Hey.. ur the same age for me…. For exercise I find the funnest thing for me to do is stretch… I took dance for a couple years and stretching helps you seriously SOOO much to be more flexible and helps with other workouts.. And I used to b able to do splits, then stopped practicing and couldnt do them, after 2 days of stretching I can do them again and go all the way down to the floor….Stretching makes me feel really, fresh or something like that….. also find a low bench or coffee table or something and put it in front of your TV, stand with your back to it and bend down till you can supprt your body by holding onto the coffe table.. oput your feet in front of you and lower yourself up and down,…. for eating I usually drink LOTS of water (helps clean your body of toxins and helps if you want sone weight loss) and I am a vegetarian… meat just makes me feel gross and lazy.. I eat alot of raw fruit and boiled egs ( they help us grow cuz the protein) and tahts about it

I need a quote that relates to this by a famous person. Thanks for you’re help!

Question by *: How is this for healthy eating?
I have an exercise plan, but I need to make sure my eating is healthy enough.

Breakfast: I normally have weetbix (97% wholegrain) with milk, and little sugar.

Lunch: I am often in town around lunch, so I will have a meat sandwich or sushi.

Dinner: Whatever mum cooks, so often meat and veg.

Would sushi be a healthy eating option?
