Good carbs like celery and carrots will never make you fat. Bad carbs like cake will, but you don't need to know the whole science of glycemic index and load. It is mostly NOT your fault, if you need to lose weight. The way we have been taught to eat is responsible for making obesity the number one health problem in the world (according to Atlantic Monthly magazine) replacing hunger and infectious disease. You need to re-learn how to eat so you can become thin and healthy. Not a diet, but diet lifestyle.
Find out about fastest and QUICKEST way to lose weight, gradual ways to lose weight, most effective exercise, good and bad carbs and anti-water. Lose bodyfat and retained water which also makes you a lot fatter (bloated). Links page has gov. BMI calculater to find out just how much overweight you are (teens plug in your age to compare to others your age). Get latest info like American Heart Association does not want you to eat more than 6 ounces daily of meat, fish or poultry. Most important-- make sure to read the last "fat loss tip", first before anything else, to see the number one food that causes Americans to be fat.

I lost 23 pounds in less than a month on an extremely strict diet that did NOT limit the amount of times that I ate. I simply calorie crashed. I took in as few calories as possible, and as few fat gram as possible. I was around 210 before and under 190 after. Your body goes into immediate shock because it is used to taking in 2000, 2500 calories a day. I was taking in 700 calories or less in a day. I just shopped by label and ate small chicken breasts only. Drink water or those 5 calorie juice drinks. and eat more frequently, but smaller portions. Your body will still burn 750-1000 per meal as it is used to for a while but you will only be taking in 100- 150 which is auto weight loss.... I do not recommend doing this diet very long as it may have very bad side effects. And the truth is you will lose a lot of weight but it may be muscle weight mixed with the fat, so decide for yourself. It's not exactly healthy

That's five weeks away. You'd have to lose 3 pounds a week. A pound equals 3500 calories. To lose 1 pound a week (the safe and healthy way) you'd have to cut out 500 calories a day. You would need to cut out 1500 calories a day to accomplish your goal. Pretty darn hard to do.

Start excersizing at least 3 times a week, if only for a 1/2 hour. Then start slowly decreasing your sweets, your white bread products, fast food and your whole milk. Replace them with whole wheat bread prodcuts, low fat milk, protein, fruits and vegetables.
I know its hard, but you really want to do it, you will.
