Answer 3

I find that to lose weight, you have to figure out what makes you gain it:

Is it the temptations around you?-Tell your parents to lock it up or even better don't buy the cookies and chips

Is it stress eating or eating because you are bored?- Make a conscience descision that when you get the urge that you will grab a carrot, apple or water

Do you get enough cardio exercise?- Dance is good exercise, but most dancers need more cardio. Try jumping rope, swimming, running, or riding a bike.

There are, of course other weight gain reasons. Deciding the root of your problems is the first step.

Other tips:

1. Drink LOTS of H2O

2. Eat Breakfast

3. Don't think about dieting because then you will have food on your mind making you hungry

4. Don't eat after 7

5. No soft drinks or fast food

6. Write what you eat down. You may be surprised

I am sure that you aren't as bad as you think. Losing weight is annoying, but you can do it. Keep up the good work!
