Teen Needs Weight Loss Tips Please!!? -

I am 14 at an insane 217 pounds, possibly more. I am 5 6 . I want to loose weight quick, but I have a hard time saying Your a fat slob, go for a freakin walk . I have high self esstem. The reason why I ate so much is because I was addicted. My mother is a very good cook, and I had difficulty resisting cupcakes. I need to catch anorexica. I am not ignorant, I am fully aware of the risks. I tried throwing up 2 times, but it tasted gross and I heard about belly and eshphogas rupture. What is the normal weigh for my age and height? And please don t give me the crap about steady weight loss, diet, blah blah. I know some of you are worried. It s not the media this time. I wat to get down to a certain size. As much as I want to play with the guys in gym, I simply cannot keep up. HELP!!

The only quick fix weightloss is A. catching a disease like milaria or something else terrible or B. going under the knife with lipo suction. The stomache stappling doesn t work that well and leaves you always hungry. Without getting in the company of people who seek to stay thin, you will never acomplish your goal. So my fat little friend. Let s knock you off your highhorse. How fat are you? You are grossly obess and I mean gross. But being mean will not get you thin or maybe it will, I don t know. What motivates you most in life? I think your parents are bad parents letting you become such a plump individual. Whether you love yourself or not ... your not healthy. Swimming is the number 1 way to lose weight. Being fat will actually make you float and it will be less difficult for you so you can gradually work changing fat into muscle and burning other fat off. Also exercise ... my wife has this new system: FLUIDITY ... it s a balay dancer/yoga/poloties style exercise you can do in your own home with a dvd player or computer. It comes with a foldable bar system that needs forces you to have about 6 X 6ft of space to work with. She also does yoga regularly. My wife used to be really thin then she started getting fat and didn t stop. Now she s losing weight and looking great at 32. She wants it bad to be who she was. How bad do you want to be who you never were? Slim, Healthy, Normal. I respect high confidence but when you can tango with an elephant and not look unusual there is a problem. Other things that will keep you losing weight ... singing and dancing ... you don t have to be great just do it all over the place ... wistle, hum, waddle back and forth in place. Movements of the body burns calories. Drinking ice cold water and taking ice cold showers cause the body to use up energy and forces your metabolism to speed up when placed into regular use. Also spicey food increases metabolism causing you to lose weight. Now when your eating moms deliscious food ... eat less off it and eat in the proper order. First start off with a large glass of icecold Milk. I ts good for you and will help you lose weight. Drink a few glasses of icecold water a day as well. Take your cold shower when you wake up and befor you go to bed this will jump start your metabolism in the morning and keep it burning food all night long. Sleep with less covers or even naked ... this can also cause you to burn weight if its cold out but make sure your dry after your cold shower so you don t get sick. Back to moms food ... eat less of it and eat a salid every night first. Speeding up your metabolism and using up more energy then you consume is the key to losing weight and looking great. If your gonna eat like a cow your gonna have to work out like an insaine workout nut. Eat like a 117 lb teenage girl who cares how much she weighs and you will only have to eat right and work out 30 minutes a day 3 days a week. If you work out every day for 30 minutes vigorusly jogging or preferibly swimming until you get your weight off ... you will lose most of your weight within a year. Also when you eat, eat your vegies and fruit first, then your meat, and lastly pasta and potatoes. You need carbs to keep up your energy but carbs are heavy and hard to digest ... try to eat more vegies and fruits and less pasta and potatoes. No bread ... bread is all crap food so avoid the bread and eliminate sweets from your life. If cupcakes are your curse then eat them and limit yourself to one a day and cut yourself back to say 2-3 a week. You ll thank me later. Snack throughout the day ...on nuts, fruit, veggies. Don t skip breakfast ... it s an important meal and should be your only big meal of the day. Some fruit, some oatmeal, some juice, and some eggs. Mix it up and eat some variation of this meal in the morning. Throw in a glass of ice cold water or ice cold milk and your off to the races on eating right, and feeling great. Good luck. This is a lot to take in and change as you feel. Also relize as you get thinner you ll have excess skin that you just can t seem to get rid of ... moisturize your body with vitamin E and aloe to reduce stretch marks being left on your body. The swimming, along with, The fluidity CD exercises, and maybe some yoga if you are willing will help tone your body and rid you of excess skin. You ll look AWSOME and feel great. Change your life and don t stop or it will all come back. Build yourself a Plan Book and set yourself small daily/ weekly goals and set large monthly/yearly goals. Make yourself a Dreamboard that gives you motivation to become whatever it is you want to be with words, pictures and place it where you will look at it every morning and every night to motivate you. Start the mantra I am apprieciative of myself now that I am thin healthy. say it 10 times in the mornning when you wake up and before you go to bed. Good luck.

Okay, first... DON T go anorexic because no duh it s tempting fast but you ll end up in the hospital with a feeding tube in your belly you don t want that!! So here s what I think you should do: eat cereal for breakfast. Pack your lunch with a sandwich, fruit, water, if you must eat ur moms food, eat it in very small portions. Oh, and try a treadmill. It burns calories while u watch TV after school. Best of luck!!

you can t lose weight quickly without killing yourself so get over it! you didn t gain weight quickly and won t lose it quickly. eat more fruits and veggies, less fast food and sodas and excercise. no magic. no pills. no powders.

I m an old fart compared to you, I eat what I want when I want and how much I want and have never gained any weight since I was in High School. 6 feet tall 175 pounds.I think some of it has to do with genes.

I know it is tough, but actually exercise can become very addicting. I LOVE running. Just PLEEEEASE don t become anorexic, you not only become a skelleton but it messes with your mind.

Join a school sports team....... i joined cross country last quarter because i like to run and lossed like 10 pounds not even trying.... haha its fun too and you make a lot of new friends.

ok! you might not consider my answer since i am younger that you but here goes anyway! every night before you go to bed do 5 sit-ups and then when that gets easy do ten and then 15 and so on....also buy a set of weights and while your watching TV just lift a 5 pounder or something and also if you can eat more salads! they are sooo good! (trust me) i am proud that you have a high self asteem! i am a slight bit over weight even though all my friends highly doubt it! my brother calls me fat but i always know hes kidding so i dont really mind that much. anyways just take my advice if you wish and i hope it helps! good luck!!!

start working out. i mean 5 days a week cardio on tues and thurs and weghts and toning the other 3 days. eat what you want just make sure you actually work when you are exercising.

Hi there Blondie, You said it yourself...you are addicted. There is a really good book, called: Food Addiction:The Body Knows by Kay Sheppard, a Masters level therapist and recovering food addict. I am a recovering food addict too and used to weigh an insane 430 pounds! I have been to treatment for it twice (if your parents have insurance and you tell the doctor or school nurse about the bulimia attempts and anorexia desire maybe you could go to treatment too!) The other person who lost a lot of weight said that she gave up grease and sugar. That is basically it...only if you are really sensitive you might also have to give up flour and even all added sugars because they trigger the phenomenon of craving. That has been my way to lose 255.5 pounds and keep it off. You might wonder what to have in place of bread...corn tortillas, rye crisps, oatmeal, quinoa (hehehe look it up!) and other whole grains. It takes about a week to get through sugar/flour withdrawal and you may have a headache and feel fluish and anxious but if you can hang through it the cravings will diminish or leave entirely!!I will put some links for you here under the source part. Oh, and hey, anorexia sucks...I tried that too and damaged my heart plus I was just as ugly, weak and worse, bony, so I couldn t keep up w the guys in gym. I could do my gymnastic routine better at 160 than at 120 when I was too thin and weak. I am not saying that binge eating disorder doesn t suck too, just don t add another problem.Peace, Joy

well i am 14 and 5 6 also..i weigh 120 and the doctor said i am average so i guess thats average.idk.lol..try anorexia..idk!

lol, you dont need to catch anorexia, don t be silly. throwing up will only kill you if you keep it up, but if you don t it will still slow your metabolism. you need to take small steps. my best friend lost almost 110 lbs in 18 months just by giving up drinking anything but ice water. she still ate what ever she wanted. walking IS a good thing! that is a great suggestion. did you know 8 glasses of ice water will burn about 200 calories because you use energy to heat it to metabolize it? other foods like celery, pickles and cucumbers can take more energy (calories) to digest than you actually consume by eating it. my point is take small steps and make small differences with your diet and activity level and in time, you will see a big difference.

First of all you don t catch anorexcia. Please Please Please don t use the bulimic approach. Try walking. Just atleast 20 minutes a day. It will help a lot and try drinking lots of water. There is no way you are going to be able to loss weight if you don t exercise.

Drink more water. exercise, eat fruits and veggies, and lean meats like chicken. There is also this thing its a fast where you drink water mixed with cayenne pepper, and honey and lemon, you should look it up on the internet, its probably not the safest way to lose weight. A coworker of mine did it and lost about 10 lbs...but you probably gain it back when you start eating again. Also, dont use that much salt, keep tabs on your sodium in take, because the salt helps you retain water weight, and makes you bloaty. Ketchup, low-sodium soy sauce, everything has sodium so you have to be careful. Start buying those 100 calorie packs of snacks, to help you keep tabs on your caloric intake, also take the hard way, if you have to walk somewhere..walk it! dont be lazy. Water, excercise, fruits, veggies, fish and lean meats...sorry to be cliche but its true.

you have great attitude and thats the first step. If you like eating alot eat every 2 hours but only 100 calories a day and do alot of situps and muscle work evey day and run. not any calories at all and lots of fat loss

I weighed 210 pounds and im now 160went from a 18 to a 10I cut out all the grease and sugarthats it and I lost the weightit get discouraging when it doesn t go as fast as you want it to but YOU CAN DO ITGood luck

well i became anorexic and i stopped eating and started drinking alot of water and chewing gum it makes your body think wen ur chewing your about to swallow and then drink water so u do swallo i got from 315 ibs to 110 in 5 mo.
