Ok sweetie, first of all, you need to calm down. You are 11 years old!! You shouldn t be worried about this yet!! Since you said you are very muscular, that means that most of your body is probably muscle weight. I m sure your boyfriend WANTS a girlfriend who s in shape like you! And your friends probably weigh so light because they havent matured yet, but when they do, they will gain weight and height and look older. YOU SHOULDNT WORRY ABOUT YOUR WEIGHT YET! But, If you want to work out, you should probably run about 3 miles a day, that will keep you in pretty good shape.

well if u really wanna loose weight u should not eat after 6:00 pm exersice more often about 30 min. a day. well u kno whats funny im tryna loose weight and look @ me givin other pplz advice wow lolz so yea oo and not a lot of sugar gud luck Report Abuse

Why would you wanna lose weight? I was 120 pounds at your age. If you are muscular than you just have muscle weight. If you want to help lose that lower belly here is what you do. Lay down like you are going to do a crunch. But instead of putting your feet on the floor put them on a raised surface. Also there is no real fast way to lose weight. Also it isn t healthy to lose weight fast, it can cause health problems in the future. You are at a healthy weight at your age. All your friends sound under weight. If they don t start gaining a few pounds they can end up with all the same health problems that overweight people can end up with. You shouldn t worry about your weight until you are close to being overweight. Well if you need any more info you can email me at bluehippy15@yahoo.com. Hope i helped.

Excess weight or obesity is by far the number one health concern in this country. Sixty percent of Americans are either overweight or obese, including over 20 percent of teenagers. All are at risk for serious physical and emotional health problems.Over three-quarters of obese adults, for example, suffer from high blood pressure, high cholesterol, coronary heart disease, diabetes or osteoarthritis. Nearly 40 percent have more than one of these conditions. They are also at risk for stroke and cancer. There are over 300,000 deaths per year from weight related causes.Body Mass Index or BMI is a good way to determine if you are carrying too much weight. The BMI is based on your height and weight, but it gives a better estimate than the older ideal body weight tables. Click here to calculate your BMI.Although there are many general causes for weight problems, the most responsible self-empowering one is that you��re simply eating too many calories for the amount of energy you��re expending. To control your weight you either have to decrease your calories or increase your exercise or some combination of the two. On and off dieting will not take care of the problem. Maintaining a healthy weight is a matter of day by day conscious control of both the amount and types of foods you eat and the level of physical activity in your life. --Weight Loss-- --http://www.healthylifeday.com/index.php?option=com_content task=view id=81 Itemid=62 --

I know you will have heard this before but at 11 years old, you shouldn t be so worried about your weight.A lot of girls your age get so concerned with weight the develop eating disorders, before they know it no matter how much they lose they are never thin enough, it can lead to lots of medical problems, including your development into a women.fasting is a really bad idea, girls have done the same thing and stunted their growth, a girl I used to school with done this, she ended developing very late, she had period problems, she didn t grow out like the other girls, she still had a body like a girl at 16, she couldn t eat properly, her teeth rotted.The boys wouldn t date her, we went to see a 12 movie when she was 15 and they wouldn t let her in they thought she was my little kid sister.I know school is a lot of pressure when you are there, I won t tell you it doesn t matter because I was your age once too and it feels like your whole world.You have said you are muscular and it is great you are in good shape, you could do exercises for your stomach, crunchs, sit ups, get info on exercise that is for your tummy muscles.Lots, and I mean lots of people not just girls have problems getting the flat stomach they want, no matter what age they are.You shouldn t be obsessed with weight loss, try the excercise aimed at your stomach, but please dont fast, or starve yourself, it will be very bad for your body.Take Care of Yourself, before any guy, if he doesn t like you for you, then you can do better. Hope this helpedKatie

In your case you say you are very muscular. Well muscles have weight. It may look like you weigh a lot if you weigh your self on the scale as coompared to another 11 year old. You have to ask your self do my clothes fit properly for the size of a healthy muscular eleven year old? If you were to say that you were flabby abd were fat then I would say you should go a diet of restricting your sweet intake. No sodas (diet or regular). No candy no cakes cookies etc. You in your case should eat properly and if you feel you are eating a lot just stick to your vewgetables such as broccoli, spinach string beans, some carrots, mustard greens, collard greens, beans etc. You should also have lean meats such as chicken and turkey and some good meats like roast beef.You should aslo have a good breakfast with an egg and a bowl of oatmeal (no sugar in oatmeal plain oatmeal) Or you can have a good cereal like shredded wheat or special K or cheerios etc as tthese have low sugar content. Also you should eat half a grapefruit with your breakfast and another half a grapefruit with your lunch. Eating properly should help you to metabolize better and to burtn off any fat that you may have.. You can try walking and a little bit of running. You say that you are muscular so you have won half the battle because muscle helps you to metabolize your food better. Following that type of diet and increase your walking and maybe doing calesthenics like touching your toes and doing sit-ups like you probobly learned in school. This will help you to lose the body fat by your lower stomach and you will lose fat weight and then you will start to look better.Cut out the sodas and sweets and drink plenty of water as water will help your body to function properly and you will burn fat and the water will help flush it all out of your body. If you do all that you will lose the 18 lbs in no time at all. Increase your activity and eat proper foods and stay away from sugary drinks and other excessive amounts of cakes cookies candy etc. Good luck and have a good school year.

u will loose it fast. trust me the younger you are the faster and easier it is to loose. when your young (im 15) you will loose it fast ( i did) so you got enough time to drop a decent amount of weight. i droped 10 pounds in 2 weeks by eating very health, ( eating special k cerial) and joging.and your smaller then me so you should loose it fast.good luck and have a happy healthy life.

Your young kid, and 98 pounds isnt bad at all, and an alternative if you dont lose the weight.....dont let your b/f see your lower stomach

you really don t need to be worried about this, especially if you said that you are very muscular, MUSCLE MASS WEIGHS MORE THAN FAT!!

You r still growing. I am willing to bet you have not started your monthly cycle yet. When you do start, you will stop growing then you can worry about weight loss. Right now it should not be a concern because you will get taller and start to shape more.
