So to start off I'm going to say I've struggled with self harm, low self esteem, blah blah blah. All the common teenager stuff. I have recently discovered that working out relaxes me a lot, and I'm also trying to cut things like chips and pop out of my diet. Now I've been researching some healthy snacks, and some exercises from some very... extreme sites, and I'm starting to wonder; will I start out with healthy amounts of food and slowly slip into something more serious? I'm afraid that I'll slip into an eating disorder. Any thoughts on ways I can avoid this?

So I have decided to take tennis lessons this summer and join a tennis club.

Do any of you play tennis?  Is it fun?  Did you meet lots of interesting people like members of the opposite sex?

Is tennis good exercise?
