Ok, I'm not one of those shallow little ditzy teens who are all "Oh my god I need to like lose some weight before school cause I'm like, not skinny." I'm actually overweight and I want to diet and exercise for my heath in the future. I know how to eat right and all of the rules with it, but I don't know exactly what I should do to help my anemia. My mother is just retarded and refuses to buy me my prescription for an iron supplement (sorry Mom, but come on). I've been taking Vitamin C to help with metabolizing my iron, but this has never been enough and it seems I just always remain anemic (I have been since birth).
Any tips on motivation to eat right and eating for my anemia are greatly appreciated. I'm willing for this to take a while, the main issue is that I get to my healthy weight. My boyfriend already did some research for me but I want to get as many opinions as possible.
The Stats:
Age: 16
Height: 5' 4"
Weight:152 lbs
Vitamin C Intake: 500mg/12 hours
