Answer 1

Just eat plenty of Green fruits and vegetables. Avoid eating too much meat.

Try very hard to avoid ALL fast food or things from a can.

And, only eat what you SHOULD eat, not all you CAN eat.

Answer 2

Focus on healthy eating, lowfat, lots of fruits and veggies, moderate sugar, avoid meat and anything fried or containing oil. The only thing you shouldn't be doing at your age is restricting calories because it will inhibit growth (and being taller will make you look leaner and burn more calories later in life).

To lose inches, exercise as much as possible. I walked everywhere I wanted to go at that age and it helped me wonderfully (still do). When I was a few years older, I started strength training and that did even more for my body. Good luck

Answer 3

Okay, here's your answer....

Losing weight really is as simple as basic addition and subtraction. If the calories you eat add up to more than what you burn in a given time period, you will gain weight. Conversely, if you eat fewer calories than you burn, you will lose weight. Depending on your size and activity level, the number of calories will vary quite a bit. The secret is finding your “break even” calorie intake level. For most people, the “ball park” figure will be around 1800 to 2000 calories per day. If you are larger than average, this number will be higher, lower if you are smaller than average. Metabolic rate can have an effect on these numbers as well. Exercise plays an important role also, as this can increase the number of calories you burn by quite a bit as well as increasing your metabolic rate.

If you want a generally healthy diet that’s easy to follow and avoids hunger, the one I recommend will do the job very well. You can fill up and still lose weight. Eat lots of fresh vegetables as they contain very few calories yet are full of good nutrition. The less you cook them, the more nutrition they retain. Stick with whole grains, as they tend to be better for you and don’t turn to sugar as readily as processed grains do. For example, whole grain bread is much better for you than plain white bread. Eat a variety of fruit on a daily basis. Avoid empty carbs, fats, and sugars…. Examples: junk food and soda. If you feel you need protein to build muscle, add some chicken or fish to your diet. Avoid beef and dairy products, the cons outweigh the pros.

If you can’t get your mind into the ‘eat to live; don’t live to eat mode‘, you should probably read this short article on the psychology behind overeating:
