Can someone help me lose weight?!
Question: Can someone help me lose weight!?
I'm 14 years old, and I weigh 165 pounds!. I've lost about 5 pounds!. I'm relatively short!.
Can anybody give me some help on how to lose some more!? My only materials at the time are two ten pound weights!. There is no gym nearby, and if there was I couldn't go anyway!. Also, I'm more interested in losing the weight than getting big muscles!. I don't like how women look with huge muscles, it looks gross to me!. I just want to be skinny, and a little toned!.
My worst areas are my stomach, thighs, and arms!.
Dieting advice and help with a good workout would be appreciated!. I want to lose some weight over the summer, and I'm moving to Texas and going to a new school, and I want a new start, weight-wise!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Two ten pound weights are enough!. You do not need heavy weights to be toned!. To begin with, you mainly need to do cardio workouts - riding bike, running, jumping jacks, jogging, etc!.
For your stomach, do crunches!. I mean a LOT of crunches!. When my boyfriend was trying to loose weight from his heaviest he was doing at least 200 a day!. It's boring, but it works!.
For your thighs, do squats!. Again, a LOT of them!. These will probably hurt you the most!.!.!. they will make it hard to climb stairs and walk for the first few days!. Lunges also help as well as riding bike and climbing stairs!.
For your arms, use the weights!. I'm putting a link to some arm exercises in the source box - just mimic what those guys are doing with your weights!. Because your weights are only 10lbs you will not get big ugly muscles!.
Talk to your doctor!. They will be able to give you the best advice!. Everything that I've suggested I've done as an adult, and you are still growing, so you need to make sure it's healthy for you!. It is good that you want to loose the weight now!. Don't give up! You can do it! :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

First, it's a misconception that a woman can get big muscles easily!. Dont think if U swing a coupla 10 lb wts around once or twice a week, youll look like Arnold!. Women do not have the hormonal makeup to get large muscles easily and even for men it takes a lot of hard work few are willing to put in!. I say this, because weight training is THE best way to burn fat & lose weight, believe me!. And I hear all the time just what Ur saying!. But with only 2, dont worry about it!.
U need to eat right!. If U can, NO junk food-candy, soda, McDonalds-anything processed, that is, with a label U cant understand!. (But if U slip once in a while, dont let it discourage you!.)
Frsh fruit & veggies!. Lean meat-chicken,fish,tuna, cottage cheese, fatfree milk, yogurt!.
DONT SKIP MEALS!. Eat small meals every 2,3 hours!. And drink a LOT of water!. Sip all day!.
At the link U can find Ur calorie needs!. You need to eat less than U need to lose!. And a good trick is to eat way low for a few days & then bump it up by a 1000 cals or so!. This way your body wont get used to a certain calorie level!.
Jog/walk/run/jump rope/ride a bike for cardio!. At least a 1/2 hour a day 5,6 times a week!. Build up to it!.
