YOUR DAILY NUTRITIONAL NEEDS One of the biggest mistakes that people make when dieting is to cut their food intake to an unhealthy and sometimes fatal level. Dieting can indeed be fatal, so you must take special care to get sufficient calories when dieting. This is especially true for teens who need specific nutrients for growth. Your doctor can help establish a healthy calorie level for you. Everyone's level is different, which makes dieting so complicated. At our sister site, Diet Bites, we recommend that a dieter does not go below 1,200 calories per day. The body needs that much just to function.
For example, every time that you raise your hand in school to wow your teacher with a really boss answer, expends calories. When you wink at that special someone or laugh or cheer or yell at your cat for coughing up that hairball, you expend calories. Every time you talk, or walk or sneeze, you expend calories. Even while you're asleep you burn calories. Here at Diet Teen, we have provided a few safe dieting plans where you don't have to count calories. You may want to check those out. They are healthy diets, and easy. But best of all, they provide the daily nutrition that you need to raise that hand! |
