Question

Okay, I'm about 13 years and 4 months. I'm 5'3" and weight around 115. Sure, eat healthy and exersize. I've tried that...a lot. Any tips or ideas? I only want to loose about 5 pounds tops.

Answer 1

Eat properly, exercise and drink lots of water.

· It is important to maintain a good diet so you don't compromise your health. Damage done because of lack of nutrition is not worth a nice body. Some diet damage cannot be fixed.
·
· When you deprive your brain, the brain will take other body cells to convert to the elements that it needs. And the cells it takes are BRAIN cells. OOPS. I don't want to lose brain cells to have thin legs. But I would like to have both.

Also, a quick weight loss is usually a water loss and that loss will come back ASAP. You cannot loose FAT more than 2 to 3 pounds a week. Any more than that and you are loosing water and muscle mass (not good)

AND DON'T GO ON A DIET. DECIDE TO MAKE A LIFE CHANGE TO A HEALTHY LIFE STYLE.

1) fruits and veggies, all you want, organic, raw, vine-ripe if possible. Steamed is OK, sautéed is OK even canned or frozen is OK, but lots of them.
2) limited or no meat.
3) nothing fried
4) no FAST FOOD- is junk, no nutrition, empty calories
5) NO PROCESSED FOOD. if you can't pronounce it don't eat it.
6) nothing white, salt, sugar, mayo, milk, (or at least in moderation.
7) NO DAIRY-dairy is great for baby cows, your body does not even digest it properly. check out www.notmilk.com
8) EXERCISE- and be sure to refresh your body with water and fresh fruit
9) NO PROTEIN SUPPLEMENTS. Muscle is made from water, replace the water. You get enough protein from the food you eat, You get more protein from spinach than the supplements you take and your body does not get toxic on food protein the way it will with supplements. Supplements can really tax you liver.
10) Good supplement would be Omega 3, and Juice Plus+

11) NO CARBONATED DRINKS, or at least limited. They actually dissolve the calcium in your bones.
12) Calories in calories out.

AND DON'T GO NUTS, MODERATION.

Answer 3

First I want to start by saying that you certainly do not need to lose any weight. I think you are at a perfect weight. But, if you really feel that you want to tone up and slim down, (although you don't need to!!! :) ), you should start running 3-6 times a week. Start off slow. Running only 3-4 times a week. Try to push yourself to see what you are capable of. But don't feel the need to go too hard. You may walk too. Just make sure you get in at least 30-40 minutes each session. As you get better, you can start running more often, for longer distances. Also just of course continue eating healthy, indulging once in a while but trying to avois salty, sugary foods. If you drink a lot of milk, cut back. Try no more than one glass a day. Also try to stay away from drinks other than water. They are jam-packed with calories. Good luck! Be happy, be healthy!

Answer 4

I found the book to be very informative and easy to read.

I've lost 17 pounds in 12 days, I'm just concerned that I'm losing too much weight, too quickly. I will admit I haven't followed the guide exactly. I'm not sticking perfectly to the listed foods and meal plans (but mostly) and doing very little exercise, but the weight keeps flying off.

It clearly works and if I'd followed it exactly I think it would scare the living daylights out of me because of the amount that I'd lose. So thanks again for the information. I've never purchased anything like this before because they are usually full of trash, but 3WD has been a pleasant surprise.

Answer 5

If you exercise a lot, then maybe the extra weight is from the muscle. Why do you want to lose weight? If it's for a specific area (legs, belly, etc.), then look online for exercises that help trim down that area. 115 isn't heavy for your age and height. Base your want to lose weight on your measurements (around bust, waist, etc.) rather than on whether you think you are "fat" or not, because even really skinny people view themselves as fat sometimes.
