Stop eating so much, for one.

Please don't think about losing weight fast at your age, b/c you can really hurt yourself esp. seeing as you're still growing.

Do your best to stay away from junk food like chips and greasy things. Eat smaller portions if you tend to eat a lot at once. The most important thing to remember is DO NOT STARVE YOURSELF! That really doesn't help at all. Your body goes into a "starvation mode" and actually tries to pack more fat on. Concentrate on eating smaller, healthier meals more times a day. ALWAYS eat breakfast and get 8 hrs of sleep. Drink lots of water too, and try to drink at least 8 glasses a day.

For exercise, try doing a lot of walking or bike riding. You can also do things like jumping jacks, skip rope or jogging in place. Don't overdo it though! 20 minutes at a time is enough when you've got your heart rate going fast. If you like dancing, try dancing to 4 or 5 fast songs in a row.

If you want to lose weight fast you need to sweat either by running or doing some kind of cardio. Billy Blanks cd works very well. You will lose water weight fast which should drop you a few pounds.

ok...well first off all ur only 11 so dont worry too much...the best thing to do is run (running will not only help use weight but it will help keep weight off as it increases ur metabloism (which breaks down fats and foods) other things u should do is ab work. You could also do things like step-ups to help get that heart rate up and burn calories (running stairs would help too) well i hope this helped you...but also remember losing weight and keeping it off isnt ez and doesnt magically happen...its going to take alot of work. good luck!!! contact me if u have ne more ?

Chill: you DO NOT need to lose any weight. First off: you're only 11. If you currently carry a tad of the "baby chub" on you in places....believe me: it'll soon disappear for you WILL grow out of it.

Be positive minded, relax and focus more on exercise than diet.

Homeopathic Treatment for Excessive Fat and Weight :-
PHYTOLACCA BERRY's Mother Tincture is perhaps the safest and sure fire way of loosing excessive fat around abdomen. With Phytolacca Berry once you loose the excessive fat and weight you don't get it back because you body takes care of itself after that and keeps you from gathering up excessive fat. It is prescribed after having a baby too, to get the tummy to loose its flab and to make it flatter and tighter. And after loosing weight with this you don't get flabby it tightens up the flab and skin along with helping your body to shed the excessive accumulation of fat around the girth
The dosage is 15 to 20 drops of the tincture in half a cup of hot water thrice a day half hour before or after meals.
Avoid Chocolates, Coffee, Mints, Red Meat and Carbonated and Alcoholic drinks while taking Homeopathic Medicines. You have to take it for at least 30 to 45 days after that you start to feel the results.
To the best of my knowledge its the safest and the most sure fire way of loosing fat and weight and keeping it of for keeps. Excellent remedy for Obese people who cant seem to shed weight despite trying.
Homeopathic Remedies can be found at all Major Herbal Stores or could be bought on line, In most of the world Homeopathic remedies are quite cheap and easy to find and they do not need a prescription.
Take care and God Bless !

a) losing weight fast is bad for you
b) the best way to lose weight and keep it off is to change your diet..eat more fruits & veggies, less junk food & cut out soda's ( I lost 10 lbs in a month just by cutting down soda and chips) and start exercising!

A FEW THINGS TO REMEMBER:
The correct way to burn fat and stay healthy is to burn more calories than you consume
You need to make sure you are eating healthy foods while still excercising
If you have a big appetite drink plenty of water so that you will feel full but not consume calories
But you should always eat
If you start to skip meals you will only be more hungry at your next meal and probably eat way too much
Remember, the average persons stomach is as big as a slice of pizza scrunched up into a ball
So you shouldnt be putting more food into your stomach than what fits
Also, it takes aproximately 15-20 minutes for your brain to realize that you are full
so eat slower and you will realize sooner when you are not hungry anymore

ALSO....
i found this artical called "50 Habits of "Naturally Thin" People
How to get Started:Decide how much you want to loose and see how many calories a day it will take to make it happen by year's end.Then, work into your routines however many of these eating tweaks and exercises you need to achieve your goal.
Slash 250 cal.s a day to lose about 25 lbs. in a year, Slash 500 cal.s to loose 50 pounds.
This is based on a 150-pound person: you may need to cut more/ fewer calories depending on ur weight, age & gender. It also assumes your normal calorie intake essentially stays the same and your weight is stable.
