| Ugh asks: |
Hello. I am 15 years old, 6 foot 6 inches, and weight 310 pounds. I know this is very unhealthy. But about a week ago I went on a diet (watching my carbs) and running/jogging 2 miles a day. I am now down to 303 in less than a week and I feel great now. I was wondering if you think this is healthy and if I should continue, or if I should do longer jogs? Thanks =) |

2 miles is impressive. If it is reasonable to do more, then go ahead, but it isn't necessary at this point. |

| adam32m says: |
You are most likely imagining it, though your arms can get a little bit bigger (or at least more defined) after you lift. |

im 15 years old, and i have trouble getting to sleep, even if im dead tired i cant sleep till about 2 am. i have tried afew diff methods for afew months at a time and none have worked for me. im wondering is it normal for me to sleep at 2 or 3 am and wake up at 11 or 12 ? |
| adam32m says: |
9 or 10 hours is too much sleep, it is better to get close to 8. Your body is used to those hours, so it will be really difficult to just change it. It is more of a lifestyle change. Cut out whatever keeps you up that late and/or get a reason to get up earlier. Personally, I once had a job that required me to get up at 5:30 in the morning. It was exhausting enough that I need to go to be by 9:30 at night, but before and after that job I stay up later. |
