Answers:
Probably not a good idea!. It would help to know your height and weight though!. I'll give you some advice though!. Start a healthy lifestyle, not a diet!.
-Switch to whole grain over white bread and pasta
-skim or 1% milk over whole or 2%
-lean meats over fatty cuts of meat
-don't drink pop
-eat 5-6 smaller meals a day instead 3 large ones
-never skip breakfast
etc!.

If you start a healthier lifestyle, you'll be healthier for life not just for a little while like you would with a diet!. I went on a "diet" when I was 13 (not I just have a healthier lifestyle) and started counting calories!. Don't ever do that! It becomes very obsessive and it's all you can think about!. It will make you miserable, trust me!. Just remember that your still growing, so an extreme diet could mess that up!. Never eat less that 1500 calories a day!. Watch out for high fructose corn syrup, partially hydrogenated oil, etc!. Those are things you do not want to eat!. Always remember to treat yourself occationally, so you don't deprive yourself of your favorite foods!. Everything in moderation!. Good luck! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

No, do NOT diet!.

If you have always been skinny, but ate whatever you liked, then you may not have been healthy!.

So really if you are getting fatter, all you have to do is follow a balanced dite, and you should be back to your skinny (but healthy) self ^_^

Good luck!Www@Answer-Health@Com

no don't diet, just eat healthy food and not junk like potato chips,cakes,pastries,icecream ect!.!. eat fruit,vegatables, and some meat! And you don't wanna be really skinny,just normal, cuz you dont wanna look like a skulliton!.
GOOD LUCK

Hey, I'm 15, i'm 11st 10, looking to go to 11st!. In november 2007 I was 16st 2, I know exacally what you're going through and I know it's hard!. Some places do, do a teen gym, I can go gym twice a week for an hour, crap I know, but everything helps!. If you have a wii, invest in wii fit, it's great, and will help you tone and gain muscle after the weight loss is gone!. I had similar motivation to you, I wanted to lose it for prom ( july 11th ) and college in september, however I will warn you I dieted very harshly, and exercised vigorously and lose 4 stone in 8 months, i'd say in 2/3 months you will struggle to lose 3 stone, as I lost it quite fast!.

With regards to diet ill tell you what I did!. I switched from my 1 DR pepper a day, to coke zero, ( no where sales dr pepper zero lol ) Cut chocolate out simple as, don't eat, chips, bacon, sausages, pastys ( you will be shocked at the fat in a pasty ) sausage rolls, cream all that kinda stuff, I know it's obvious and anoying but it's one of those things!. Switch to red milk, you will adjust and it tastes fine!. However, there are plently of foods you can eat, healthy living bars like alpen, and even kellogs cerial bars, are low fat alternatives to chocolate and contain very few calories, snack a jacks and flavoured rvita are great foods to eat as well!. Jacket potatoes, are incredibly filling, with loads of different fillings, prawns, beans, tuna, cheese, there is, loads!.

Also, as hard as it may be tell people! Tell them your concerned about your weight, your parents and your friends, you'll need the parents to buy the food for you and you need the encouragement from everyone else!.

Finally, with regards to excercise, swimming and running are the best!. I know self confidence can be an issue, but start off gradually, and then improve, you can swim by your self, and no one needs to know, just do your best!

Bullys are bastards, that's life though!. The great feeling though, is you'll find once you've lost that weight they wont be able to insult you for it, and it's one of the best feelings, I know!

I really do hope you do well in your weight loss, and email me at ( maxieboy3000@hotmail!.co!.uk) if you want any help and advice whatsoever, i'm always online, and I can talk and help you when ever!.

HOWEVER - I suggest you calculate your BMI first - if it's 25 or lower, do not even think of dieting or anything just be wary of what your eating - google BMI and do the test!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
