Okay people, 12 stones = 168 lbs.

Try eating more fruits and veggies in place of other fatty meals, like junk food, cookies, or high calorie meals. Like most people (I'm guilty sometimes!), you've probably brainwashed yourself into thinking that fast food tastes better than healthy food, but that's not entirely true! Try eating more grapes, clemintines, apples chunks in vanilla yogurt (good for sweet cravings!), blueberries, hummus (it sounds gross but it's really not, especially with Wheat Thins or Food Should Taste Good brand whole grain chips! I personally like garden vegetable or tomato flavored), granola, low-fat yogurt, low-fat string cheese, LITE whole wheat bread, 100 - calorie popcorn / kettle corn bags, steamed broccoli with a buttery garlic sauce etc. I also snack on South Beach Diet oatmeal chocolate chip cookies, they're good AND pretty healthy! And eat SLOWLY. Take one bite at a time, chew completely, then take another bite. If you eat slower, you'll become fuller quicker, and you won't overeat.

Incorporate more exercise into your daily life. Take the dog for a 20 minute walk, do jumping jacks while watching TV, do laps around the block, or the house for that matter. Don't let yourself sit down for too long. If you can, get a gym membership. I use an elliptical for 30 minutes 5-6 times a week and it works great for me.

And don't eat out of boredom! It's a nasty habit to break, TRUST ME. Whenever you feel like eating, watch a movie with no commercial breaks so you don't have time to get up, call a friend, read a book or magazine, or get out of the house, away from the food.

And don't "DIET". Because the moment you go off your "diet", you'll regain the all the weight you lost quickly, believe me. Instead, make "healthy living choices."

I recently lost weight, about 20 lbs, and what really helped for me was planning my meals. I planned when and what I was going to eat, and made sure the calorie count was 1400. It may be different depending on your needs, but never go under 1200! Whatver you do, don't let yourself stray from your plan. Write it all down or type it out and leave it up on your computer so you don't forget, that's what I do.

You'll never get to your "ideal" body by eating crap food and sitting around, no matter how much you want it to happen. It takes dedication to get the body you want! Make it like a game. How much weight can I lose? Prove it to yourself you DO have the willpower to get what you want.

But allow yourself a cheat day every now and then. Life is too short! If you restrict your body of all the "good foods", you will one day EXPLODE and eat everything in sight. Trust me!

One more thing: Once you do become thinner, DON'T think you can eat whatever you want now! You'll regain all the weight back, which is absolutely mortifying, especially after all the hard work to lose it.

Good luck! Hope that helps (:

PS; Modesty is more attractive than vanity.

So many solutions... Dude you are very young. Don't say that "i'm a scholar so i do not get time for whatever". You have at all times. Devour whatever you need to. Simply go outside in evening and play some out of doors video games. Particularly soccer, Badminton, Cricket etc and so on. Play as much as that you would be able to. Play soccer everyday for an hour or two and you'll see the alterations.

The suggestions are going to be stop eating!!! Or eat and snack on the right things. Drink water, eat lean protein, salads and veggies. Stay off the chips, white breads, white pastas, and white potatos. Move. Go for vigorous walks. There is a lot of healthy style info on the internet. If you stop eating the high sugar carbs then you will stop craving food all the time.

Really! what does stones mean in lbs? someone else said something about their weight being in stones????? is this some kind of new thing?

1 stone= 14 lbs...you learn something new everyday!
You aren't fat! but eating because you are bored isn't good! stock your fridge with fruit (that's better that veggies too me) and snack all day!

instead of eating when you're bored look for some sort of activity you enjoy. like crosswords or even going on a short walk.

look at yourself when you eat and ask yourself if that's what you really want.

If you have that much down time get a job or another job or here GO TO THE GYM!
