How do I lose weight

i'm 13 too. i'm 5'6 & 133 lbs. i believe that i am overweight also.
but i learned in p.e. that it's not just overweight, normal, etc. it also ahs to dowith your body type & build. some people are tall and very thin, others have a muscular build, etc. there's specific names but i don't remember them.

@ the beginning of this summer i weighed 145 lbs. during the summer i started to diet with my step sister. all we did was cut out most junk food. we would slip sometimes. which is why we didn't loose so much. 12 lbs in total just about for each of us. we tried to cut out all junk food but it's REALLY hard.
we also cut out some carbs that we were eating. so if we wanted a snack when we came home from school, we would have an apple or salad instead of pasta.

what also helped me alot was 1 a day weight smart. it's a pill that you take every day with your breakfast. you have to swallow it but it helps A LOT. i was always overweight since about 3rd grade but i'm finally starting to thin down a little. one a day weight smart makes your metabolism faster so you burn your food quicker. it worked wonders for me. you should try it. you start loosing lbs. in the matter of a week. it's great. plus, you can pretty much eat like you normally do. but it's better if you eat healthier. you loose weight quicker and also when you stop taking the pills you won't gain the weight back.

i hope i helped. :/

Go and read the thread called "teen diets" in the featured area of Sports & Fitness (read at least the first 6 pages for your answer)

Eat two different fruits a day say like bananas, oranges or apples. Switch fruits and foods. Don't eat the same food all the time. Eat carrots, tomatos, cucumbers, etc. Raw vegetables and fruits provide enzymes which clean out your blood and system. There are a lot of tiny undigested food particles floating in your blood. The enzymes help in digesting them and keeps your blood clean.

i need weightloss fast.
hey.

im a 13 year old girl (soon to be 14), im about 5'4, and 126 pounds. see, im not really fat fatt, my docter says in perfectly normal but i just want to be slimmer. i notice that i have pretty big love handles though. thats the only thing i really need to get rid of and i hear there really hard to lose. i work out about 30 minutes a day and i try to eat healthy but i still eat some sweets. i wonder if thats why im not as slim as i could be? i defnitley have flubber which i why i want to get rid of it and lose weight. im hoping to be around 115 pounds. my mom says i could easily lose 5 pounds in a week but that just seems impossible. my mom always tells me i was so much chubbier then she was at my age. but i cant really help it. im not really that self consious. should i be? am i overweight?

please help me.

I don't know if you're overweight (there are tables out there that can tell you that) but you're most likely still getting taller. I'm 5'6" and when I was 126 I was way skinny. So you're only a couple of inches shorter than that.

I don't know about losing weight, per se, but you could tone yourself a bit. Others know better than I do but I bet weight training (lifting free weights) would help you as that sort of thing helps with definition. What kind of exercise are you doing? Walking? Bike riding? Running? Skating? Something else? Let's see if we can make your 30 minutes per day do something different for your body.

Oh -- and welcome to A2K.

Well ive been loosing weight by being a vegitarian but that doesnt work for everyone cuz everyone needs vitamens
but i have to eat alot of vegtables and fruit and only a little bread thats mostly it i get water and milk.....
but if your not the type to be a vegan or vegitarian you could
ask your mom to buy lots of vegies and fruit and some meat and if you cook it right like skinless grilled chicken and some kind of vegie side then you could lose weight but you would have to excise run around outside dance in your room when no ones around [i do that lol]

How tall are you, Simon? That will determine whether your body mass index is close or far from normal. That is the number you should be caring about, more than the number of pounds or stone.

Re: Am I? If So... Help Me

Genetics have little to do with that. That person is a runner or a race-walker, I bet.

Re: help


hi! the best advice i can give you is to start eating healthy, and excersise, there are no miracle ways to loose weight no matter what they tell you..

hey whitney!
im a thirteen year old girl as well and i have lost alot of weight in only about half a year! the guidlines of this "diet" are just eating healthy and excercise.

1. eat as little wheat as possible; pizza, bread, etc.
2. lots of vegetables and lots of fruits
3. no soda and sugary juices
4. no fast food

i know its hard work but with the help of this diet i went from over 180 pounds to about 110!
its an amazing life changing experience when you realise that you are getting thinner and even more beautiful...
and its the best feeling when guys start to see you in a different light than before!

-good luck-

hey whitney!
i was about 140 pounds two months ago but now im about 110!
so these are the guidlines to a thinner more beautiful you!
1.more veggies and fruits
2.less wheat and grain; pizza, bread, ect.
3.less fast food
4.less sodas and sugary juices
5.excersise
i know its hard work but it really is worth it when you can see yourself as a prettier person...
its the best feeling when you step on the scale and realise that you are lighter than you were the day before!
but remember that you must lose the weight at a gradual pace (i have become ill trying to lose too much weight too fast).

-good luck-
