You can't. There is no reason for you to lose weight, especially since you already said you look skinny. All losing weight will do is stunt your growth at this point. Please talk to your doctor. No one your age should attempt to lose weight without medical consultation anyhow.

If you try to lose weight at your height and age from what you describe of yourself you will be losing muscle...remember muscle weighs more than fat do yourself a favor and throw that blinking scale away!!

if you're skinny why do you want to lose weight? you cna't safely lose more weight. you should weight more for your height. use the chart to figure out how much.

your at a good weight for your height. your bmi is 17.7 so your actually considered underweight maybe you should tone up your muscles but don't try to lose anymore
