Okay. To start with- you mean you want to loose FAT, not WEIGHT - am I right?...\nIts really easy to drop 3kg fast with no exercise...\nGet Dehydrated!!!\n(not smart!- Im not recomending it!)\nBut thats 3kg of water you'll be losing, the fat will still be  happily sitting in a tyre around your middle, butt etc.\n\n\nSo you want to loose fat.\nNow a lot of people think that if you dont eat at all or eat very little you'll loose the fat fast. I mean you're eating less, therefore your body will be burning fat for its energy instead of the food that you normally eat...\n...right?...WRONG!!!\n\nYour body goes into starvation mode (this is your bodies programmed response - a survival mechanism) \nIt says, "Hello- we're not getting any/enough fuel - we'd better conserve what we can so we can survive till more food comes along." So the first thing the body uses is the GLUCOSE in the blood and then the GLYCOGEN in the liver (stored energy source.) This doesnt last long at all - I'm talking hours. So the next thing it breaks down to use for energy is the MUSCLES because this is metabolically active tissue - basically it burns heaps of energy just existing in your body!!! So this is the obvious choice to burn next  as it is expending more energy just by existing (unlike the fat) so your body can conserve more energy by getting rid of this enegy-consuming tissue first. Then when your bodies used up as much muscle as it can manage it starts on the fat.\n\nBut you have to eat sooner or later. \n(or die.. thats the other option. But thats definatly not healthy like you specified!!!) \nSo you eat, but now your metabolism is slower cause you've got hardly any muscle cause you've used it all to fuel your body while in starvation mode. (remember muscle burns energy cause its a metabolically active tissue)\nSo your body generally uses less energy so you can eat less than before and still put on fat! Cause you'll have more surplus kj(energy) to store.\n\n\nNOTE: this is why guys can eat so much more and not put on weight like us girls!! They have generally 1/3 more muscle mass than us girls so their metabolism is that much faster!!!\n\n\nOkay. So you can see thats not a good idea. So 3 moderate and healthy meals plus 2 small healthy snacks if you need them is the way to go! It keeps your metabolism working efficiently. \n\nDO NOT EAT!!! - white rice, white bread, sugar, soda (even diet stuff- its so bad for you), take away, chips, all that crap!. You would be surprised what  a difference even that makes! \n\nINCREDIBLE FOODS: brown rice, fish (not battred or fried!!), chicken, vegies, a few eggs, some fruit. Oats are a great food for breakfast (not the processed kind)\nStick to that as your staples, carbs are fine just choose the right kinds, perhaps let yourself have a moderate treat 1 to 2 times per week so you dont crack and binge. Stick to this and you will have a diet to be jelous of!!! (cause it equals a truly hot body and no stress cause you know you are doing your health and apperance a favour!)\n\nNote: drink pleanty of water, the thirst mechanism of the body is so weak- its often mistaken for hunger.\n\nThis will help you loose weight. \nBUT...There is no such thing as loosing wieght fast and healthy without doing much exercise. You will have to do some to really be a knockout in that bikini!!!!  \n\na)  You will be burning up so much more energy so the fat   will go faster\n\nb) As you know know, you will develop more muscle so you will be burning those kj 24/7 - even while you sit on your arse!\n\n\nAnd it will give you tone, or you will still look squishy, even if you are slim. And even if you hate exercise - once you make a habit of it you will actually learn to love it! believe it or not!!!\n\nIf not- about 4 hours a week I think is a valuable sacrifice to look and feel great (+more energy) every day, all day!!!\n\nEven just try to walk at a good pace 30 to 60 mins, 4 to 5 days per week

well first of all i dont think that 130 for 13 is over weight. Alot of my friends are 12 and they weigh about 120+. But then again what do i know. i weigh 100. well im sure that alot of your weight must be muscle, but if you honestly want to lose weight then i suggest joining a school sport with your friends. That way you will be playing a sport (which is super fun) and you will be with ur friends. If that doesnt work then how about layin off all fattening foods for about a week. If you could get into the habit that would be best. If you can, try out for the swim team...if you have it, and that way you will be gaining muscle. right now my goal is to get flat abs. If you really put your mind to it then you can REALLY do it!! OK this sounds rreeeaaallllyyyy dorky, BUT IT WORKS....On a saturday or sunday when you have absoulutly NOTHING to do, put on some sweats and turn on the tv and go to the fitness channel or a channel that has one of those workout videos, and just follow those leaders. well i hope my advise helps you. Good Luck!!!!!

listen YOU ARE NOT FAT!!!!!!! 64kilo?what are you winging about, thats nothing! I h8 2 be a killjoy, but your father is right, some might say your a little skinny, dont turn into Nicole richie. If you want to LOOK (but not be, just with muscle weight) a bit skinnier, and also get a bit stronger, go swimming, its great, and fun, but remember to treat yourself if you reach a goal you wanted to get to. \nplz dont, but if u feel u must..... good luck!

You can lose a lot of weight between now and the summer if you work at it a little.   If you make a few life style changes you should be able to lose quite a lot of weight by July.  You need to have a deficit of 3500 calories to lose a pound, so don't try to do it too fast. This is a system that has worked well for me and several friends have also been successful with it.\n\n1. Eat three nutritious meals and three snacks everyday. Cut out junk food. You probably need about 1500 to 1800 calories a day. Many people make the mistake of not eating enough when they try to lose weight and then become discouraged.  Use the calculator at one of the links to figure out a sensible number of calories for you.\n\n2. Drink lots of water - at least 8 big glasses as day. Lots of water is essential. Stop drinking soda and other drinks with useless calories. Eat fresh fruit instead of fruit juices - the juices are very high in calories.\n\n3. Begin a simple weight lifting program at home or at a gym. Ordinary household items (tins of soup, for example) can actually serve as weights for beginners. Buy yourself a good weight lifting book for women. Actually the "dummies" series of books has done a rather good one.\n\n4. Walk, walk, walk. Buy yourself a pedometer and aim for 10,000 steps a day.  Start by walking around the block if that is what you can do now, and increase a little every day.  \n\n5. Record everything you eat and all your exercise to make sure you have a "calorie deficit". Two of the sites I've included will help you do that. Basically burning more calories than you take in leads to weight loss.  Remember you need a deficit of 3500 calories to lose one pound.\n\n6. If you drive, do less of it and park at the back of the parking lot instead of close to the door. Always use stairs - never the elevator or escalator.\n\n7. A mini stepper is an easy piece to equipment to have at home and gives great results. I bought mine at a second hand store for $4.   Even if you use it for a minute or two several times a day it can make a big difference.\n\nI hope these thoughts help. Be strong.  You can do this. Good luck with it.

Hey Dale Im in the same predicament I am 260 and Im only 5'8 so I need to loose about 120 pounds.  Now tomorrow I am going to begin with my diet which includes counting calories under 1200 a day but you just need to make sure you eat three healthy meals a day and dont waste them with stupid stuff like sweets or eating fast food. I dont know how much exercise you get a week but try to get some walking, jogging and if possible about 15 minutes of aerobics every other day.  Its good that you quit the soda now make sure drinking lots of water....Good luck maybe we can motivate each other Richtorres_2000 IM

First, you gotta love yourself and accept the way that you look right now.  After you have accepted the fact that your over weight, make small goals like losing 1-2 pounds a week. Eat smart and exercise hard at least 40 min. a day.  Everytime you look into your mirror, smile and let yourself know that all this hard work will pay off.  By August, you will be looking at that 125 princess from 5 years ago!! Good Luck!!

You are too young for a diet.  Just try to eat right and stay active. Please do not worry about your size.  You are just right according to the charts.\n\nActually a little more healthy eating would do you well.

Can you go to your family doctor and ask for a healthy diet?  I am not sure how old you are, i will take it that you are still in school, but take your time getting the weight down.  Set a goal to weigh 120 pounds by June...that gives you over 6 months to get down to the "goal" weight.  Just make sure you eat healthy and exercise.  REMEMBER!  if you are a young female that it is very important to take good care of you body..this is the same body that will carry babies on day and become a mother one day.  It is very important that you take GOOD CARE OF YOURSELF GETTING DOWN TO YOUR GOAL WEIGHT!

The first thing is to look at yourself as beautiful young lady, regardless of your weight. Next drink large amounts of water.  No junk food! Eat 6 small meals a day, if you must munch, munch on carrots or celery. Continue to exercise.  Alot of young people are doing through the same thing so don't feel alone.  The food in England is different and it may take time for you to adjust, plus your body is going thru hormone changes.  If you are a equestrian England is the prefect place to hone those skills and another excellent form of exercise.  I Also agree a trip to your physician is in order, his or her advice is much better than any of your mates will give you.  Enjoy this wonderful time in your life and believe that you are beautiful and you will be.

What you might like to do since you lost 16 pounds is you might like to go on a 1200 calorie diet and loose 2 lbs a week at a save rate.   There is a diet that calls for 1600 calories.  400 meat  400 vegetables 400 calories fruit and 400 condements or somes times other stuff.  Stay away from sugar and use sweet and low.best.  What ever you decide to do do it healthy and not fast as you will only gain it back later.  weight is a life style for ever.  get to your weight you want and try to keep it there .  Suger is a bad thing.   Priscilla  Ps I think 130 would be better for you. Make your decision in the reality phase not what friends say or do.

Yeah you do have a point but how much pain and illness do you want in your later years?  Im fourty two and years ago i didnt give it too much thought until the pain of my arthitis was so bad i could have chewed nails.  You wont realize this until  your my age anyway, it will be too late by then.  Also, you will gain about ten pounds for every ten years after the age of twenty.  No joke!  You wont realize this until your a size sixteen either.  Then its way too hard to take the weight off also!  Snack Happy!  Live as you want, but when its too late you might want to warn others of the impending problems from your detierated health from living vicarously in your younger years.  Life aint no picnic and it only gets better! Good luck.

you cant lose weight fast and be healthy, i dont think you should be worrying about this at your age , you are still growing and developing. Enjoy your life  each day and stop worrying about your weight, the worrying will put more weight on ......so stop i bet you are a beautiful person, be positive about the good parts of your nature and work on them instead. be happy.

Well. See, I used to be 150, and i went to 130 in THREE MONTHS. that's twenty pounds in three months. I am about the same height as you too. The first five poundsyou try to lose are the easiest, although the rest are kinda... you gotta be determined.\nNO SUGAR OR GREASY FOODS for a while. just cut all the fatty stuff out. If you need something sweet CHEW ON SUGAR FREE GUM. or fruit. =] cut down on carbs and meat and pile on the veggies and fruit. don't snack in between, chew gum and drink water.\n\ngood luck

Drink a lot of water and by a lot I mean A LOT! Also stay away from eating greasy fried foods. Don't ever eat until you are "stuffed" or "full" trust me you will lose weight if you keep exercising.
