Weight loss tips for a 13-year-old? -

I m a 13-year-old girl, and I need to lose some weight.I m 5 5 , and I weigh 126, and my BMI is 25%.All I really need is something that can help me slim down, especially my legs, without involving diet pills.Does anyone know of any specific exercises or things I can do?Please consider that I am a student at the Middle School who eats lunch at school and gets home late, so I m not going to be able to eat some of the things that people sometimes suggest for lunch and dinner.Please help!Thank you!

well im 14 right now but when i was 13 last year i was 5 1 and like 114 i think so i did sit ups, but not that many, only like 15 or 20 every night. also at Target, they have that wanna be slim fast that says ultra weight loss shake(the creamy chocolate one ttastes best), it says on the box to drink 2 a day but i only drank 1 a day. i replaced breakfast each morning with a shake and it worked really fast like in 2 weeks. every few days i d go for a run around my neighborhood either after school or in the morning on a weekend. For your legs, running is great but even better is playing tennis. Im on the tennis team right now and it really does a lott for your legs, they get really nicely shaped and a nice glowy color too haha. Uhm also really good for your legs is jump roping. jump straight for about 1 a minute really fast then take a break and then do it again, i did that like twice a week. i lost 10 pounds but i didnt keep up with the shakes or the jump roping so i probably couldve lost more, but it really did help a lot. hope this helps you :)

just to let you know pretty much the same exact height and weight as me (im a bit older). but you re 13!!! you should NOT be worrying about your weight. instead of making it a goal to lose weight, make it a goal to be in better shape and be more healthy. this would be by eating balanced meals, drinking lots of water, and starting a simple exercise routine, like running, biking, or swimming. tip: when you re craving something, especially something unhealthy, drink a glass of water. that usually helps to get rid of cravings and it fills you up, but theres no calories, and its just plain good for you!so heres the point: eat healthy. drink water. exercise. good luck

I wouldn t suggest dieting at such a young age because it could lead to eating disorders later on in life. What I would suggest for you is joining a sport, possibly track if it s available to you. If you aren t into sports too much, I think you should get the Pilates buns and thighs workout. That one really works well for slimming and toning the legs instead of bulking them up.

Drink lots of water to fill you up right before you eat lunch and you will end up eating much less. If you exercise for two hours a day, you can basically eat whatever you want because you are burning so many calories. Dancing, running, and swimming are great sport and are also very fun. Eat the healthiest foods you can find and resist desserts!

Actually, you don t need to diet in fact in order to lose weight, the only diet that really showed results for me is wu-yi tea, it can be checked out in the resource box underneath, they have a few free trials in stock, it has been reported in Reader s Digest and CNN. I melted away twenty five pounds, it really does produce success!

In the morning,or when you come home at night.Prepare a delicious salad with chicken,or a LIGHT dressing.For the exercise,are you able to take up a sport at school? Because since you get home late the only thing i can really suggest is buying a Workout DVD.I have one and its just dancing.Its extremely fun.Its called Teen Tone Extreme dance workout .I got it in target.But all over jsut eat veggies and healthy things

It s not so much what you eat as it is how much of it you eat. Cut your portion size down or eat less of it. Switch to water with meals, cut out junk food, take healthy snacks to school. Have a activity you enjoy so that you will do it such as swimming, dancing, a team sport etc.

You don t need to loose weightYou re 13, your body is growing, and you need nutrition but also exerciseJust live with that

call up tour friends and take walks and talk and jog it s a slow prcess but it works! and eat stuff like chicken and salad don t eat to mmuch steak or hamburger

Jog.
