Honey, you need to talk with your school nurse or counselor. You've been put in a really hard position, and it really isn't fair.

Hopefully a counselor will tell your mother that you need a nutritionist or dietitian to make out a schedule of food for you. you need help with cooking them, or maybe you get on a program like Jenny Craig, but something cheaper.  And you need help with the exercise. I can tell you that walking is the best exercise.  Start gradually and work up to a brisk walk of at least 30 minutes or way more. If you could just cut out sugar and white flour, fried foods, and fast food, and soda pop you'd be on your way.

Type in the white strip above: How do I lose weight?

It's been asked so many times, maybe you can figure this out on your own.  But please, tell a counselor everything you told us.

Good luck, Sweetheart.  With willpower and a few cooking lessons, maybe you can do this on your own.  But you need a list of what food to buy.  Good luck, Darling.  Everything will work out. Be patient.  you want to lose the weight slowly, anyway.  Good luck!  :)  (EDIT) If your Mom  brings you home Chinese or McDonald's, eat slowly, and quit when you're content.  Don't eat it all.  Never eat till you're full.  :) Lynn

(EDIT) Since I found out your age and gender, maybe you can get a girl to cook the food for you, or teach you how to. Good luck!  :) Lynn

Well first thing first, eat the right foods. If you eat a balanced diet, plenty of fruits and vegetables and less on the fatty and oily fats. Just by doing this will trim the pounds off. Plus you don't nessessarily HAVE to loose weight, you should just keep your body as healthy as possible. Then once you eat well for a  month to get your body used to it, no cheating please, try an active excersicing plan. And even if you can't nessessarily go to the gym-go ride a bike, take a jog on the beach, go shopping in the mall for a few hours and only use the stairs...in a few months you will shed the pounds and it will help you maintain a healthy weight. Like I said, you don't need to be in this image of 'skinny'-just be healthy, maintain confidence, and be proud of your body. Go shopping and get some clothes that fit your body well and have you look amazing and doing the shopping for a few hours, with going up and down the stairs and walking around different stores, you can get your excersise for the day. But remember that may lose you about 200-300 calories so don't head for the brownie to reward youself because that can be a whopping 700-800 calories; and the more you excersie the more you realize you don't need that extra cookie because it takes a lot more energy to try and burn those calories off. So good luck and I hope I helped.

Answer 5

I suggest that you start off easy. Do an activity you like that get's you active. It's best if you use a combination of weight-training and cardio. The more muscle you have the EASIER it is to lose the fat.

Eat 4-6 smaller meals throughout the day rather than 3 large meals. Get plenty of protein and slowly limit the calories. I suggest no less than 1500 calories a day.

These are the best weight-training exercises:

Shoulders: Military Press, Hang Clean and Press, Arnold Press

Arms: Close-Grip Chin-Up (w/palms facing toward your face), Dips, Close-Grip Pushup, Twisting Dumbbell Curl

Legs: Barbell Squat, Deadlift, Lunges

Back: Chin-Up, Pull-Down, Deadlift, Row

Chest: Push-Up, Dips, Bench Press

Do this for no more than 45-60min on Monday Wednesday and Friday.

For cardio I suggest that you do no more than 30-45 min per session. Do this on Tuesday and Thursday.

Support is very important so if you need further help you can email me @ [e-mail]

Hope this helps :)

Answer 6

stop eating the fast food, your mom sounds ignorant and naive to tell you to lose weight, and then buy you a chicken burgar rather than a salad from MCD's, you must be very unactive to gain weight like that too, start excercising everyday, it will just become a daily routine.
