Niki: Certainly, many people your age have successfully reduced their weight. The first thing is to consult your doctor to rule out endocrinological disorders. For example, a sluggish thyroid can slow down your metabolism and lead to weight gain. Assuming your endocrine glands are working OK, your next step might be to consult with a dietitian, who will analyze your diet and recommend specific changes. Any effective diet will also include exercise. You could work with a weight-loss specialist to tailor a specific plan for decreasing your caloric intake, improving overall nutrition, and exercising more in order to burn off excess fat. Don't waste your time on "miracle diets"-- the very few that work at all generally don't last UNLESS accompanied by fundamental and permanent changes in nutrition and exercise. Good luck.

Hey Niki, I'm fifteen and I know what your going through. Ever since I can remember I've had weight problems! It sucked and made my life suck. So, be logic. Don't go and try pills or "Miracle diets" 'cause most of them don't work- trust me. What you need to do is excersice and have fun doing it. I've lost a lot of weight just by having fun excersicing. This one time my grandma told me to just excersice and I said that I couldn't just do that because it wasn't fun to me. We got into an argument. Finally I just followed my own advice. I went and signed up for volleyball- my favorite sport and I lost weight doing what is fun to me. So do something that is fun for you. Cut down on size prortion and have your friends help you get motivated and have them near for talk and advice. I really hope you find what works best for you. Good luck and have fun!!!

I used to be a really overweight child. So I know how difficult this time must be for you. As long there are no serious medical problems going on with you then losing weight or "getting skinny" will be rather easy. You have to watch the amount of calories you take in you can not have too many. Now that is hard for a kid but you have to limit your choices to healthy things as well. You must make sure that you get regular exercise. If you want to eat a little something extra make sure you walk, run, or ride your bike a little while longer so you can endure your regular physical activity. If you do that you should be okay and please don't trust any diet that produces extreme weightloss. You may not get down to your ideal weight, but if you can no longer lose any more weight then that means that you are at the perfect weight for your body. Good luck and I hope that i was able to help you.

Dear Niki, If I were you I would try several workout videos. and eat things that are high in fiber. You also need to eat plenty of fruits and veggies. Also try some push-ups and crunches. You should walk / jog / run daily! I hope that you will get healthy!!! :) Sincerely, ME :) :) :)

If I was you I would try and exercise more or join some after school activites or go to your basement or in your bedroom and start doing some situps and some exercises. Im 13 and I used to be 123 pounds, and I really wanted to be skinny like the popular girls and i said to my self if i want to be skinny I have to work. so every night i would do 20 situps before bed and 20 before school and it worked I lost 20 pounds in 2 weeks and now im about 100 pounds now and i feel great. Try doing something like i did. It works. Bye from:Justine!

you can start by joining in on more physical activity. and maybe reducing your caloric intake. put it this way; eat more,no exercise=weight gain. eat the same,no caloric intake=same weight. eat less, no exercise= lost of weight. i know its weird but thats what i follow and i got it from this site.
