I am fifteen years old and I weigh almost 150 pounds. I have started running on a tredmill, and I am going to try to exercise more, but do you have any good diets that would be good for me. If you know of any diets that I good use to just loose the extra body fat that I don't need, please tell me. I don't need anyone to tell me to do more exericise, because I know that I need to, and I don't need to be told that I need to eat less junk.
All I need is for some websites that I can go to that have good diet ideas for a fifteen year old girl.

Find the "Jorge Cruise Programme" on the web. It's a combination of exercise and a healthy way of eating. You won't be hungry and still lose weight.

Okay, in general, you need to eat unrefined foods. They are higher in fiber and slower to break down in your digestive system. This way you don't get hungry as often, and you poop out a lot of the bulk, therefore not assimilating it into you body.
You also need to eat the right balance of carbs, fat, and protein. If you eat like a typical american, then you should cut down on the animal protein, and protein in general, increase the vegetable protein from nuts and legumes. Also get more vegetable fats in your system. People are under the impression that eating fat makes you fat, but that is not the case. If you get enough 'good' fat, it will actually help you lose wait. Good fat comes from olive, canola and other oils as well as avacados.
Anothering thing you can try is long deep breathing. So when you are sitting there watching T.V. just try to get a pattern of long deep breathing going.
Finally, beyond exercise, just try walking places in the day. Just getting your body up and mobile will help you lose weight. Exercising intensely once a day is great, but it would be better if you were doing more regular less intense work.
I lost 12 pounds in a few weeks by chaning my diet. I only eat scaled fish for meat, egg whites and nonfat milk, and the rest is vegetable. I started eating things like buckwheat, cracked oatmeal, all kinds of fresh vegetables, my snack is a half of an avacado with a little tofu smothered in soy sauce and wasabi, i drink soy milk, I also drink a warm drink with fresly pressed ginger juice lemon juice and honey. My twin brother did the same and lost 15 pounds (we did this for cholesterol reason but the weight dropped off too).

If your calories get to 1200 and you still want
to lose more fat, do this next action step. It’s
actually two action steps in one: Add activity and
increase your meal frequency.
Let’s look at the adding activity first. Adding
activity will decrease your calories in addition to
lowering them from food intake.
You can do this by walking, doing the stationary
bike, maybe a light jog or maybe adding some sports
to your agenda.
Whatever you do remember every 30 minutes of light
to moderate activity burns about 300 calories.
This is a great way to lose weight if you don’t like
to decrease calories and you like to eat. The next
part of this action step is to increase your meal
frequency.
Eating many mini meals throughout the day will
keep your metabolism high and your body burning
fat throughout the day.
(Don’t confuse mini meals with Happy Meals,
these are mini meals.) The best way to do this
is to pre-plan your meals ahead of time.
The minimum you should eat for fat loss is around
3-4 meals a day. If you really want to be a fat
burning machine then increase to 5-6 small meals a
day.
For instance you may eat some oatmeal for breakfast,
then chicken, rice and veggies for lunch. A piece of
fruit a couple of hrs. after that.
Another piece of fruit, a meal replacement shake,
or some yogurt 2 hours later. For dinner some
beef, potatoes and salad. Maybe a tuna, chicken,
or plain salad a few hrs. before bed.
This is the best way to lose the fat pounds.
Especially if you have a slow metabolism and you
enjoy eating like me. I love food, so I eat many
mini meals throughout the day.
I stay satisfied and am less likely to binge
when I see my favorite junk food around. Basically,
the gist of this is if you want to lose fat or
weight you must burn more calories than you consume
daily.
STEP 1: Realize that you can not spot reduce fat.
It burns systematically.
STEP 2: Properly recognize and identify your goal,
then break it down into small parts.
STEP 3: Use common sense and expect fat loss not
just weight loss.
STEP 4: Weight train regularly to avoid exercise
suicide (losing muscle).
STEP 5: Incorporate fat into your diet and never
remove fat totally from your eating plan.
STEP 6: Write down 3 days of food intake to discover
your caloric maintenance level.
STEP 7: Follow the RDA to create the proper eating
plan and food variety.
STEP 8: Never eliminate carbohydrates from your
eating plan!
STEP 9: Calorie reduction is the initial physiological
step to trigger fat loss.
STEP 10: Do calorie burning activities and eat frequent
meals to enhance fat burning.

I don't know any good diet websites, but I would suggest that if you are trying to shed some extra pound, you should eat more vegetables, fruits, nuts, and yogurt. And if you are shopping for food, trying avoiding anything that has a lot of saturated fat, high fruitose corn syrup, and sugar.
