At your age... are you really that concerned about what you eat?

I'm pretty concerned, and I'm 13. I'm a vegetarian, but I'm doing it the healthy way, not just potato chips and salad. You know, lentils, tofu, veggies, all that. Personally, I don't think you can be too young to worry about these things.\n\nP.S. It wasn't some kind of thing where I was raised in this way. Last year I decided to make the switch, but my parents are both rapid meat-eaters who can slather ANYTHING with butter. My dad butters his croissants! (Not sure if I spelled croissant right, lol.)

I would think you are probably just eating a lot of fiber.  It does not sound unhealthy to me.

You are probably no older than early 20s (if you are, another explanation follows).  If you haven't hit your final growth spurt (16-18) then your body is still converting that food to building materials.  Once you stop growing, however, food is only used as mainainance and if you continue eating the way you do you will start to gain weight.  This also depends on activity level.  \n\nYou should try to eat healthily, not just to prevent weight gain, but because healthy eating habits prevent heart disease, bowel cancer, and all kinds of other nasty things.  And since you don't go to the bathroom that frequently, you almost certainly need more fiber!  You should be going at least once a day!\n\nOn the other hand, if you are in your late 20s or older you might have an overactive thyroid.  Do your eyes bulge a little?  Is your neck swollen?  You might want to see a doctor if you are worried about not gaining weight. \n\nAlso, junk food has no nutritive value, and you are setting yourself up for big problems later on.

I wish more questions would be made about our food today. When I was a smoker I ate a lot but it wasn't all used by my body. Now I still eat too much and it get used fully. I am thinking that the appetite hormones given to animals in the processed protein meal food is coming down in the processed meat to our bodies. I can't do much about that except move to the wilderness. Food casts are very high in the wilderness. I am aware that I eat to find an emotional balance in my body chemistry. I skip breakfast but eat for the last eight hours way too much. I know sexual activity would remove much overeating but food is cheaper than sex.

All it means is that you've got good metabolism.  Be careful, however, because it can slow down rather quickly as you go on through life, so you'll have to remember to start eating less as you grow older.

You should never go back to the way you used to eat when you hit the 80's... You have to stick to the system you followed to lose weight. I do that, I was 70 and now I linger between 49 and 53.. when I eat more (or fattening food) I go up to the 52-53 & I FREAK OUT and realize I should watch it.. I go back down to a 48-49...\nIts a lifelong battle coz WE (people who were bigger & lose weight) are always prone to gaining it all back if we dont take every bite into account.\nIts difficult but it will become your lifestyle & you'll get used to it.. \nRight now even Im in my "bad" phase (up to 52) and Im working on getting back down... it happens but YOU LIMIT IT.\nBut never think that all the celebrities who are all thin & gorgeous get there by eating doughnuts & pasta everyday =)\nGood luck

You are what you eat.\n\nIt's related to drugs/chemicals/subtances you intake. =P\n\nFood is medicine, medicine is food.

If you eat too much of these, yes, to be sure.\n\nHowever, if you eat them in moderation, and mix in vegetables, and some exercise, you should be just fine.

It depends on the types of healthy food you eat...

At your age you need not worry so much about your weight.  Just eat right and make sure you get exercise of some sort every day.

You are experiencing being a teenager. you eat almost 3 times more than an adult and that is perfectly normal. your body need it for growing healthy. Enjoy being a teen. eat as much as you want(excluding junk foods) you will be burning them all off.

it depends on your height, your metabolism, how active you are....lots of things. \nplus since you are still growing you may go through periods of time where you gain weight and then have a growth spurt. \ntalk to your parents if you are worried that you are over weight or underweight. if you are really that worried you can have your parents make a doctors appointment for you and discuss whatever anxiety you may have with your weight. \n\ni wouldn't worry about it at your age, especially if your doctor doesn't believe it is an issue. just try to eat healthy (that doesn't mean to not eat junk, just eat it in moderation) and to stay active.
