how can a 12 year old lose 30 pounds n a month

I do soccer, basketball, swiming, and a little softball. I walk with my friends 2 the park stores anywhere close I eat less then my 85lb friend eats and you know what I'm not loosing ANY weight and people dont say you need to diet and crap cause if you diet before you finish growing you wont be as tall as you usually would have been. im 5'4" and going into 7th grade im 142.2lb i sucks but you know i have great friends and I beleave That I'm just a late bloomer I'll do work out tapes and I always will but I;m not going to cry over what ppl think there just plan jerks if they tease you and you shuld just act like they arent saying anything because its like your reaction to what they do is fueling them up just to hit you down again. When ever my brother makes fun of me (hes great really well know he is sence i dont care what thinks he stoped) I ignore im and he hasnt eased me for a whole 4 months its great lol keep me posted and tell me if you have any ideas!!!!!

Hi there, first of all--stop worrying about your weight. Just look at how you look. Be happy with how your body looks, and don't worry about what the actual weight is, because that can drive you crazy. The best thing that you can do is track your calories. Find out how much you eat per day, and that way you can figure out how much you need to take in to lose weight. Does that make sense?

IM SO SAD BECAUSE OF MY WEIGHT I REALLY NEED TO LOSE WEGHT BECAUSE EVERY BODY MAKES FUN OF ME I REALY NEED TO LOSE WEIGHT AND FAST

I have the same problem i weigh 108.2 lbs at 12! People tell me im skinny and truthfully im not, i may look regular sized and all but i feel obese and would love to weigh 85 what can I do

I Had the Same Problem but I weighed 140lbs and when I got older like now in my 19's My Body Stretched and im quite happy now. More boys are starting to talk to me...Haha Which is good . But Hun Dont be worried what people think. I did this for nearly most of my teen years and it got me no where my confidence was discracefull.. I know what you mean about Joining clubs your worried what people will think they will laugh at you or look at you weird and youl be the one left out and sad. And you know your confidence isnt great because your afraid that if you get laughed at your confidence will decrease. Its Hard Loosing weight. The Best thing to do is to lay of the fatty foods. Start drinking water and walk more. You dont have to over do your self with the gym..sure it helps but walking down to your local store is as good. I understand what your going through its tough but your still a kid your body is stil growing give it time babes...And then youl be laughing in the End as long as you stick to the right things... Good Luck.

P.S Anyone that teases you is not confident in themselfs it dosnt seem like that at the time but you will understand when your older

HI,

. Stop eating junk food such as cold drinks, burgers, sandwich, samosas, etc

. Reduce eating fats and fried foods such as refined oils, sugar, ice cream

OK trust me on this im a personal trainer is really easy about 3 to 5 time a week go for about a hour long run or power walk wake up before school at like 5:30 so its early do want to lose weight or not and eat healthy foods not mcdonalds or that stuff maybe you can go to fast food resturant once a monthif you can if your on a long car ride i understand so eat healthy foods and 3 times a week do power walks or runs simple right! so just do that and your young you can lose weight really fast so dont worry and if you cant get girl grow long hair they dig that

"How can a X-year old loose 30 pounds in one month"?

Sorry - It is not possible.

Did you gain 30 pounds in one month? You didn't, right? Therefore hon, you can't lose it..



Losing weight is a process (the same as gaining it) - it is "healthy" to lose approximately 1-2 pound per WEEK.

And this is possible only by PROPER NUTRITION:

rich in proteins, veggies and fruits,
(to the poster above - eating one ice cream instead two)
eating breakfast
eating 4-5 small meals (do not eat 2 big meals instead - it is a fatal error for losing weight) - a small meal is a sandwich (put in plenty lettuce; and for god's sake no mayonnaise); a small meal is an ice cream (indulge yourself from time to time - but not every day); a small meal is an apple; a small meal is an energy bar - do you get where I am going?
drinking water (1,5 liters a day) and not drinking juices and sodas and beers (alcohol is a weight gainer too)

AND

EXERCISING - for losing weight - perform cardio workout!!!!!
Start with small steps - if you are not used to exercising - start with fast walking - at least 45 minutes a day. Eventually you will start with slow jogging.

First week 3 days a week, second 4 days a week, third 5 days a week - on sixth week you can either continue with 5 days a week or you can add one more day, but remember - it is very important to rest at least 1 day a week.

Stay hydrated during training, and remember to eat a small meal approx. 1-2 hours before training (better 2 than 1 hour) and at least 1 hour after training.

Guys - there is no magic pill - most of you know what should be done - so get movin'.

Head up - perhaps they can call you "fat" today, but if you do the work, in a matter of month or two, you will look gooood
