[quote=Anonymous]What you should do really depends on where you are with your eating and knowledge.

Do you know you have bad habits and/or eat too much?  Then, I would suggest starting with just eating less and make better choices.  Tracking what you eat is a pain, and for many people like me, easily lead to obsessive behavior.

Do you have no real idea how many calories you are eating?  Then definitely weigh  and track what you eat it for a week.  It might be eye opening for you to see where you calories come from.  From there, decide your caloric goal and decide if you want to try to track calories or use a tool like weight watchers.

Walking is great because it is easy on the body and therefore it is often easier for people to maintain.  But personally I find weight lifting and more intensive exercise actually make me crave healthier foods.  Maybe it’s a mental thing- I do not want to undo my hard work.  At your age, building muscle will really help.  So if you do not want to go to a gym, you could just add in some squats and push-ups. Arm dips, etc. But the most important thing is finding exercise that you will stick to.  [/quote]
