you should put less emphasis on pounds and more emphasis on what you want to change. you can do this by looking in a mirror covering up or pulling back parts you don't like (like inner thighs or love handles) to see what you would look like with that area more toned.
then you do exercises focusing on that area, along with cardio (like riding a bike or jogging.. or jumping jacks..) at least 3 days a week. i started at 3 days because it was managable and now i do it every day.
then try to eat as many fresh foods as possible. i don't know how late in your teens you are, but if you can cook for yourself it's ideal because then you know exactly what's going into what you're eating. experiment with spices. don't eat crap like meatloaf and fried chicken. it's easy if you think about it.

hi dear, i will tell u what i did, i lost 10 pounds by 2 things, u have to create calorie deficit, first change ur diet, u have to, no pain no gain, so have bran cereal with skim milk in morning, take an apple or any fruit for snack and regular lunch and then boiled veggies for dinner, it would work better if u take 100% raw veggies as salad without dressing and if u want dressing, use vinegar and lemon, nothing else and take fruits and second go to health food store get 2 bottlles of apple cider vinegar and papaya enzyme, take 2 of each before every meal, this will help u loose weight as it will increase ur metabolism significantly which is necessary for losing weight and plus if u exercise on elliptical for 20 minutes for 5 days and do weights for 20 minutes for 3 days, u will have great body, just don't focus on numbers, try to focus on shape, one more thing keep urself hydrated, it also helps loose weight, stay motivated and work hard, u will be proud of urself and best of luck!

Excersise at least 5 days a week, don't eat chocolate, don't put cheese on your sandwiches. When you're cooking use chicken broth instead of butter or margarine. Jogging is VERY important.

You probably just need to tone up. I would try the exercise system from 'The Firm'. It is a fun workout and works quickly.
