I can't swim.

Swimming is a great way. What you should do is everyday tread in the water for about 2 minutes it moves around all the excess fat to help get rid of it.
[tread means just kicking your legs and not touching the ground]

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.
I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.
It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.
Get started today!

Try a dance class or aerobics--there are belly dancing DVDs and if you start now, you'll be shimmying like Shakira in no time. Try sports--I know it can be embarrassing if you really suck at them, but you can burn a LOT of calories when you mess up, sometimes more than if you're an expert because you have to correct your mistakes.
I wonder if you've had your last big growth spurt. When I was 10-11, I grew about 6 inches--you're probably due for some more growing up. That'll help redistribute your weight better, too (not that it's a substitute for exercise, but it'll definitely help you look thinner.) Puberty does some weird things, but one of the nice things is that it's a lot easier to lose weight since your muscles are developing some on their own. Muscles burn calories even when you're resting--it's better to have muscle than fat because fat causes hormones to be released that help make you fatter. Don't lift weights--your muscles and bones are still growing and you don't want to stress them out more. But definitely do weight-bearing exercise, since it'll strengthen your bones. I mean, like walking, running, dancing--stuff on your feet. Swimming's good, but don't neglect stuff that will get you on your feet. Good luck!

Unfortunately, you can't lose weight in a fun way and without changing the way you eat... If losing weight was simple and fun, do you think everyone would complain that much?

control man control, 60 to 70 pounds in such a small time, anyway try this it may help you, first thing in the morning, take 1. table spoon of an apple vinnegar in a glass of warm water, and then go out for running or jogging or at least go for working for 1or 2hrs, or if you can jump the rop that will be much better, and you'll see the results.

food is just energy. you eat it...then either you burn it off by using energy...or, you store it.
If you won't change the way you eat, that's not such a big deal...but it means you definitely have to change your energy USAGE...in other words, get more exercise. DDR for an hour+ a day would be good...but it would have to be constant, not stopping and starting.
I would say start running or something. Or biking. Or swimming. Or get into soccer. Or wrestling, or football. If NOTHING sounds good for burning energy...then you have no choice but to eat better.
Its pretty straight forward though...its gonna be one or the other.

You can weigh anywhere from 21-58 kg (46 to 127 lbs) at your age depending on your height according to the site below. You're fine, don't worry about it.
