What are some good weight loss tips for a 16 year old girl? -

Im a 16 year old girl, 5 2 , and 155 pounds. My heaviest weight was 164. Im trying to get to 125 by March or April. I play Dance Dance Revolution 2-3 hours a day. I try to stay in the 700-1100 calories a day limit. I drink lots of water stuff....so my only problem is overeating and eating bad foods sometimes. Does anyone have any good tips so I can lose 30 pounds by March/April? I dont know if DDR is enough....should I be doing more workouts? I do workout mode and burn about 80 calories each time, and usually play it 2-3 hours a day. Thanks!!!!!

You should be able to lose 10 lbs a month pretty easily if you eat properly and continue your exercise. Try eating small meals 5 or 6 times a day instead of larger meals and try not to eat after 6 pm and if you do eat after that, make sure its very light. If you haven t tried weight training, that will help as well because it increases your resting metabolism. Your body is in repair mode to fix the muscles so it burns more calories.

you should do more exersizes then just DDR. You should take daily JOG S not walks.. and wear a lot of clothing. wear like 2/3 sweatshirts.. and a bunch of layers. The reasonfor that is you ll get hot real quick and you ll start sweating. As soon as you starting to sweat a lot, wipe it all off, cause if u just leave it there you ll start to cool down and wont sweat as much. it won t be as conmfortable with all those layers, but it ll be worth it in the end!! good luck! oh, and eat healthy

do it for 10 more minutes each day. That should help.

Start with 8-10 cups of water a day. 4 cups should be green tea.No other liquids. Green tea pulls out fat out of your fat cells. Then for breakfast 1 cup nonfat yogurt. with toastSnack, orange or apple or berries, no bananasLunch, Small green salad with low fat dressing 3 oz. proteinSnack, fruit as aboveDinner, 1 cup Steamed veggie 3 oz. protein no bread no pasta

stop eating at fast food resturants stop eating artery cloging foods, smack on carroet sticks when you eat meals eat smaller portions.

Number one...stop drinking soda or pop whatever you call it. My sister is 16 also but was 188 and 5 2 before Christmas and her weight was on the way down rapidly. but holidays pie and soda(or pop) got her back and now she s flirting with 200 lbs. Lose the weight now because it will never be any easier down the road.
