TEENAGERS - weight loss? -

Hey, I m 13!I want to lose 15 pounds. What is the most effective way to lose? any diet plans? Weight loss tips?All appreciated, thanks. No ads/ spam please.

Breakfast-No fat YogurtLunch-SaladDinner-Grilled Chicken SaladAnd Drink Lots of Water

You may have no extra weight to lose, dear- just a thought. Muscle weighs more than fat, and if you are working out to the extend you say you are, you probably don t have much to lost. Unless you also eat like an elephant, and eat a lot of high calorie things. The best diet is a sensible balanced one. As long as you are a teenager, you are still growing. You grow inside and out, so it s not always visible. Calorie restrictions are not a good idea, as it limits the amount of building material you have available to do the work of building you and doing repairs. The best diet is one that provides a good balance of things, with no particular food being bad or off limits. The FDA site has a lot of really good information about what a teen diet should be like, to help you make the wise choices. In the end, it does come down to calories though. If you eat more calories than you expend over several days time, you gain weight. If you eat fewer calories, you lose. It s not the intake of any one day that tilts the scale, it s a matter of several days or a week that are most important. So it s an average dailly intake of calories that you look at, using a week s worth of calorie intake to get the average. Portion size would play into the calorie counting, obviously. While there aren t any bad foods, there are most definitely foods you should eat less of, less often than others. Your diet should be heavy on the whole grains, fruits and veggies, and light on fats and sugars. Obviously, you want to avoid much in the empty calorie category, like soda- but then again, a soda every so often isn t going to kill you either. Offset a high fat, high calorie meal with a low fat, low calorie meal. It s a matter of balance, really. A little of what you crave and a lot of what is good for you. The key is moderation, not excess and not deprivation. Check out the FDA site, and go from there.

How to lose weight/tone up? -

Hi!So, I ve always been a little bit bigger. Not much bigger than I should be for my body type and shape, but I ve always had a flabby stomach (not fat (it can be flat at times) ) but its never hard always fleshy. Next, i ve always had love handles...ALWAYS. Its in my body type as well, but , is it possible to get rid of them? Any way to workout (i have an elliptical machine at home). I d appreciate workout and weight loss tips.

Think about this, your body make up and build is basically the same as an all star athlete, a hard working farmer, and a warrior in Africa.What s the difference between you and those other individuals? I can only assume it s diet and exercise. Try to eat healthy at every meal. Only drink water. Lots of fruit and vegetables, not much fried stuff, skip desserts, eat smaller portions.then as for exercise, Think about those same individuals mentioned earlier. do you think their daily routine is equivelent to some 30 minute cardio workout? no, see if you can ride your bike to work, or jog for an hour or two each day.basically, live like a regular human being. Treat your body in a way that makes it healthy, not temporarily happy.

Cardiovascular exercises (running, walking, aerobics, etc. including your ellipical machine) won t help you tone up much, though it might help you lose weight by burning calories.If you want tone, you re going to have to do strength building exercises to increase the mass of your muscles. You ll have to start doing crunches, weight lifting, etc. Bicycle crunches are the best for the abs.

I m kind of like you. Here s what I did: I went on a cleanse from Dr Livingston s book greenlife weight loss and it helped me to lose my belly and love handles. I went on it for 3 days on and took 3 days off and then did another 3 days. This worked awesome and helped me to overcome my plateau. I think his site is http://www.greenlifeweightloss.com, try it, if not just google GreenLife Weight Loss and something should pop up. Good Luck!

Well i used to be big and i got in shape and i think the most important thing is that you have to be persistant.a good way to burn fat though is to run for 15-20 minutes then right away move on to doing a core excercise such as sit-ups or push-ups.

Try

Get off the elliptical, do sit ups, stop shoving brownies down the hole in your neck.

Conditioning work outs. Lots of reps of small weights to burn fat and tone out muscles and such.

Do some cardio like jogging or running, jumping on a trampoline.and do some light weight lifting.

Do 20-30 minutes of cardio 4-5 times a week, then follow with weights. (push ups. crunches. squats. free weights. etc.)

Do Tae Kwon Do.

don t! guys like girls who are curvy.

Age 14 weight loss tips please? -

I am 14, 5 6, and 190 lbs. I m so tired of being fat. It makes me feel horrible about myself. I d like to lose at least 30lbs. I know pretty much the only healthy way to do it is diet and exercise, but does anyone have any tips? I ve been trying to go out on walks every night and play DDR, but I can t seem to keep it up. How can I force myself to start exercising every day?Also, I don t usually have snacks during the day, but I do usually have dessert. Is this bad? Thanks to anyone who helps! I appriciate it.

Hi there,Well, being 14, you definitely have age on your side. From past experience, I can say it was always easier to lose weight in my teens, than my twenties or my thirties. I yo-yo dieted for many years, losing and gaining 30 or 40 pounds. I often hated myself and the bad self-image I had affected everything around me. When I turned 30, I finally found out how to keep my weight stable, while still enjoying life and not being a slave to exercise. I have maintained my weight now for 5 years. You can be healthy again. Here s how:First, go to the doctor and get a physical. Get your thyroid gland tested - ask for T3, T4 and TSH test to be performed for this, not just TSH. The doctor will know what you are talking about. Your thyroid gland regulates your metabolism, so if it s underactive, it will cause you to gain weight.Next, when you find that there is no medical problem causing you to gain weight, you will need to make some radical changes in your lifestyle. You are not going to diet, but instead change your way of eating, exercising and thinking.Breakfast - YOU HAVE TO EAT IT!!!! 80% of fat people don t eat breakfast and 80% of skinny people do. This doesn t mean a large muffin and a coke, either. The best thing you can eat for breakfast is fresh fruit. Have as much as you want!I eat four or five pieces of fruit sometimes.For the rest of your meals and snacks (yes, snacking is good) there are a few things to remember:No refined (white) sugar. When you eat it, it just makes you even more hungry!Little or no processed foods. This means eat FRESH foods, especially fresh vegetables - organic if you can. Start reading the labels on boxes and cans if you are going to eat what s in them. Usually, if you can t pronounce it, you don t want to eat it. I could literally write a book about this, but fortunately, someone already did. It s called, SkinnyBitch and it s written by Rory Freedman and Kim Barnouin. It will really change your way of thinking.As for exercise, find something you like to do. Anything! If you are going to do it an hour a day, 3-5 times a week, you better enjoy it, right? Try to lift some weights, too. This will burn a lot of calories and help keep your bones strong.One more thing, try not to lose more than 10 pounds a month. No starvation!!!! You just wreck your metabolism!You can do this. You don t have to feel horrible about yourself. Remember that it s YOUR body and YOU are the only person who controls how it looks. By this summer, you can be in a bathing suit, feeling pretty hot!Good luck!

i have just the thing for you here you go good luck!!YOU MUST DRINK 5 X 8OZ GLASSES OF WATER EACH DAY.THE DIET MUST BE FOLLOWED EXACTLY TO LOSE 10LBS IN 3 DAYS.DAY 1BREAKFASTBlack coffee/tea, ? grapefruit, 1 slice toast, 2 spn of peanut butter or small tin baked beans.LUNCHBlack coffee/tea, 4 oz tuna, 1 slice toast.DINNER2 Slices any cold meat, 1 cup string beans, 4oz beetroot, 1 small apple, 4oz vanilla ice cream.DAY 2BREAKFASTBlack coffee/tea, 1 egg, 1 slice toast, ? banana.LUNCHBlack coffee/tea, 4oz cottage cheese, 5 saltina crackers.DINNER2 Slices any cold meat, 4oz broccoli, 2oz carrots, ? banana, 4oz vanilla ice cream.DAY 3BREAKFASTBlack coffee/tea, 5 saltina crackers, 1 slice cheddar cheese, 1 small apple.LUNCHBlack coffee/tea, 1 hard boiled egg, 1 slice toast.DINNER4oz tuna, 4oz beetroot, 4oz cauliflower, ? melon, 4oz vanilla ice cream.THIS DIET WORKS ON A CHEMICAL BREAKDOWN AND IS PROVEN. DO NOT MIX OR SUBSTITUTE ANY OF THE ABOVE FOODS. SALT PEPPER CAN BE USED BUT NO OTHER SEASONING.THIS DIET IS TO BE USED 3 DAYS AT A TIME. IN 3 DAYS YOU WILL LOSE 10LBS. AFTER 3 DAYS OF DIETING YOU CAN EAT NORMALLY BUT REMEMBER NOT TO OVERDO IT. YOU CAN LOSE UP TO 40LBS IN A MONTH IF YOU STICK TO IT.TOAST MUST BE DRY. NO BUTTER OR MARGE.SALTINA CRACKERS ARE TUC OR RITZ.

Try jogging for 30 min every other day. That way you will be able to keep it up. if you excersice everyday you will end up giving up after a couple of weeks. Consistency is the key to losing fat. Also the most you can hope to loose in a week is about 2 pounds. More than that is probably unhealthy. Don t trust the scale too much.YOU CAN T LOOSE 10LBS IN 3DAYS. WITHOUT PUTTING YOURSELF IN SERIOUS RISK

You are on the right track, just try and cut out the desserts every day, but don t deprive yourself completely, that never works! You have to be patient to see results, I know it s hard, but they will come! Also, I was never somebody who liked exercise either, and the only advice I have is just do it, even when you don t feel like it and over time it will become part of your routine and you might even look forward to it (like I do now). Also, you don t need to exercise EVERY DAY, 3-5 days a week is enough. You need some days off for your body to recuperate. However, nothing wrong with trying to add some more activity into daily life: take stairs, walk when you can! Good luck :)

Exercise is good. Taking walks is excellent. Yes, cut the dessert and eat a fruit instead. You re doing everything right all you need is to have a little more of patience. Pretty soon you ll see the results. Good luck!

I need help with dance and flexibilty!! please :)? -

I am an advanced latin and ballroom dancer. I am about to start ballet, Jazz and tap so i have a few questions regarding flexibility.- Will i eventually be able to go into the split if i can kick my leg to 100 degrees?- What are some stretches to help me become more flexible all over my body but espially to do splits- Is there any way i can make myself more flexible without stretching heaps.- Have you got any weight loss tips... I am 14 btwThanks xx

A very good exercise for your front split is the butterfly position. I ll try to explain it :) Sit down on the floor, with the soles of your feet touching each other, so your knees should be outwards. Now grab your feet and place your elbows on your knees. Try to push your knees down as far as possible, you should feel a nice stretch in your legs. You can also do this by keeping your back straight and push your knees down. One for your other splits (don t know how to call them XD). Place your leg on a couch or a closet, something high enough for you to feel a stretch :) So you place your leg on it and try to lean forward over your leg and touch your toes. Try to get your nose as close to your leg as possible, so you should feel a nice stretch again. Of course you ll do it with your other leg as well ;) Another stretch I also do is one I learned from youtube (anaheim ballet :)) You ll need a open door :) put your leg in front of you as high as you can (by using the frame of the door) and push on the leg that you are stretching. This one is hard if you can t get your leg high, but the more you practice, the better it will get :D And of course you can practice the splits themselves! Try to hold em for at least 15 seconds, but STOP when it hurts. Otherwise you ll hurt yourself, and that s not what you want :) Whan you get comfortable in your splits, you can lean forward over your frontleg to get an even better split. If you have troubles with flexibility in your back leg, you could try this exercise: Kneel down on one knee, and place your other leg in front of you (your knee should be in 90��). Put your other leg behind you, in a split stretch and try to push down as far as possible. You should feel a stretch in the muscle on your hip (don t know the name, you ll know what I mean when you try it :D). Do this a few times with both your legs, and your splits will get better.Finaly, a realy good stretch for your back is the cobra. But be careful with stretching your back! Don t overdo it, don t push to hard or you ll feel the pain afterwards! (maybe it s better to ask your dance teacher how many times and how long you should do this stretch, so you won t hurt your back!) So be careful! The stretch: Lay down on your stomach, and try to push your torso up, but keep your hip bones on the floor. You should feel the tretch in your lower back. Try doing this a few times. When your back is already a bit more flexible, you can try to bring your feet to your head while in the stretch, but stop when it hurts! After a while you ll get a more flexible back :) So, i hope this helped you a little. If my explanations weren t that clear, I ll try to explain again :) And keep up the good work, stretches only help when you do em on a regular base! But make sure you re warmed-up properly, and don t overdo it, otherwise you ll overstretch and you ll hurt yourself :)Good luck and have fun dancing !!! =D

the kicking sounds good but you can also do deep lunges, stretch in a half split (a split position with the back leg bent, backside is on the ground) then when ready slide into a full split and make sure you always warm up( jog in place,) before stretching. also while stretching breathe, relax and never hold a stretch longer than 30 seconds. you can also go online youtube has some good things you should check them out i hope this helps!!

do some 100 circles. on any flat surface put your leg up on it. make sure you don t do it above the hip if your not advanced. Remember it will take time for you to get more flexible. If you feel any pain stop RIGHT THERE!!! don t push yourself or you may get hurt

Uhm, kicking to 100 degrees can help. (: But once you don t feel any pain or feel comfortable with 100 degrees, increase the heght. :D It ll help. basically, I think flexibility depends on how much u practice. As they say, practice makes perfect. :D hope that helps! :DGood luck!
