Will someone help me lose some weight?!


Question: Will someone help me lose some weight!?
I know allot of people say its simple, eat less excercise more!. But apparently you need so many calories, and if you dont eat then your metabolism will become slow!? and also im 15, still growing and i dont want my periods to stop!.

Im 5ft8, 15 and weigh 10 stone!. In some clothes UK sizes im a size 10 and 12 is a tiny bit baggy but still fits!.

Also, i think i have a chubby face lmao, and think i look gross :(
I want some confidence back, i remember dieting when i was 12/13 cant remember but it worked, it was a hardcore diet though, I only had two meals a day and would either be a bowl of speacial k, and a sandwich, tuna one, sometimes salad though!.
I would do about 50 situps each night, when it got easier though i could do 100!.

So!.!.!. i just want to be either 9 stone or even 8 :)
any tips!? thanksWww@Answer-Health@Com

You're a very healthy size!. Generally speaking, people who start dieting in their teens often end up yo-yoing all their lives, so please try not to make an issue out of food, but just eat naturally!.

Find other ways to get confident, as that seems to be the problem you have!. Www@Answer-Health@Com

Weight loss is a simple input and output balance, if you eat more calories than your body burns up in a day, you will gain weight!. It really is that simple!. To effectively lose weight, you need a healthy reduced calorie diet, and plenty of vigorous exercise!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

for a workable diet -
here is what my dietician suggests - follow a practical diet!. start your meal with a soup or a huge salad!. this fills u up!. Make sure your plate has this ratio - 50 per cent veg, 25 per cent carb!. potatoes, corn and peas come in carbs category!. 25 per cent protein!.this will prevent cravings too!.an occassional treat is OK!. have a snack every three hours!. fruit ,ideally berries, or soy nuts!. just 2 tbsp of soya subsides hunger pangs!. have a protein shake too, if you want!. it will fight the fat and give you extra energy to exercise!. switch from white rice and bread to brown!. eat 900gms of veggies a day!.Needless to say, NO soda, chips, cookies! Lose a kilo a week!. that is permanent loss!. pick an exercise regime you like!.
get a pedometer and try to take 10,000 steps everyday!.
