When I heard your question I felt for you. That is so great you are working out at your age. You should be proud of yourself. I have a son that is overweight too!  He is only 9 years old but I have been on a product that is so amazing and I have been able to release 65 lbs. in such a short time.  My son has this product every morning and so does my daughter and little son.  With this product it works with your body you build muscle mass and loss weight at the same time.  Did you know that muscle weighs more then fat? It does maybe you are just gaining muscle mass and losing inches. Let me know if you want to hear more.

umm since u only have 10llb dumbells, best way is to go to sports authority to buy a bit heavier ones n do reps with those-there are like over 30 different exercises u can do with dumbells/pushups/dips n like that to build upper body muscle...doing 2hrs cardio n other stuff is great! keep that up, but in case u dont have 10lb dumbells u can try what i did for tkd training-uh its kinda old fashioned but whatever u get 2 buckets or something least that has a handle n fill it up with sand/rocks/dirt n do reps with those-almost same as dumbells but exercsies r bit different than w/ dumbells
