About the same for me.
17. And I weigh 114, 5 8'ish
I was probably 70's through all middle school. And progressed a little more.
I'm also 17(senior) and while my average high school lunch was a bag of chips + soda, i don't do that anymore.

No one else here knows how to cook ?
There are quite a few things that I can make that are healthy, and can be made in 25-30 minutes.
I know how to cook, I'm just lazy.
lol, I find cooking quite fun sometimes.
Now that I think about it, my only problem with cooking is cleaning up. That shit sucks dong.
Most fastfood places offer at least some sort of light alternatives. Like a little wrap or fajita or something like that. Those usually work well if you're looking for something small that probably won't make you feel sick afterwards. I personally try and go for grilled chicken burgers (w/out mayo) because they're pretty basic.I've gone with out fast food for so long, that when I have it now, it physically makes me sick... So yes, please, suggest some alternatives. I need something that's good for you, but still pretty convenient like fast food. In other words, healthy food for cheap, lazy bastards.
On another health note, if anybody has some tips on keeping my legs from getting tired when I run, I'd like to hear it. You see, I'm trying to run 5 out of 7 days in a week, and when I get to day 3-4, my legs just give out half way through the run, and I need to rest 2-3 days in a row before I get my endurance back. I don't know if it's a lack of vitamins, or what. If anybody can help me out with that, it'd be rad.
hmm...i'm 6'1'' and 11stone6 ...
bmi of 21.1
i used to be anorexic though with a BMI of 18 back when i was about 15 or so....flip, was so long ago :\
Yeah, but I can never order that stuff, because I still have the appitite of a guy who's 300lbs, so I have to order $10-$15 worth of that stuff to actually fill myself.Most fastfood places offer at least some sort of light alternatives.

Are you doing any strength training as well as cardio? I would recommend doing some on your legs because cardio alone won't build up much (if any) muscle. Building up muscle in your legs really helps and you'll notice a hell of a difference in your running endurance. Another thing I would recommend is just doing some basic leg-based techniques, like for example do some stationary sitting both before and after you run. [Where you sit up against a wall like you're pretending to sit in a chair and hold it there for 30+ seconds]. Doing anything extra that is leg oriented will help with making your legs stronger.
Try fighting the urge? Try filling up on water, it works for me sometimes.Yeah, but I can never order that stuff, because I still have the appitite of a guy who's 300lbs, so I have to order $10-$15 worth of that stuff to actually fill myself.
I'm not sure if I want to build up muscle. I think the muscle is causing the problem. My legs are extremely muscular, and strong, but they just get tired. I think I need to cut down the mass a little bit, I just don't really know how.

352 lbs???
edit - Oh nevermind, you're about 160 or so lbs. The 'stone' system is something I've never seen before
It's a UK thing really...14pounds=1stone so...yea...idunno...just easier for me to think in that kinda concept rather than thinking 160pounds or 250 or whatever...
I'm in the same situation as Joey, where fast food makes me sick, and while water helps, it doesn't keep you full. What I do when we go to McDonalds is order a chicken burger, then strip off the breaded part of the chicken. If it's freshly made, it usually peels right off. After I do that, it won't make me feel sick, and usually fills me up with something to drink.
Sleep on your stomach and don't eat after 8.
It's the same way with use and stones or grams/kg's. I hate using two different systems. I'm around 120lbs (that would be 8.5 stones about) and have a very high metabolism so I can eat all I want and not gain much - although I do work out. Although, I must say - I eat VERY unhealthy and it will probably bite me someday, although I'm surrounded by food that I don't exactly like but have no option to get anything else. I have a hamburger and fries for each meal (dinning hall, so bad fries, bad hamburger) and occasionally eat healthy foods. I have a high salt intake as well, which is bad - but I feel great
Sullivan said:Well as of right now, I can pretty much take in anything, I simply cannot gain a pound, and I am still in shape, I have a high stamina, etc. I also go dirt biking every weekend, that's pretty much my only work out every week.
%chrono trigger% said:When working out drink a protein shake 15 minutes before and immediately after to maintain muscle and to give them fuel.
