Question: Can you guys please help!?
I'm really overweight and I'm only 12 years old!. I'm not trying to be anorexic or anything, but my doctor told me I have to lose a max!. of 60 pounds!. I just don't want everyone to make fun of me at school (because I just switched, and at my old school they did)!. They haven't yet thankfully but they might after a while!. I need some healthy ways to lose weight!. I don't care how long it says it's going to take, but I just need to know because it's really bad for me to be like this!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
Answers:
I applaud your efforts to lose weight in a healthy way! Good for you! Did your doctor talk to you about an exercise plan!? If so, that is a great place to start!. If not, talk to her/him about one that would work best for you!.
You have to exercise!. There is just no getting around it!. It has soooooo many benefits though, so look at it as the best thing you can do for yourself!.
I would suggest starting an exercise program first!. Find a physical activity you enjoy, and do it daily!. (or get a plan from your doctor) After you have been exercising regularly for about two weeks, start adjusting your diet!. I recommend eating as many foods with the least processing as you can each day!. That means lots of fruits and vegetables, and grains!. Try to cut back on high calorie foods (don't worry about fat grams) or foods that have a lot of calories but little to no nutritional benefit, like sodas!.
Lastly, drink enough water, and stay positive! Think of yourself in terms of who you are becoming!. Don't dwell on how you dislike the way you look, instead, be proud of yourself for the person you are becoming!
