Answer 1

Only drink water...not soda! If you must drink soda, drink diet. If you eat a lot of bread, make sure it is whole wheat. No fast food...ever! Just eat right and you should be fine!

Answer 2

Exercise isn't very effective at weight loss until you're pushing yourself hard for several hours a day. This is part of the secret of The Biggest Loser TV show and why they can lose 8-20 lbs each week.

If you're a teenager, try cutting back on junk food. Skip soda or pick diet soda. Pick chicken & fish & veggies more often. Pick smaller amounts of starches like pasta, rice, potatoes & bread.

Ask your mom to make salads for dinner (or make them yourself and help her out!)

Remember you have to burn 3500 calories to lose 1 pound. You didn't say how much you weigh, but figure a 150 lb person would burn 200 calories in 30 minutes of swimming and it takes almost 3 weeks to lose 1 pound.

Keep in mind that this is swimming laps for the full 30 minutes or cheerleading for 30 minutes. Not playing, waiting, talking to friends or doing something easier. If you're doing less work, you're burning less calories.
