Does anybody have weight loss tips for a 12 yr. old that does not like to diet or exercise????????? -

I was the same way when I was twelve. That s about the time I started taking a keen interest in girls and I noticed that they weren t particularly attracted to fat boys. At that time my mom was a little too accommodating with food. Six french toast for breakfast ... not a problem. Just eating better in the morning .... switching to cereal worked for me. Later on I did start exercising and working out ... it s hard to get started but once you do and notice positive changes ... it s hard to stop.

Find activities like roller skating or riding bikes with friends. It IS exercise, but because you re doing it just for fun, it doesn t seem so hard. While you re doing those things, you re not home and fishing through the refrigerator either! When you DO snack, try to make every other one something healthy. You don t have to cut out ALL junk food, but you can replace chips with celery and peanut butter now...and have chips tomorrow.

ok -- i started losing weight when i was about 11 or 12, and i lost 30 pounds in about 4 months.....if you stick to a plan, you should lose some weight. since you are in the growing time of your life, you need to make sure that you stay healthy -- do not stop eating....it is one of the worst ways to try to loose weight. what i did was replace sodas with water. i drank water with almost every meal. also, make sure you get yogurt and milk and stuff so you get calcium. make sure you get at least 8 hours of sleep each night. you could go for walks everyday....or a few days a week.....or you could walk around your house or something. eat lots of fruits and veggies. eat smaller portions of food, but eat about every 4 hours. try to eat supper about 3 and a half hours before you go to bed. if you want faster results, do some exercises each night before you go to bed -- i lost a lot of weight and got a nice flat tummy by doing this. try to find ways to burn calories - play outside with friends, play with any pets (if you have any).......don t sit on your butt and watch tv all day. :) and remember to reward yourself ..for example, if you set a goal to lose 2 pounds in a set amount of days, and if you reach that goal, reward yourself by going shopping or doing something that you d like to do. HOWEVER.....don t pig out because you could gain more weight. i wish you good luck, and if you have any questions or need support, feel free to email me at lardball777@yahoo.com

Well you could learn to love diet and exercise!Okay if thats not doing it for you get what you normally would to eat then cut it in half. Save the other half for later feed it to a dog what ever just eat half as much as you would regularly or try to mix it up trying some veggie or soy meat alternitives and getting low fat and low sugar substitutes. Also on exercise try joining a team sport your team will motivate you to give it your all and esspcially if you join a school sport you won t be tempted to give up as easily. Other then that you can try walking places you would nomally get a ride for like to the libary or a friends house. Little changes really add up and before you know it your a thinner healther you!

Watch what you eat try walking a little. lay off the sweets totally, have servings instead of a huge meal

To lose weight you need to burn more calories than you ingest. I am sorry but a healthy diet and exercise are the best ways to lose weight:-( Try eating more high fiber foods (they make you fuller longer and eliminate more waste). Try cutting out sodas (even diet soda, the fake sugar makes you crave more of the real thing) Increase you daily water intake it will make you lose more weight. I have read that ice water speeds up your metabolism but I don t know how true this it. If you don t like the taste of plain water you can add a lemon wedge to it or mint sprigs.Cut out things like high fats and high sugar items. Subsitue them with a fruit that you like (for sugar). Eat good fats that are plant based. These fats will not make you fat! Try eating hummus with your vegetables or on a sandwich instead of dips and mayo.Don t listen to the jackass that told you to throw up. Being healthy is the most important thing.

Yes sign them up for a sport.

Well, nobody really likes to diet or excercise. Just eat healty, don t starve yourself. As far as excercise goes....just get outside, and see the world. You ll be surprised what will happen when you get off your rear end and see whats out there!!!

Since a 12 yearold is still growing....maybe you should try to maintain their weight and not concentrate on losing.If you are the parent you can help out by not keeping a lot of bad food in the house. Soda is the worst.and...shut the tv OFF!

How do I keep myself motive to loose weight.? -

I read all the weight loss tips and I say to myself I will do it tomorrow morning. The morning comes and I do nothing. So, how do I even start and stay motivated.

Music can be a really good motivator. When I listen to music geared toward weight loss, then I m constantly reminded of my weight loss goal, and it helps me fight my temptation for that extra cookie. I personally like SkinnySongs. Hope this helps! http://www.skinnysongs.com

Aw lol yes its hard, but remember weight loss respondes to exersize aswell. the key is to make a plan.. Plan your eating for the day, then you dont mess up by snacking, and dont make it too intense so your starving yourself, just eat small meals every 3 hours, it keeps you fill and over all you do eat less. And if exersize is you motive problem its also gud to plan that aswell, like do 3 sets of 20 pushups and 3 sets of prison squats then a 20 minute run! If you try to make it too hard you will lose that motavation all togeather... well good luck!

you should take a pic of yourself everyday and see the changes, then you should think that if you made it that far, why stop now?

Diet pill that really works with no side effects? -

I have been excercising and eating healthy for the past 2 1/2 weeks. I need a supplement to take with my routine that has been proven to help lose weight and gives energy. I want to lose about 30 lbs and tone. Any weight loss tips is also greatly appreciated. My work out routine so far is:25-30 mins cardio for 5 days, full body work out 2 days (including free weights).

Take vitamin B12 orally or shots....Drink lots of waterDrink Green Teaand DO NOT use any diet pills...they are ALLLLL badAnd, up your free weight to 4 daysCardio for 30 minutes or more at a medium speed ( you can talk while doing cardio).Eating healthly needs to be defined as NO SUGAR, NO WHITE FLOUR, NO SODAS OR DIET SODAS AND LOW FAT ( fat free products are full of sugar)

ECA Stack= Ephedrine, Caffenine AspirnDo some research on this. You can buy all products are walmart I believe and you take them in a ratio of 1:10:10.

I d say keep doing what you are doing...it takes time. It took me 6 months to lose 25lbs. but I have kept it off consistently. I have taken many diet supplements and pills and I always gained the weight back and it wasn t healthy. When you do it all on your own there is a sense of accomplishment that YOU did it...not some pill. You can do it so just keep up the routine!!!!

Diet pills do not work because usually it is only water weight that is lost. Try making lifestyle changes instead. Check out www.mypyramid.gov for a healthy eating plan to aid with weight loss.

I ve had great results with Diet Source from Vitamin World.You get a month s supply for about $60.But check with your doctor before taking anything to make sure it won t affect you negatively.

I tried 100% Hoodia and......Hoodia has worked for me...and with no side effects. Check with your doctor before starting any weight loss program.For all you doubters, here is the prior feedback for another Answers user who followed my advice:Asker s Rating: *****very good comment i lost 2 lbs in a weeki think i can almost get in my leather dress, i can hit the town in no time **** VERY IMPORTANT NOT TO GET RIPPED OFF --- #1. Be sure you are buying pure Hoodia...look for the import certificate on the website. No matter the price, if they do not display this, you really do NOT know what you are getting!#2. Be sure it is 100% Hoodia not mixed w/other herbs, etc.!!#3. Keep in mind it stops your hunger pangs��you MUST remember to break your habit to always eat at certain times.#4. Drink a full 8oz. glass of water with it!Hoodia (HOOD-ee-uh) gordonii - A genus of 10 to 20 species from southwestern Africa. Hoodia gordonii is the stoneage wonder plant found throughout the dry arid regions of the South western African continent now on the verge of making history in the fight against obesity.

I need some weight loss tips, e.g. excercise routines? -

I had to stop participating in games and sporting excercises for just under two years. Since then ive been what I call Big - I am big. For Goodness sake im 12st9lb. Ive tried and tried to lose weight, it fluctuates sometimes, but I appear to just be getting bigger right now! Does anyone have any good excercise routines, please? I have a lateral thigh trainer and a treadmill. Unfortuantely being this big AND having Osgoodschlataz (spelling glitch) and Severs Condition makes excercise very tiring and painful for me. I personally try my best. It s getting to the point now, because im young, that if i carry on and don t do something - I m going to slowly make my self ill. Please Please - Any Help or Motivational tips on my quest to lose weight will be much appreciated. I will hopefully keep everyone who is interested posted on my success and weight loss (fingers crossed) Thank you very much, Sorry about the mini essay!

Is there anywhere that you can swim laps? It burns a lot of calories and is still not hard on your body.

Hi,I lost 5kg in 2 weeks. For the last 5 years I have had fantastic results with Xenical for weight loss. And the best part is that I never had to suffer from hunger pangs or deprive myself of all the wonderful food I enjoyed. After about 3 weeks I was able to happily choose if I wanted to eat those fattening foods or not.Xenical helps do this by working on the absorption of fat in your body instead of suppressing your appetite. The main ingredient in Xenical is orlistat and when taken with a meal it works on the enzymes in your stomach and ensures that about 30% of the fats eaten in the meal is not absorbed into the body and therefore excreted undigested.When you compare calories, the 9 calories per gram of fat is more than double that of 4 calories for protein and 4 calories for carbohydrates. In fact when I first started with Xenical I had to reduce my intake of diabetic medication because of this sharp drop in calorific intake. And within a few days I started to see the pounds coming off for the first time in my life and the feeling was just so exhilarating.Its now been 5 years and I am able to maintain my ideal weight and feeling so much fitter. As always check with your doctor before embarking on any weight loss program. Check it out for yourself at:http://www.photosonlinespace.com/xenical.php Martin

Thanksgiving soon but continue weight loss? -

I am going away for Thanksgiving, more precisely 4 days. Four whole days without my gym! I don t know if I will be able to fit in exercise while I am away and I am really scared of gaining weight. I am really close to my goal weight and I don t want anything to get in my way. So I desperately need Thanksgiving weight loss tips! Please help!! Thank you so much in advance!

Thanksgiving food is delicious. . . who would wanna pass that up???

you can always do stretches and some cardio workouts at home and be not needing your gym.or you can try these.First: Do a high impact exercise before going to bed. Also, drink plenty of water and do not eat before you go to bed. Doing these things will ensure that you burn plenty of calories. Next: Look through a magazine and find a picture of how you want to look like. Think yourself slim or sexy as you fall asleep, or tell yourself an affirmation before you go to bed. Doing these things will keep you motivated and determined to achieving your goal. Third: Drink water upon rising early in the morning. This will wash away all the fat cells and cleanse your body for the day.

Stick with Turkey instead of Ham, there are less calories and fat. Also, avoid sugar and starchy food, like mashed potatos. You can always make a sugar free pie to take with you and have that instead of what everyone else has and if you take it, then you can just say you figured you would bring something with you so no one will even know that you are dieting. Also, try taking some walks while your there, not slow ones, really brisk walks. They are better than the treadmill :-)

If you know right diet information and program, diet is easy. If you are really serious, you must have fast diet program that works for you. I recommend you my diet program for you. I lost 11 pounds in 2 weeks and it was very fast. You can do it too. You can get more information here link below.

don t be too amaze or excited with the food you will see it is just a matter of disciplining yourself remember the hard work you did just to be near with your weight goal healthy dieting vs delicious foods that can make you fat

If you have Access To Apples while you are away. Eat One, 1 Hr Before Each Meal, Followed With or By, a Tall Glass of Water. Your appetite will be cut drastically in half, and you won t get fat.

keep your meals small, and often, your body burns small meals easierlarge meals with no exercise = fat, excess calories that dont get burned become fat

put nothing in your mouth unless you are hungry {belly grumble} not even a taste . good luck

don t eat

Weight Loss Tips, pleaseeeee? -

I need some tips to help me loss weight. I m 5 5 and weigh about 140 pounds. It s not that much, and alot of it isn t fat, BUT MY THIGHS ARE HUGE. I wear size 9 pants. :( Help?

Dear , For my latest project, I has been searching for almost one week on the same topic and found this. http;//weightloss9.freevar.com Wish you a good luck,

you don t need things like acai berry, people say they work, they might but if u go back to eating other foods weight will go straight back on.so what you need to do is eat less calories than you are burning, so keep track of how much you eat, and eat slightly smaller portions of food, i did this i thought it would be impossible but i am slowly losing weight, because you are not a big person, it will be a lot slower process for you to lose weight, so it may come off very slow, not even much of a difference. but once you have lost the weight it will STAY OFF for good!so just trying to eat healthy things and once in a while something naughty, but also going for a run 3 times a week or hitting the gym, bike riding or just anything to get your heart rate up!hope this helps

Well what you need to do is to only eat as many calories as you burn in a day. Easy ways to cut out loads of empty calories (lots of sugars, and no nutritional value or vitamins) is cut out sodas, have less sauces, like ketchup and ranch, because they contain lots of calories. Also exercise regularly and do not eat after 7:30 at night if at all possible. I HOPE THIS HELPS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
