What exercises can I do to help me lose weight?

Question

I'm 15 years old, 5'8" and 165 pounds. My doctor told me that I'm not overweight but I still have some extra fat that I'd like to lose, especially around my stomach area.

I have a treadmill, but it's manual not automatic, so I can't really run on it, plus it's a bit harder to use. I don't have any other exercise machines, but I do have one of those large exercise balls and a yoga mat.

I'd like to go jogging outside, but I'm afraid that people are going to look at me.

I used to be 170 pounds, but recently lost 5 pounds from eating a bit less. I want to lose just 20 more to kind of speed of the process. What exercises can I do at home to help me lose those 20 pounds?

• Here you go. It is not that hard to lose weight. You simply have to burn more calories than you take in.

Don’t less all this blow confuse you remember all you have to do to lose weight is to burn more calories than you take in.

I weight about 210which means I must eat about 2500 cal a day to maintain weight. To cut fat I drop down to 1900 cal a day, eating every 2 or 3 hours. Every meal revolving around protein. I only eat complex carbs, no refined carbs (ex look at the ingredients in bread if it is enriched or bleached then it is not 100% wheat) I also don’t eat carbs after2 o’clock. As for cardio I do HITT training (Google that) HITT will allow you to burn fat while maintaining muscle. I also do some weights 3 times a week. if you don’t want to work out or work out so much you simply must eat less because you are not working out to expend the cal. Weights are good because muscle building will actually burn muscle.

Breakfast Cereal with low fat milk and Low cal protein shake( muscle milk light or gold standard whey)

mid morning snake" Nuts of some sort, or maybe some cheese( I can’t think of other good snakes right now)

Lunch: Sandwich with 100%whole wheat bread veggies and some kind of meat with low % fat (you want to stay away from fat) keep it blow say 10% or even lower when it comes to meat

Mid afternoon snack ( some kind of snack loaded with protein like nuts or another protein shake if you can handle that)

Dinner ( don’t eat a big dinner) Lean source of protein like chicken, lean ground beef, top sirloin stake,

bedtime if you go to bed around 10 and need a snack eat some low fat cottage cheese around 9 or so

I think this diet can get you started but you need to find out what cal intake you need. There are web sites that can assist with that according to your weight and activity level.
