How can I lose weight fast?

I'm 16 and I have kidney problems. I was diagnosed when I was 14 and have struggled since with weight gain. I take prednisone which is a steroid that causes me to rapidly gain weight. I have gained 45 pounds since September. I am 5 10 and was told that I should weigh around 175-180. Whenever I run, I constantly out of breathe within 30 seconds. Please help me.

How to Lose Weight By Eating Fruits

Recommended Answer:

You should try lifting weights or other strength training (push ups, planks, squats, etc). It'll help you build a lot of muscle. You might not lose that much WEIGHT since you're gaining muscle, but it'll help you tone your body and lose fat. As long as you're healthy that's fine though.Running, while a quick way to burn fat, can be very hard on your body. But it might not be a bad idea to build up your cardio anyway. Try the bike or elliptical, or try running for short amounts of time and slowly building it up.Good luck!

Other Answers:

• drink lots of water...and start with walking long distances. You can run later but walking is so good for you. Try to walk 30 minutes a day fairly quickly.
• Try diet with healthy foods and <1200 calories per days. Eat less and more meals. 30mins of exercise per day can be walking, running or swimming. Cheers!
• Don't force yourself. I would suggest that you ask a doctor first if its okay and what work outs can you do that won't harm your health. Also eat healthy. No junkfood or soda. Drink lots of water, it helps your kidneys and it helps you stay healthy.
• Do some walking, and really focus on a good diet. If you want to loose some weight quickly (I'm talking around five or ten pounds) in a few days, I would suggest a juice cleanse (check out this link: http://healthfulsummer.blogspot.com/2013/06/juice-cleanse-time.html), but otherwise, there is no quick solution to losing weight. It takes diligence and dedication. But with your kidney problems, I would talk to a doctor before starting any weight loss program.
