Anyone else notice 50% of the time, poeple on Y!A health are young teens worried about there weight ?!

So.?.? Is that a bad thing.?.? Some of the teens are overweight, and feel that they can get the answers on here that they want, which there is alot of good advice. I hate it though when I read about those who are already at an unhealthy weight asking what to eat to lose more..Theyre already anorexic for crying out loud!! And that scares the crap out of me.. I dont understand why they do that to themselves.. Grrr!!! I remember asking a few weight questions myself. Plus, whats the deal with teens worrying about their weight.? Its what diet and fitness part is for isnt it.?Health Question & Answer

The key for losing weight is simple - consume less and move more - the issues appear when we actually try to put that into practice! There are a lot of opportunities to fail in the real world don't you think.?! I discovered some excellent advice by learning from the web portal in the box below, they have a lot of tips, I lost 10 pounds by using their methods.Health Question & Answer

well, that means the other 50% are not young teens.
it's the same isn't it.? whether some one is 14, 18, 20, 40, or 60.
now when young teens are being obsessive over being the thinnest person ever, thats a problem, but some people have weight issues that need to be dealt with.
plus, to each their own. if they'll be happy losing weight, let them be happy.
but anyone under the age of 16 really should not worry.Health Question & Answer
