How much do I need to jump rope to lose weight?

I'm 14, and about 5'1 and roughly 100- 105 pounds. I know that doesn't sound like im fat or anything, but my body just looks extremely unhealthy. I have a pretty fat stomach and thighs. will jump roping 10 minutes a day help me lose some of the fat? or 15 minutes? If so, how long will it take? please dont give me the "you dont need to lose weight" bullshit. my diets not bad but I could change it. I also swim 50 minutes 3 - 4 days a week.I just recently joined a swim team so that's why i havent seen that big of a difference. thank you so much if you answer! :)

How to Lose Weight Without Relying on Exercise

Recommended Answer:

The extra swimming you do is great and will really help you tone your body and muscles. The best thing you said here is jump roping. Not only is it incredible for burning fat and losing weight but the act of jumping at your age will help you grow taller which in turn will make you look leaner.As for the diet at your age simply don't overdo anything and replace maybe 1 or 2 bad choice you have per day with a healthy thing you like. For example I love strawberries and I also love chocolate. I replace the chips with a bowl of strawberries and the bowl of chocolate ice cream or chocolate bar with a 90 cal fiber one chocolate brownie. Remember unhealthy food are only going to give you temporary happiness. You eat them then the happiness is gone. Make smart choices with your food and keep up the jump roping you'll be in the best shape of your life within 2-3 weeks trust me.
