90 piece dinner set image
Q. Okay here is some more details:
I am 5'1", 112 pounds, and 15 years old. I know I am in a healthy BMI range, but I am still considered chubby by my most my family and friends. I am a vegetarian, and I exercise (run for 1 hour) 5-6 days a week. However, things like snacks and desserts always seem to ruin the meals I have tried to eat clean throughout the day. I try to eat very moderately and clean. An example of something I might eat throughout the day would be:
Breakfast:
1. Smoothie (strawberry, banana, soy protein, papaya juice)
Snacks:
1. Trail mix
2. Goldfish
3. Cheez- its
Lunch:
1. Tuna with cottage cheese, red onion, pickle, a little mayo (I eat tuna and shrimp, no other meat or seafood)
Snacks:
1. Trail mix
Dinner:
1. Pasta
or
2. Baked potato
I know I don't eat a lot of protein, but a lot of times for dinner I will eat black beans and rice, or a quinoa salad, or something in that general area. I know I'm only 15, but I'm tired of being ridiculed every day, and hating myself for it. I've been to a sports nutritionist for lacrosse, running, and diet, and she said to eat around 1,700 calories, but I think that's way to much even though I probably eat more. I want to lose 15 pounds at least, and I'd like to in possibly 1-3 months. I don't care if you think it's not healthy, I just need help and advice. Please anything positive you might have to contribute, go for it.
Thank you for all your help! :)

Hey, so i'm basically in the same boat as you. I am 5'2" and 117 lbs. a week ago i was 122lbs.. So i know how we can do this girl! And im not anorexic at all, im doing this the healthy way. I know what its like, we're petite, so a few extra pounds makes us look chubby.. First, your diet.. Avoid eating those cheez its and processed foods.. You are eating all carbs right now practically, that is no good. The trail mix is ok but heres what you have to do, i swear by this!
1. Diet.
You need to eat 4 meals a day that are approximately 300 calories each. You need to spread these meals out by 3-3.5 hours. This will keep you energized throughout the day so you wont Be starving. For breakfast i would suggest 1 piece of fruit like some cherries, grapes, avoid bananas cuz those are hawaiian foods and they will give you a chubby hawaiian body. Eat grapes, blueberries are great. Pick a fruit. ( thise are carbohydrates) then eat some protein, maybe some scrambled eggs, with chopped up green peppers or other vegetables on them. With some cheese on it (which is fat, like an omlet.) try to incorporate protein, carbs, and fat into each meal. If you have a snack ever, make sure it is protein and a carb. Like a handful of blueberries with some almonds.
2. After diet comes exercise, make sure you do cardio for 25-30 minutes per day. Go on the treadmill or go out running, run on the spit even. Do 100 jumping hacks a day.
1.) abs= Do 100 sit ups, 3 times per day. Maybe put your feet under the couch for support and do these, do 100 crunches once a day. Do cycling crunches if you want. An ab exercise that will give you really flat abs is when you lay on your back, put your legs in the air staight at a 90 degree angle, and then lower them not all the way to the ground, then raise them again. Repeat as many times as you can.
2.) arms-do as many push ups as you can, start with 20 a day and work yourself up, i do 5 sets of 20, so 100 per day.
3.) legs, butt and hips- a major one for shorter people who seem to accumulate more fat around the thigh and butt/ hip area..
Ok do weighted squats holding 10-15 lb weight, do 3 reps of 20. If you have no weight, do 50 squats with your feet turned forward, and 50 ballet style ones (plies).
Do some walking lunges, like 50 a day.
Do some leg lifts, 50 each side.
Do 100 butt ups to work that butt. Lol.
3.) stress and sleep- get plenty of sleep and stress less. Stress and worrying makes people gain weight sometimes. And makes youre skin bad, so dont worry be happy:) try to not focus on your looks or obsess and you'll immediately look even better than u already do. I'm sure ur very attractive:) and good luck to you, hope i helped:)

Marley
I'm throwing a little party for my 16th, just me and about ten other people hanging out at my house, the theme is Moulin Rouge and I'm going all out. For dinner, what are some good french foods that I can serve? I got crepes to make so far, but thats about it. If you don't count french fries and french toast... I mean.. yeah, but its supposed to be dinner and I want something yummy, and easy to make. Any ideas?

Tomato Tarte Tatin Recipe
By Rebecca Franklin, About.com
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours, 25 minutes
Ingredients:
* 1 sheet frozen puff pastry, thawed
* 2 pounds plum tomatoes, cut in half lengthwise (substitute any low-seed variety)
* 3/4 teaspoon salt
* 1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
* 3 tablespoons granulated sugar
* 3 tablespoons red wine vinegar
* 1/4 cup extra virgin olive oil
* 2 cloves garlic, chopped finely
* 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh, chopped parsley
* 1 1/2 teaspoons fresh, crushed rosemary
* 1 tablespoon oil or butter, for greasing ramekins
* Special equipment:
* 4 non-reactive, 3- to 4-inch baking ramekins or individual tart pans
Preparation:
Preheat the oven to 275 degrees. Working on a clean surface, roll the puff pastry dough into 4 5-inch circles and chill.
Season the tomatoes with the salt and pepper and set aside. Sprinkle the sugar into a large, ovenproof skillet set over medium heat. Shake the pan occasionally to move the sugar until it melts and turns light golden brown. Deglaze the pan with the red wine vinegar, scraping up the caramel from the bottom of the skillet. Once the caramel is incorporated into the vinegar, remove the skillet from the heat.
Stir the olive oil, garlic, parsley, and rosemary into the caramel and pack the tomatoes into the skillet. Bake the tomatoes, uncovered, for 2 hours. The tomatoes are done when they are slightly shrunken with wrinkled skin.
Raise the oven temperature to 400F. Grease the individual tart pans with 1 tablespoon oil. Using a slotted spoon to drain any excess juice, transfer the tomatoes into the greased tart pans. Fit the chilled pastry circles onto the pans and press the edges of the dough tightly down the inside of the pan, between the tomatoes and sides of the pans.
Place the individual tarts on a baking sheet and bake them for 12 to 18 minutes. The tarts are finished when the dough has puffed up and turned light golden brown.
This tomato tarte Tatin recipe makes 4 individual servings.
