes from the different part of the food pyramid.
If you eat a balanced diet and the correct portions and stay active, you will not only be healthy, but also loose weight or not pick up weight.
