Saying you 'forgot' diet and exercise is the problem - eating healthy and keeping fit should be easy to accept lifestyle changes, which you can increase step by step.

Hi Jessica,

Don't be so hard on yourself, it takes time to change habits. Take a look at some of the articles in the Resource Center, there is a lot of helpful information in there to help you in your healthy lifestyle/weight loss journey.

Try setting some smaller goals for yourself - you don't have to do everything all at once. Also, make sure you are eating within your calorie range that SparkTeens has given you - a minimum of 1800 calories a day. Doing that will help get you the nutrients and calories (fuel) for your body to grow and develop. Here are some articles that you may find helpful to get started again:
