I think you shouldnt concentrate on losing weight so much. You are 16 so your metabolism is pretty high naturally. I think you should concentrate on just being active and not eating healthier foods.
Lets be real, teens don’t like to eat healthy. I know, I have 2 teen children. If you don’t remove or minimize the essential elements of a teen diet, soda, sweet or salty snacks, fast food, and sweets then your chance at losing weight goes down.

Teens do have an advantage, their metabolism is much faster, so they can burn off what they eat faster. Unfortunately what they eat can slow it down because there are some things that the body just cant rid itself of fast enough.

You are a teenager so it’s easier for you to be active. Don’t spend your time in front of the TV all the time, get out and do something, you know move around. Don’t think some miracle is going to save you from your obesity problem, its not. You are the only one who can make a difference.

How do teens lose weight? The body loses about 2 pounds a week optimally and that’s 2 pounds that stay off. If you are committed then you should reach your goal.
You are now at an age where your metabolism is peaking. Primarily what you need to do is get up and move. You should not be taking any diet pills, solutions or anything thats not prescribed by a doctor because in your teens your body is changing and growing rapidly. What you need to do is:

1. Limit junk foods. I have a 12 year old daughter, and her idea of a balanced meal is chicken nuggets, fries and sprite. Do you see where Im going with this? 4-6 servings of fruit and vegetables a day before you can have junk food.

2. Drink enough water. Probably between 40-50 oz per day for you. Water helps to keep your metabolism optimized, and allows your body to continue growing lean muscle tissue, not fat.

3. Be active. Even if you dont play sports you need to be active everyday. Sitting in front of a computer or TV from the time you gets home till you go to sleep is not good. When you can you need some time of recreation activity.

4. Vitamins are something that could help as well. They are inexpensive and easy to take. They even have liquid vitamins or the gummy vitamins (my daughter loves) for people who hate pills.

5. Sleep is something many young people dont like to do. Their minds are overstimulated by so much going on around them, but sleeping and allowing the body to rest, also helps to build lean muscle tissue. When you sleep the body repairs and rebuilds itself. Plus if you are active you will want to sleep more.

I hope this helps, I have worked with many kids your age and the ones who are more active had fewer health problems as they grew up.

I observed the booklet to be very informative and effortless to learn. I've misplaced 17 kilos in 12 days, I'm simply worried that I'm wasting an excessive amount of weight, too rapidly. I will admit I have not adopted the advisor precisely. I'm no longer sticking flawlessly to the indexed meals and meal plans (however traditionally) and doing little or no undertaking, however the weight continues flying off. It naturally works and if I'd adopted it precisely I consider it might scare the dwelling daylights out of me on account that of the volume that I'd lose. So thank you once more for the knowledge. I've by no means bought something like this earlier than on account that they're as a rule filled with trash, however 3WD has been a satisfactory shock. Get began at present!

Hello, depending on what type of frame you have will determine what your ideal weight should be.
For a small frame (petite size) 114-127 lbs, for medium frame (young miss) 124-138lbs, then for a larger frame (women) 134-151lbs. I have included a link to a weight and height chart; review it at your leisure.

hope this helps
