I'm a 16 year old overweight girl.....?!
Question:
I'm a 16 year old overweight girl.....?
I want to loose weight, but nothing works. Every woman on my mother's side of the family has hypothyroidism (google it) and I show practically ALL of the symptoms of the disease from constant weight gain to my hair thining and falling out : (
yet my doctor keeps telling me that I test negative, what should I do? Im mean I am a cheerleader and work out 2-4 hours every other day, so why do I weigh 220 when I'm 5'4.5''??? It's not even muscle, it's FLAB! Uhg....

Answers:
If you work out and do not eat enough then your body goes into starvation mode. You need to get about 1800 calories/day..count them. Make sure you get at least 80 grams of protein per day.. just over 25 grams per meal..count those too and add a complex carb.
I just started using the readiant recover program for a problem like yours. It's a program for 'Sugar Sensitive' people. We hold on to weight because our bodies don't process food like everyone elses. You can check out their web site at: http://www.radiantrecovery.com... I think it could help you. Give it a try. Buy the book or borrow it. The program is working for me (no I don't work there) I just like it so I'm recommending it. Oh I should mention that I don't pay any money for it. I just bought her book for $14, but you can get them cheap on ebay. The web site has a support group for anyone, it's free.
