Tammy J. Answer Your Question About Fat Burning Foods For Teenagers

How can i GAIN weight?

Ok well im 18 yrs old…i stand about 6’2” tall and weigh roughly between 175-185 lbs. Not that theres anything wrong with my weight now but i wanted to know if theres a way i can gain some weight as far as muscle mass(not fat). I have a very fast metabolism and play sports alot so i tend to burn alot more calories than i take in i suppose. My arms and legs are very skinny and im very flat chested which isnt too bad now but later when im like in my 20s and still look this skinny….that could be a problem…people would mistake me for being a teenager still. So i want to know if theres any legit way i can add some muscle mass to my frame…like workouts, food etc. Any suggestions or tips greatly appreciated
BTW i do eat quite a bit. I eat alot of cereal, bread foods, and snacks like popcorn, pop-tarts and fruits liek grapes, oranges, and strawberries but some reason i still never gain weight…could it be my metabolism or do i need to eat better?

Do you agree the following steps to stress?

Stress

1. The starting point to turn stress into success is to lessen your load. Eighty percent of the cure can come out of writing down all your cares and responsibilities in order of priority, then eliminating the least important.

2. Remember that Superman and Superwoman exist only in comics and films. Everybody has a breaking point, so recognize yours and call a halt before you reach your limit.

3. With stress comes pent-up feelings. Get them “off your chest” by sharing them with a trusted friend or counselor. This of itself can bring immediate relief and helps you to think and plan more objectively.

4. Stop fighting situations that can’t be changed. As one father told his impatient teenager, “If you would only realize and accept the fact that life is a struggle, things would be so much easier for you.” Learning to live with and get on top of struggles is what helps us grow and mature.

5. Watch your diet and eating habits. When under stress we tend to overeat—especially junk food which increases stress. A balanced diet of proteins, vitamins, and fiber while also eliminating white sugar, caffeine, too much fat, alcohol and nicotine is essential for lowering stress and its effects.

6. Be sure to get plenty of physical exercise. This keeps you healthier and helps burn up excess adrenaline caused by stress and its accompanying anxiety.

7. The ultimate answer to turning stress into success is to learn to trust God through Jesus Christ and live in harmony with his will for your daily life. God’s peace comes through accepting and trusting in Jesus Christ.
