You would benefit from exercising. Since you are only 13 years old, using your own body weight would be sufficient. Weight training at your age is not advisable. Do a total body workout like push ups, squats, walking squats, sit ups, side bends, and so on to tone your skin. How much on weighs has little significance on body tone and body fat. Start exercising a little each day and you'll soon see "bathing suit" results.

You have the problem of being skinny-fat. Your body is puny and skinny as a nerd and yet you are flabby. So the problem is, how to firm up with out becoming even more of a skinny nerd.
Cut way down on your carbohydrates. High protein, high fat, and low carbohydrates: that is the diet you want in order to improve your body composition.
You don't want to decrease your weight, you rather want to decrease your body fat.
Actually, your weight will probably come down some more, but this is the very best you will be able to do. Low-carb diet is your only answer unless you want to take steroids.

At your age you have not matured. Your body will be shifting soon. You can do all you want and make no change because you hormones are not working with you right now. But you will see a great many things shifting in the next 3 years. Take some pictures and watch.
Right now, exercise to keep your body toned and eat a proper healthy diet so when the shift comes your body cells are healthy.
· 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,(your brain craves sugar) 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.
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.

Also eat healthy. Such as cerals, veggies, fruit, lots of water, meats, salads etc.
Good Luck :)

strength training. You need to do push ups and crunches, lunges and get a pair of dumbbells for your arms. To make it easy go get a exercise dvd for strength training if you aren't familiar with the exercises. I'm glad you aren't worried about your weight though cause thats a good weight. Good luck if you strength train that will really help you get some lean muscle.

You are SUPPOSED to have extra body fat! It keeps you healthy, both by insulating and cushioning your organs. Not having the fat will NOT make you perfect, it will stunt your growth spurt that's coming because your body will not have the energy it needs! Don't mess with it, you're perfect just the way you are.

Reduce your daily calorie intake and you will commence losing the fat but it's gonna take time. At your age is a good time to get to work on this and it will never be easier. Don't wait do it now !

Get off the computer and do some exercise. Go run for 15 minutes a day and tell me how you feel after a month.

you are the perfect weight for your height. Toning may be the answer for you. Just remember, you need to do excercizes that burn fat, not sugar!! which means you need to get moving enough to elevate your heart but not be out of breath, when you are out of breath then you start burning sugar and you won't tone as fast!! Good Luck!!!
