Teenage girl diet advice please?

I'm 16 year old girl. I've never been skinny. I'm 5'4 and 118 lbs. I have a lot of fat on my belly and inner tights. On the contrary I have very skinny-looking arms and small boobs. I would like to be like my friends. They're the same age and eat even junk food, sweets, don't drink enough water... and they're sooo skinny and they have no acne. I do have and I clean my face twice a day. I've already lost about 11lbs but my belly fat and inner-thigh fat is still there.Q: what diet should a girl like me have? E.g.: Should I go vegan, or what?? I want it to be healthy for me, not something extreme :)

How to Lose Weight Fast With Yoga

Recommended Answer:

Run. I used to have really skinny legs but now their in shape, plus it toned my belly so I have abs. I run & do core abs after that. To clear my face, I use oatmeal (I got the idea from bubz beauty from YouTube) & it totally works! I had horrible acne. Oh & eat right. 3 meals a day.

Other Answers:

• Diet is only half of the equation. Personally I just do less food and more working out. I recommend running. Maybe sign up for Cross country.

How to Be Lazy and Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:

You're not fat. I think what you actually want is toning, and to start working all the muscle groups. So start doing crunches, squats, lunges, etc and it should fix the spots you want. Don't worry, you won't build up like a guy, girls just nicely tone and look good :)

Other Answers:

• I lost 22 pounds on the Atkins diet in a couple of weeks. I also exercised every couple of days when I was on the diet. After about a week on the diet your appetite really disappears.

Is 4 months enough to see results from the gym?

I''m 20, I''m a girl, I weigh 135. I want to go down to my normal weight which was always 115. I will be going to the gym 4-5 times a week and staying there for 2 hours. 1 hour and 20 minutes doing cardio and the other 40 using those weight machines. And I will also be doing situps, crunches, and all that at home. I eat a healthy diet, no fast food, no junk food, no soda. I drink plenty of water. I want to be thinner by June. That''s when it gets really hot where I live and I want to have a nice body again for summer. So will 4 months be enough time for me to see changes and have a flatter stomach?

I want to lose about 20 pounds by July. Can you give your opinions?

Hi! So for more info, I''m a 16 year old girl, I''m 5''5'''' and weigh roughly 150 pounds. Also, I''m a medium build. I would like to lose 20 or so pounds by July. I''m thinking about jogging/running about 4 times a week for 45-60 minutes each time. I''m also thinking about doing Pilates 3 times a week, possibly more. I''m currently doing research on how to eat a bit more healthily. Do you guys think that this is reasonable? Should I add anything? Any tips? I''m basically a beginner runner as well. Thank you all for your answers c:

Lose Weight For Free Fast And The Foods That Help You Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
First of all hey ;}. Im 16 nd a guy btw. Haha. Awight thats definitely a reasonable goal. Not watching wat u eat can easily make this way more difficult. Dnt over work your body. If your not used to this much exercise start off jogging first cuz u could snap some shiFt. Nd if u pull a muscle or twist ur ankle (very easy to do for begginers) ur gonna have to recover nd ultimately hinder your progress :/ Cut out all tha sugary drinks nd powerade nd stuff. Feed your body with the all nutrients nd vitamins it needs. Nd ur already at a good weight im 5''6 nd 170. Nd were still growing soo yeah having a Healthy body is kinda first priority? The body runs on Protein, Carbs, and Fat. I eat more than i burn(a caloric surplus) cuz im making (muscle) gains. To lose weight you need calorie deficiency(burn more cals than you eat). Slow and steady wins tha race.Good luck mah niqqah :). Hope i helped!

• That seems reasonable to me.
• Use more calories than you consume = Weight loss
• You''ll only lose the pounds if you actually do the exercise and eat somewhat healthy, everyone with a common education knows what a good diet is.
  
  If you''re really desperate then eat 100 sour warheads because it will screw up your tongue and you won''t be able to eat for about a week
• If youre a begginer jogger youll never survive for 45 minutes of pacing. So increase with time
• Jogging 45 minutes a day for a beginner is unreasonable, you''ll hurt yourself and won''t be able to continue. Safe and healthy weight loss is about 1.5 lbs. a week so you can probably get close to your goal. Some of this depends on what you''ve ben eating. It''s harder for a healthy eater to lose than for someone whose diet is very high in salt, fat and sugar. Your best bet might be to drop all sweets and processed foods, lower the carbs, increase the lean protein and do about half the exercise you''ve listed in your question. Drink a lot of water, cut out all soda (including diet drinks that mess with your insulin levels), alcohol and limit the caffeine. Also don''t get obsessed, healthy is a lifetime thing not a quick fix to squeeze into a dress for one event. Good luck.

Can anyone give me a healthy foods list? CHEAP?

I am only 15, I really really really need to lose weight. I''m talking about 100+ pounds. I weigh 215 pounds, and I''m 5''1. NOT ATTRACTIVE AT ALL!!

So I was wondering if I could get a shopping list, I only have 15$ to spend though, because I don''t have a job, and I barley ever get money. I need to buy it myself so that It will be eaten by ME an not everyone else. The reason I also need to buy it, is because No one wants to eat health foods at my house, so please HELP ME :( ??

How to Lose Weight?

Recommended Answer:
Heathly foods don''t have to be expensive. You should aim to eat lean protiens, complex carbohydrates, and healthy fats at each meal. Some inexpensive sources of protien are natural peanut butter (look for brands that have the least amount of added sugar,) non fat greek yogurt, and eggs. Try to add as much whole and minimally cooked fruits and vegetables to your meals as you can, too. You could eat celery sticks with your peanut butter, or a banana with your yogurt. Hard boiled eggs are easy to carry and keep in the frige for 2 weeks. Try to encourage your family to try a more healthy side dish at a couple of weekly meals. Read about nutrition and healthy recipes and offer to cook a healthy dish for the family occasionally. Even if you have to eat what the family wants to eat, just eat less and exercise. Walking is the best exercise that you can do. Easy, cheap, and you can do it in a mall, on the sidewalk, or anywhere you can. Upping your activity level is the best way to start losing the pounds. I did it and lost 180 lbs in 2 years. Walking started the weight loss and as the weight came off, I got more encouraged to revise my diet. When you learn about nutrition, you will be able to adjust your menu to your wallet. Don''t give up, it will be worth it to have a healthy and attractive looking body.

• ask your doctor.
• Fresh fruits and veggies are inexpensive and healthy.
  Beans and rice, brown rice is healthiest.
  
  I suggest using a calorie counting tool, like on myfitnesspal.com. Remember also, you can burn the calories you eat by staying active.
• 15 bucks ain''t gonna buy ya nothin sorry

What are the effects of eating just one full meal a day?

Okay, so I''m planning to lose some belly fats so yeah. I started eating just a full meal everyday and a small amount of food intake in the other meals like some biscuits or fruits. Will it help?? And what excercise can I do?? Those that don''t require any tool if possible. Thanks. I''m 13 btw.

Stop Trying to Lose Weight

Recommended Answer:
It''s not healthy to eat one meal a day even for a fully grown adult, let alone a 13 year old. Your body''s like a car - a car needs petrol to run, and you need food for energy so you can get through the day. You won''t lose weight by starving yourself - you''ll lose weight by eating the right foods and exercising.

Instead of cutting down how much you eat, cut down the fat and sugar in your food. If you don''t know how to read a label, ask your parents or an older sibling or whatever, and find out how much your daily intake for certain foods should be. Eat lots of food with protein, iron, vitamins and minerals (and a bit of carbohydrates), like wholemeal breads, rice and pasta, lean meats and fish, vegetables (beans especially!), eggs and nuts and seeds. You can snack as much as you like, but make sure its not junk food like chips or chocolate bars.

As for exercise, walking is probably the easiest and best thing you can do. I like walking myself, because I don''t need any special equipment and I can do it at my pace. The trick is to modify for your needs. A very fit person will need to walk faster to achieve the same result as an unfit person. Go for a walk and as soon as you feel out of breath, slow down a little. It does nothing for you to be huffing and puffing and feeling as though you''re gonna collapse. Once you''ve done this for a little while, you''ll find it gets much easier, and you''ll be able to modify even more to suit your new fitness level.

I used to struggle with my weight quite a bit and I felt very insecure about it. Good luck, and I hope this helps! If you have any more questions you can email me at katiekoalabear@ymail.com if you like.

And NO do not listen to people when they say you need to eat 500 calories a day - you''ll starve!

• Listen little buddy , you are not doing that.
  Why? , because no one in this world would say so , and its not reasonable.
  you need to eat 3 meals a day low in calories . if you want to lose a pound of Fat
  you need to eat 500 calories a day. why?
  1 pound of fat = 3500 calories
  500 calories a day x 7 days a week = 3500 calories.
  Easy math.
  
  so there you go , Not just eating a big ol''meal a day its not gonna help you at all
  
  Hope it helps.
• 1200 calories are necessary. Anything else slows metabolism
  Depending on if you eat anything else eating 1 full meal a day will also slow your metabolism
  
  
  Exercise - cardio. That is running, walking, biking, swimming,ect
  Takes months to lose weight. Eat healthy, dirnk plenty of water.
• Eating one meal a day would probably more likely put your body into starvation and start eating muscular rather than fat. Your body requires a certain amount of calorie consumption a day even if you just lie in the bed whole day with your eyes open, you should aim for the suggested amount of daily calories as a minimum & when your metabolic rate is balanced only then will you start burning fat.

Lose Weight the Right Way and Keep it Off

Recommended Answer:
if you do what some silly people do

excessive cardio and starving and not feeding the right amount of calories then yes you will.

do moderate cardio daily 30 minutes
eat smaller portions of a baanced diet
and dont starve , simply eat your reccomended daily calories for your height and age

and dont lose it too fast for some wedding prom, holday or whatever

lose it slowly as it is a life choice. not a two week binge like some people seem to think it is.

• No way! just do cardio eat right! and u will loose it!!
  
  Do Insanity work out, thats what i''m doing and in just 2 weeks i already see results!
• If you do cardio and crunches/sit ups, you''ll tone your ''saggy belly'' and it''ll be ''sexy'' :)

Rapid Weight Loss Sucks - Why Losing Weight Fast Doesn''t Work and What You Can Do About It

Recommended Answer:
Losing weight is about 80% what you eat and 20% exercise, so focus on what you''re eating. Change your lifestyle, don''t go on a diet. Eat less junk/fast/fried foods and focus on eating a variety of foods including fruits and vegetables, but also lean proteins (chicken, turkey, fish, lean beef, plain greek yogurt), healthy fats (olive oil, avocado, nuts, hummus), brown rice, oatmeal, milk, low fat cheese, whole wheat bread, etc. If you feel hungry, ask yourself, "Do I want some vegetables or just junk food?" If the answer is junk food, then you''re not really hungry. Drink a big glass of water and wait 20 minutes. If you still feel hungry, but not for vegetables, then go do something else to keep yourself busy like text a friend or read a book.

If you change your lifestyle and get committed to eating healthier and working out, then you will never have to worry about losing weight for the rest of your life! Doesn''t that sound great?! It does to me.

You can''t rush weight loss because you will end up with saggy skin from losing too fast. However, because your starting weight is high, you will be able to lose pretty fast for awhile, but do it smart and you will look great. Exercise is important too, but you don''t have to exercise to lose weight, but it makes you look better. Stick to walking right now and just do as much as you can. Tomorrow, try to do a little more and the same thing for every time you work out. This way you''ll push yourself a little and gain more progress. If you feel burning or stitches, then slow down until they stop.

I would suggest joining a free website called SparkTeens.com. It''s a place where people who want to get healthier can get some guidance and support, but it''s geared towards teenagers. You can connect with other teens trying to get healthier and lose weight and see what''s working for them. Good luck!
