There is a special exercise, it's relatively easy to do, and a sure absolutely fail safe way to loose weight without dieting. It's called the push*back and here's how.
Sit up straight in front of your plate of food, bowl of chips, whatever, push your chair straight back away from the table, and get up.
Worked for me, it'll work for you

I hope this answer helps you. Its a few basic things you can do on your own at home to help you lose weight.
Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking if that applies. Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart. You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself. Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of. It needs to be diluted. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without. Then work from there. Remember these are perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it. If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day. Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit. Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night. You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly. This is an important factor of losing weight. Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.
As for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me. Also for more info on the benefits of water go to www.watercure.com Good Luck! Honestly if you need anything else don't hesitate to IM me, krista_girl86 even if you don't pick me as best answer, i'd be happy to help. Also check out the website for the tv show The Biggest Loser on NBC. There are many, many helpful facts on there.

To lose weight and keep it off make lifestyle changes. Write down all the bad habits htta make you eat too many calories in a day, then come up with ways to stop any binging or junk food intake. Always make sure you eat loads of fruit and veg as this will not only fill you up, it will provide you with loads of vitamins and minerals and help you look and feel healthy. Don't miss breakfast as this will slow your metabolism, reduce carbohydrate intake in the afternoon and evening and drink plenty of water. Don't eat any junk food, sugary drinks, alcohol or high saturated fat foods (still include oily fish in your diet).
Try taking up running, cycling etc or even a proper sport like soccer. All these will help burn additional calories each day and reduce your body fat.
Exercise has lost of benefits, makes you feel better, makes you look better, makes you healthier, helps you concentrate, helps you socialise and can even reduce your chance of getting cancers and other illnesses.

Krista is full of crap:
"Some juice but make sure its all natural, because the ones that aren't are loaded with sugar and a leading cause in diabetes in children and adults. "
BS. Natural juices have sugar also. And there's no proven link between juice and diabetes.
"Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer."
More BS. No proof that drinking water is helpful. All this is good for is making you pee a lot.
"Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart."
WHAT?? This is total crap. There is NO evidence to support this BS. (where does she get this?) Your body does NOT need extra water to "pick out" nutrients. What an absurd concept.
"You also need to stay away from any sports drinks unless you’ve just had a long workout and then you need to limit yourself. Most atheletes mix Gatorade with water because its two [sic] complex for your body to get all the nutrients out of. It needs to be diluted. "
More crap and BS. The science behind Gatorade has been going on for 30 years and there's NO evidence of any "need" to dilute it. It works just fine as-is. Again, your body does NOT need extra water to "pick out" nutrients.
Don't take diet advice from uneducated 19 year olds. It's full of myth and folklore, sadly lacking in truth and science.

What is the reason that you can't go on a diet??? I wanted to lose 10-15 pounds and I went to GNC and bought some Hydroxycut. it really helps to curb your appetite. But you should should also try to exercise walk, jog whatever anything that gets you moving!

Run, 5 miles 6 times a week, cut out all in between meal eating and skip dinner. Weight will drop off even after first 9 runs. work towards a 40 min time.

Try to eat healthy...at least a couple pieces of fruit and veggies a day and GOOD protein (like skinless, broiled chicken)
Go for a walk for 20-30 minutes daily. And not a slow, meandering walk, but a brisk pace.
NO MORE JUNK FOOD!
If I could do it, anyone can!
Good luck

Hm... One alternate other than dieting is getting more excercise. Try taking walks more often, clean or anything that involves even just a little more movement. As for the job, if I were you, I would list good reasons to your parents why you think you should have a job and explain to them you are sure you are ready for one.

Getting a job won't help you loose weight. Try eating more yellow foods, and moving around more. Why don't your parents want you to get a job. Do you want to swap places with my daughter, she does not want to get a job, and I need her to get one.
