What do you weigh at the moment? At 5ft6 and 13, you shouldn't really weigh more than about 140lb-145lb, but as your goal has to be realistic, aim to be at least 155lb. Good luck : )

You could cut your hair and use the restroom alot. Also wear lighter clothing. Good way to lose a pound or two REALLY fast :)

I think that is about 7 lbs and that is unhealthy. Weight loss should be about 2 lbs a week. Try and do it sensibly or it will all come back with a vengance.\nEat a lot of veggies and fruit this week and walk walk and run if you can.

Its not health to lose it "really quickly."\n\nIf you are dancing and walking that much, then it tends to suggest that your leg muscles are pretty toned, right?  Muscle weighs more than fat.  For your height, you are technically within the normal range if you have a large body frame.\n\nIf you are really concerned about it, then you should lower your caloric intake by about 500 calories a day.  it sounds like you get plenty of of exercise.  I think that you probably weight a little more due to muscle mass.  Muscle also holds onto water, which increases your weight.\n\nIf you want to lose weight, expect to do so by losing about 0.5 to 2 pounds per week.  Quick ways to lose that much weight at your current weight could be harmful.\n\nRegards,\nRyan

Hey, we are on the same page. I'm 5'3'' and I weigh 125. I used to weigh 107...so I need to lose 18 pounds. I know this sounds crazy.....but I lose weight by eating one meal a day. I'll snack on fruits and veggies only. Limit your calorie intake. Your body burns about 10 times your weight. So right now, your burn about 1,140 calories in a day. There are 3000 calories in a pound. Slowly cut back your intake. I lost 20 pounds in 2 1/2 months doing this. Try eating about 500 calories a day. then youll burn about 600 calories a day + whatever excercise you do. But always snack on healthy foods throughout the day or else your metabolism with slow. NO SODAS.FRIES.CANDY! limit your bread and pasta/rice intake as well.

I think you're an excellent weight. You can go to google and look up your BMI and that will tell you a healthy weight range to be in.\nA good rule of thumb for girls... 100 lbs. for 5 feet and 5 lbs. for every inch over. So... for you, that would be 135, and you're right there!

That sounds perfect to me.  I have a very athletic build.  I am solid (hard as a rock) muscle in my legs etc and I have some fat on my booty and a little softness to my stomach.  I am 5'4" and I weigh 140.  People ask me if I am anorexic.  Honest, true story.  It all depends on how you are built and I learned long ago that numbers don't really matter.  I am 140lbs but I am a size 4.  Do not listen to people who tell you about charts because there are many things charts do not take into consideration.  Muscle weighs so much more than fat and if your build is athletic and your body is dense you will weigh more than the chart says you should.  Charts tell me I need to lose weight.  If I lost weight I would look very, very unhealthy.  You sound like you are in the same boat.  You sound perfect to me!!!

You don't. Your best case senario depending on how much you way now and if you are male or female would be 32 pounds.  It's recommended you only lose 1 to 2 pounds a week to be healthy.  Besides, the slower you loose the more likely you are to keep it off.

You can't follow BMI 100%, it doesn't account for body type.  It is a good general indicator though.\n\nYou are 13 and 135lbs and 5'.  Don't go too crazy, you are still growing.\n\nYou can't lose 5-10lbs a day, don't bother trying.  If you are serious about losing weight, do your research.\n\n1.  Don't replace 1 soda a day, replace all sodas everyday (if you drink a lot of soda, cutting it out can make a huge difference right away).  Drink about a gallon of water daily (it is also a mild appetite suppresant=help you eat less)\n2.  Exercise 30 min to 1hr 4-5x a week.  Cardio (running, elliptical machine, stair machine, bike, etc).  Join a sports team or sign up for some activity like karate.\n3.  Can't just eat Lean Cuisine's and Lean Pockets.  Changing a diet is basically a lifestyle change.  Eat things like grilled chicken, veggies, etc. Don't eat junk food, no fast food (if you eat a lot of fast food, cutting that out of your diet will make a huge difference immediately)\n4.  Depends on the person, but cutting out sodas and fast food can cut down your daily caloric intake big time also.\n\n\nUse the internet!  Do your research!!  Read health forums online! \n\nGood luck!

At 13 losing weight is not something you should be trying to do in 2 weeks...anyone who answers this question can only lead you to something that is certainly harmful to your body. You have not specified why you feel you must lose weight or how much weight you are talking about losing a pound, inches off your waist.....

All you need to do is check one of those BMI index things.  I put in your height and tried some weights.  It would be normal for you to weigh from about 101 to 135 pounds.

Actually, your BMI is 20.9 and you are in the lower spectrum of the normal range for your height. (A normal BMI is 18.5 to 24.9, not considering your natural body shape or waist size)\n\nYou don't need to lose weight, but eating healthier and exercising are the only surefire ways to tone up and look better. My guess would be that you don't need to lose weight, but maybe you just need to tone up. Many people feel like they're heavy, but they just don't make an extra point of working out and so they don't develop their muscles. Lift light weights to tone muscles but not get them too big. And cardio is always a great type of exercise!

how tall are you?  should you weigh 160-170lbs?  That's alot of weight to lose in less than 2 months.  You better go on a very strict diet, no more than 500cal/day, drink loads of water, and do cardio work out for a minimum of 4 hours a day, you have to burn that flab off if you want to lose that much that fast.  Do a couple hours of light weights too.  You will have to burn about 4 times your daily intake, at least.

I would say to first look at what you're eating and change your diet to eating alot of fruits and vegetables.  The trick to losing weight isn't about only working out, but it's about changing your lifestyle.  Your goal is to burn calories but also to keep what your body needs to stay healthy.  Depending on what you're trying to do, limit your caloric intake to 1200-1500 calories a day.  Don't cut out all carbs together, but if you like to eat alot of bread, treat yourself once a week to that bagel, or pasta dish, etc.  Your body will have a tendency to store fat in certain places rather than others.  My stomach is where all of my fat stores.  When I started working out, I noticed that although I was working my abs, I started losing inches in my love handle, back and butt areas.  This is because that is where it's easiest to burn off first.  Your fat will turn to muscle gradually and evenutally your belly will follow and you will have a six pack--but you have to be patient!  I use the Billy Blanks DVD's.  I have the Fat Blasting Cardio, and the Billy's Bootcamp.  Trust me, they work wonders.  Within two weeks, I noticed a change in how my pants fit me--however, I didn't lose any weight.  This is because I was turning muscle into fat.  Muscle weighs more than fat.  You need to be focused on losing inches.  Good luck!!!

No, that is a VERY good weight for you height. If you lose any more, you will be underweight. Just keep eating healthy and excersizing, and you'll be fine!
