Question on losing weight?!


Question: Question on losing weight!?
Hi im 16 years old Im 6'2'' and im 300lbs!. I just got this new job that requires me to exercise!. Basically my job is cleaning and i ride my bike to the place which is a mile and takes me 13 minutes to get there!.Takes me 3 - 3/12 hours to clean the place - which is basically walking (Emptying trash from bin to bin, vaccumming the place, basic cleaning etc) Id say id do 2 miles of walking through out the entire place!. Then i ride my bike home which is another mile!. Im not dieting but i DO watch what i eat!. Im eating alot less junk - drinking more water!. Im used to eating alot of junk at night before bed but i stopped that!. I learned that when im itching for a snack, i can drink water instead and i get full!. Id drink about 3/4 of a gallon everyday!. Question is - Do you think i would lose weight!? Im only 16 and i dont want to diet because its like i cook my own food!. If i lived by myself then thats a different story!. But I was on the scale and i lost 12 lbs already which i know is all water!.!.!.Also im not gonna look at the scale because it can be discouraging!. Instead - hopefully ill go by my clothes!. Feeling whats getting loose!. Do you think id see an improvement on my health!? Thanks!Www@Answer-Health@Com


Answers:
definately!! I commend you for riding your bike there and back, I do that to the gym sometimes and it's a great warm up!.!.!.

as for losing weight I think you could average 2-3 lbs a week!. if you want to build some muscle too grab some 5-10 lb weights to tone your arms!. do basic exercises :)

drinking lots of water is good, but too much can actually be not so good(as studies are starting to show) as you are peeing constantly!.

when I itch for a snack I look to celery, carrots and cucumber as they are healthy and have water in them!. when I want something sweet I eat blueberries, pineapple and watermelon, sometimes when my budget allows I also get honeydew melon!.

anyways, keep up the good work :)Www@Answer-Health@Com

Yes, going from what you did, to what you are doing now will most likely cause you to lose weight!.

I would say you would go down to maybe 270, 250 at the lowest!. Most of the extra weight (the extra 20 pounds or so) would come from diet!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

yeh you ve started off good the exercise will be fantastic for your health and water is reallygood for ya keep up the good work
