13 year old needs to lose weight.

I'm 13 years old, 5'2'', and I weigh a whopping 105 pounds. I used to live in California and last year I weighed like 85. As soon as I moved up here, I've been gaining wieght like crazy, because my new school has so much homework, and I'm so sad I never feel like excersizing and I sit around and eat all day. The fatter I get the less I want to work out, and I was so used to being the tiny one of my group. I really want to weigh 80 pounds, can anyone help me?

I am 13 yr. old too, and you shouldn't weigh that little in the 1st place.. I would luv 2 weigh 105 pounds. I weigh 164 pounds. I am joining a gym soon, so I can be skinny in high school

that is a perfectly normal weight. even check a body mass index website. you do NOT need to lose weight. especially at your age.

I am 13 also and i weigh 189 pounds and i think u have a normal body weight and that u just need to ajust to your new place : )

You should make new friends ang go out more. If they are into sports, much better. Join any sport. Be more physically active and eat healthy. Also, don't forget to control the portions of what you eat. Portion control really helps when losing weight.

I think that in general that this is good advice lyte but I don't think that it's something I would advice to this particular poster, only because the poster is so young. I don't think that losing weight is necessarily a good idea especially when you see how small the person already is! I think that instead it would help to gain some perspective on that because I think that it's pretty easy to get into an eating disorder when you worry about your weight so young. Can you keep us posted on how you're doing?
