INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Eat foods from all five food groups every day. Don't substitute one kind of food or supplement for another. You'll get all the vitamins and minerals you need if you eat a varied diet. If the options in your home or at school are always the same, start working on getting some variety. Get plenty of fresh vegetables and fruits. Eat them raw and cooked. Juice lacks fiber and can't provide all the benefits of whole produce, so don't replace your eating with drinking. Get protein every day. If you're a vegan or a vegetarian, make sure you get adequate amounts of protein-rich foods like rice and beans, hummus, tofu, and nuts. Eat whole-grain carbohydrates for energy and minerals. Yogurt, cheese, cottage cheese, and milk are delicious and provide essential calcium. Homemade food is almost always lower in calories than frozen or prepared food. Tell your parents you want to pack your own lunches. If your parents buy a lot of take-out, ask them if you can all start taking turns making dinner several nights a week. Your parents are going to worry if they think you're starving yourself. They're less likely to worry if they can see that you are eating well and getting interested in food preparation. Skipping meals will make you gain weight. Make sure you eat breakfast, lunch, and dinner, with some healthy snacks in between. You will overeat if you get too hungry. Try keeping a few snack bars, nuts, apples, and other filling snacks in your locker or backpack so that you can eat when you're hungry. Make sure you get breakfast! Skipping breakfast will make you hungry and low-energy. It may even lead to weight gain. Don't consume these things every day, but don't eliminate things you like completely. Treat sugary drinks and snacks as treats. Consume them as a special occasion. If you get out of the habit of eating sugar all the time, you won't crave it as much. Alcohol is very high in sugar, and it's best to avoid it if you're trying to lose weight. If you eat when you are stressed or distracted, you might eat too much or eat the wrong things. Try paying attention when you eat. Eat slowly so that you notice yourself filling up. Start eating when you're hungry, and stop eating when you're full. Try tasting every bite you take. Eat with your family. Eating with people you like can help you eat the right way. Most restaurants will serve you more than you need to feel full. Dieting can actually make you gain weight. Most diets will cause you to lose weight at first, then gain it all back. The best way to have a healthy weight is to eat a healthy diet, get ordinary amounts of physical activity, and feel fine about your body and your habits. Avoid any crash diets that claim you can lose a lot of weight at once. Never take laxatives, skip meals, vomit, or take weight loss pills to lose weight. It's hard to calculate your own correct weight, because everyone's healthy weight is different. You can calculate your BMI, which is how you find out if your weight is correct for your height, but the BMI fails to factor in things like your genes and your growth. You can talk to your doctor during an ordinary doctor's appointment. Talk to your pediatrician, who has a record of your weight over your whole childhood, and ask if you are an ordinary weight for your age. You might also ask: "I'd like to lose weight. How can I do this safely?" Your doctor might refer you to a nutritionist who can give you advice. When you stress about food, you make worse eating choices. If you worry too much about your weight, your calorie intake, and eating the "right" foods, you may make worse and worse eating choices, and even develop an eating disorder. To strike a positive balance, try eating healthily but having the occasional treat. If you overeat, don't beat yourself up. Let it go.

SUMMARY: Eat a variety of foods. Make food at home. Eat regular meals. Limit your soda, alcohol, and candy. Eat mindfully. Beware of dieting. Talk to a doctor or nutritionist. Don't worry.

INPUT ARTICLE: Article: Compliments are one of the most important parts of romantic relationships. They show your partner that you appreciate their efforts and make you two grow closer. Don't hold back on the compliments. If your partner does something that impresses you or looks especially good, tell them! Be specific with your compliments. Rather than saying, "You look nice," say "That dress looks amazing on you." This shows that you're being observant. Remember that compliments don't just have to be about looks. Saying, "You're such a great cook" after dinner is another flattering compliment. This is another way to show your appreciation for what your partner does. People love feeling appreciated, and knowing that you notice the things your partner does for you will bring them closer to you. Don't hesitate to thank your partner whenever they do something for you. Even thanking your partner for mundane tasks like taking out the garbage works to show appreciation. Always make your appreciation genuine, without any sarcasm or sounding like a backhanded compliment. Don't say something like, "I'm glad you finally remembered to do the dishes after dinner tonight." This sounds sarcastic. Simply say, "Thank you for doing the dishes." Physical touch is a huge part of attraction. Take as many opportunities to build this attraction as you can. Hold their hand when you're walking together. Give them arm touches when you're talking. Kiss their forehead randomly. These little touches help build the intimacy between you two. When you start off, don't make any of your touches sexual. You can build to that. Start by just establishing a physical connection between you and your partner. Remember that if your partner ever tells you to stop touching them, listen to them. Sometimes being straightforward is the best approach. Don't make your partner guess what your feelings are. Tell them directly that you love them. Hearing that will bring your partner closer to you. Find creative ways to tell your partner you love them. Leave little love notes around your home for them to find. Send a random text message. Change it up to keep them guessing. Follow up saying, "I love you" with a kiss or a good hug.

SUMMARY:
Give your partner compliments often so they feel appreciated. Thank your partner whenever they do something for you. Touch your partner to build physical intimacy with them. Tell your partner you love them.
