Losing weight the healthy way.

So, Im in a bit of a pickle right now. I want to lose weight, the healthy way. I've tried many diets out there, which werent health for me at all. I'm 16 years old, and Im a bit overweight. I just want to be in shape. I need a good healthy eating plan, &excercising plan. What are some foods to avoid, and what are some foods to eat? Lets say I only have two weeks. I dont want a drastic diet thats going to be impossible. But yet, I want something that'll make it noticeable that I did shed some pounds. Any tips? Your help would be greatly appreciated (=

First of all the most important thing is to narrow down what your eating and how often you eat...

Eating at precise times a day and keeping it a routine is important. Eating randomly is a bad habit we develop which is usually one of the main causes of our weight gains.

I suggest having a normal diet, breakfast, lunch and dinner.

As for work outs, you could always join a gym. But if your on a budget then i suggest you go out every day, run, walk, play sports etc. But keep a routine. You can also do simple work outs at home like sit-ups, push-ups or simple aerobics.

First of all, couple of links to help you out.

The BBC site shows you a graph of healthy eating and weight range. Just check again if you like...

But to lose weight, you need to eat healthily, drinking plenty of water, eating at least 5 portions of fruits and doing a range of exercises, could be jogging for half-an-hour, using some exercise equipment to lower the amount of fat in your body. There are many things you can do to slim yourself.

To start off, do the first, very important thing, start eating healthily. Avoid sugary snacks and fat food, junk, I shall say.

Then slowly start doing some exercises, could be curls, dips and so on. You could also use some exercise equipment, like a treadmill, or even a abs-machine.

You should read up on good carbs and bad carbs.

Pretty much just stay away from breads, pastas, crackers, etc. that aren't made with whole wheat. Things like white bread and pretzels don't keep you full and as a result you'll end up eating more food and more calories.

This may not work for you, but eat throughout the day. I eat every 2-3 hours constantly. Just make sure you're eating good things, fruits, veggies, a cup of whole grain cereal, maybe some whole grain toast.

For sweets and things don't go for the no sugar or low sugar crap. Things like Splenda are absolutely terrible for your body. Terrible! Here me? TERRIBLE! Hahah okay, enough of that. But anyways, for sweet things you should try the Stella D'Oro almond toast things, if they sell them where you are. They're really yummy. :] Also the chocolate covered soy nuts from the south beach diet are good too.

Oh, and drink tea! But not with meals because the caffeine won't allow your body to absorb some minerals like iron.

Healthy weight loss is 1-3 lbs per week. You can do this by achieving a calorie deficit of approximately 500 calories per day. This should be done through exercise and caloric restriction.

One thing to keep in mind is that you should consume no less than 1500 calories per day.

I actually lost weight in 2 weeks but I wasn't motivated the right way because it was from depression hahah. But it worked anyways because I had to do cardio in pe (try running or anything that'll keep your heart racing for about 20 minutes straight) and I had a loss in appetite that only made me want to eat ONE big meal a day for 2 weeks. So i ended up losing 5 noticable pounds. You don't have to eat just once a day because your body actually makes fat when you binge or not eat for hours. Just eat 5 SMALL meals a day instead of 3 big ones(like breakfast, lunch, dinner) along with your diet. That all adds up to diet & excercise.
