Increase your water intake.  For every pound you weigh drink at least that many ounces of water.  Stay away from sugar, flour, dairy, transfat and fastfood, especially the McRib from McDonalds.\n\nGet at least 45 minutes per day of excercise.  If you have never excersised, start with 15-20 minutes per day for the first week, then increase it.

Forget calories:\n\nJust don't any bread (any)\nDon't drink any soda or crystal light\nNo red meat - chicken breast or turkey\n\nNo butter No mayo, no chips, no candy.\n\nIf these things are heavy in your diet, you will see huge results - 2-4lbs in a week.\n\nWork up a sweat and use 3lb weights and you look fabulous before school starts in the fall.\n\nIt takes 7 days to form a habit...21 to break it....suck it up for 22 days and the rest will be easy.

your body is still getting over its addiction to inappropriate food. this is natural, and although it makes things hard, you're just going to have to get there, to the point where good food is something your body accepts and wants. \n\ndrink lots of water. and i hope you're being serious that this diet is being followed by an actual doctor, because 1300 calories is insanely low if you actually do any physical activity. grains like oatmeal, or nuts--stuff with protein in it will help with feeling full too.

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

MAJOR exercise of some kind at LEAST three times a week.\nDrink 8 glasses of water a day, or more.\nWhen you feel like snacking, have something completely fatless - like herbal tea, celery, REAL fruit juice (not a fruit "drink" or "beverage" full of sugar).\nStop putting butter/margarine on your bread.\nStop putting cream/milk in your coffee/tea.\nPut up a picture of the body you want on the fridge and think positively about it when you're about to eat something you shouldn't.\nNO JUNK FOOD. PERIOD.\nSmaller portions.\nDon't go to the grocery store when you're hungry so you won't buy instant (unhealthy) foods.\n\nGood luck.

This is the fastest, but not the safest.  Cut your calorie intake really low.  Drink nothing but bottled water or flavored water with zero calories.  You don't need to do excercises, but it is a good idea since the weight drops so fast.  You will want to be firm.  You can drop 10-15 lbs a week.  Buy goldfish crackers and snack on them when you get hungry.  Celery has no calories.  If you are not disciplined enough to just eat like that for a few weeks.  Then go the whole day without eating and drink water only.  Eat 1 meal that is 500 calories or less.  It definitely works.

coming from a young women who ahs battled w/ weight her whole life, i can sit here and tell you this is a bad idea. when I was in hs I went from eating nothing but fruit, crakers and one diet coke a day. slowly it became only one coke and water...I lost weight, but have since then gained it back once I moved and went to college. It hurt my body in more ways than one.\nYou're only 13 and to start something so deadly is just wrong. EXERCISE....what do you enjoy doing? Basketball, walking or maybe if you have a trampoline try jumping on that for 3 hours a day. you'll be fit in no time. \nDon't worry, you have time to get rid of baby fat, don't be stupid and fast

Exercise and start calorie counting.  Work out your BMR and try to eat about 500 calories a day less than this.\n\nRunning is one of the best ways to lose weight, cycling, swimming, rowing are also very good.  If your not comfortable with these try dancing to your favorite music in your bedroom for an hour a day.\n\nDon't try to lose it too quickly, 2 pounds a week maximum, or your skin will not have time to adjust.\n\nGood luck.

I was 300 pounds on Christmas of 2005.  I am now 219 pounds, and I didn't take any diet pills or infomercial crap, and I didn't exercise at all.\n\nHere's how I did it:\n\nI eat one apple for breakfast.\n\nI have a sandwich (ham or turkey) and uncooked Italian green beans for lunch.\n\nI eat a large dinner, but only what will fit on one large plate without putting anything on top of anything else.\n\nI drink NOTHING BUT WATER.  No juice.  No soda.  No alcohol.  No diet drinks.  No kool aid.  No excuses.  No exceptions.  JUST WATER.\n\nI eat nothing other than my three meals a day.  No recreational eating AT ALL.  If it's not a part of one of my three meals in the day, I do not eat it.  No excuses.  No exceptions.\n\n\nIt may not sound easy, but it works.  No pills to buy.  No ridiculous energy drinks.  No exercising until you fall down.  Just proper diet.  Nothing else.\n\nI lost over 80 pounds in less than one year using NOTHING but the method I described above.  If you have willpower, go for it.  If you allow yourself to cheat on the diet, you are only cheating yourself.  Just buckle down and tell yourself you're going to do this the right way, and it WILL work.  Do it for one year, and I guarantee you that you will have the ability to get to whatever weight you desire.\n\nOr, you can keep trying all the fad's like Adkins and infomercials and pills, and keep wondering why they don't work.\n\nTrust me...a strict, proper diet is the ONLY sure fire way to lose weight and be healthy.  Exercise will help, but proper diet is all that is necessary.

Cardio.  \n\nIn order to lose that last bit of stomach weight, I had to become smaller than what I wanted in order for the remaining weight to drop in that area.  Once I did, I then, slowly put back on some weight with exercise.  \n\nHere are some other tips:\n\nThe holidays can be stressful... and unfortunately, many people reach for food as comfort. If you find yourself regularly eating in response to stress, anxiety, sadness, boredom, anger, loneliness, relationship problems, or poor self-esteem, try to break the habit with some of my strategies below.\n\nLearn to recognize your hunger. Before you automatically pop something into your mouth, rate your hunger on a scale of 1 to 5 -- 1 being ravenous and 5 being full. Make every effort to avoid eating when your hunger is a 4 or a 5. \n\nFind alternatives to eating. Make a personal list of activities you can do instead of eating. Perhaps go for a walk, call a friend, listen to music, take a hot shower/bath, exercise, clean your house, polish your nails, surf the Internet, schedule outstanding appointments, watch television, look through a photo album,  \n\nKeep a food journal. Logging your food will help to identify your toughest timeframes. It also will make you accountable... so perhaps you'll be less apt to reach for unnecessary food.\n\nThree-food interference. Make the commitment to first eat three specific healthy foods before starting on caloric comfort foods (i.e., an apple, handful of baby carrots and a yogurt). If after that, you still want to continue with your comfort foods, give yourself permission. However, most of the time, the three foods are enough to stop you from moving on.\n\nExercise regularly. Daily exercise relieves stress and puts you in a positive mindset, which provides greater strength to pass on the unhealthy fare. \n\nGet enough sleep. Research shows that sleep deprivation can increase hunger by decreasing Leptin levels, the appetite regulating hormone that signals fullness. With adequate sleep, you'll also be less tired and have more resolve to fight off the urge to grab foods for comfort.

I'm sure that I won't be the first person to tell you this.  Any quick weight loss fix like a patch or a pill is not the answer.  You need to change your diet to a healthy one and maintain an active lifestyle.  that's the ONLY way to lose weight with the exception of gastro-bypass surgery.
