WHAT ARE THE MAIN FACTORS THAT ARE EFFECTING TEENAGE GIRLS DIETS? 

HOW ARE THESE CONTRIBUTING TO EATING DISORDERS AND OBESITY LEVELS?
















Who am I?

Danie Mills currently in Sixth Form at Chancellor's school,  in Hertfordshire. I am eighteen years of age and I'm sure Facebook will tell you the rest. Like most girls my age I try to balance going out, seeing friends, family and the boyfriend whilst trying to pass the dreaded A-levels (chemistry, biology and geography-if your really nosey) to get my into my university of choice.... it honestly is a lot more stressful than it sounds. 

What is this site and what is it for?

Like the majority of teenagers out there I love filling my brain with knowledge about celebrity culture, when really I should be perfecting my Born-Haber and Krebs Cycle.
Yet along with my fascination with the celeb race I have an explosive passion for nutrition and have always wanted to be a dietitian.

For many years I have been fascinated with the outrageous diets celebrities endure to attain their perfect bod, and the slightly insane workouts they put themselves through.  Additionally I am endlessly on various websites looking at sites to do with nutrition, diets,health and exercise (with twitter sitting their harmlessly on a next door tab.)

I have been able to fuel my burning passion for this topic, by undertaking an extended project for the past year and have been able to formulate my own investigation along with undertaking my own research, to reach a final conclusion. During my journey I have constructed my own questionnaires and question and answer session with teenage girls my age to provide myself with primary data,whilst reading a variety of material on the internet and in books for secondary data. 

This project has opened up many new horizons and has developed my knowledge on a variety of topic hugely.  I have been engrossed in my project ever since starting it and am proud to produce this site as just a part of the project.
