Hey,
So, I've been wanting to lose a little weight over the summer. I'm aaaalmost five foot, and I weigh about 98 pounds. I guess I'm not really fat, but for some reason, in my opinion I look kind of 'thicker'?
Like, I actually look like this:

While, I'd rather look like this (size-wise):

I would never want to look anorexicly thin, just thin. I need to be thin for cheering, actually. My bases complain too much weight, when I am 'pulling up'.
But anyway, I am going to have running for cheering three days a week, and I'm planning on doing a certain amount of curlups for every snack I eat. (like, yesterday it was 50 for each peice of chocolate). That should help me stay away from fatty foods, because seriously, at both my mom's and dad's house, all there are are fatty snacks, and they all get mad at me if I reccomend healthier, diet foods. They wont let me diet. So, Will this help at getting me thinner, or will I just look really muscular?


Anyways, straight-forward answers are good.
Thanks for any help, and I'll rate accordingly!

Personally, I would never want to be that skinny, no offense.
If you really want to lose weight, eat healthy foods like lots of veggies and turkey (it's lean).
Limit your calorie intake, set a goal of how many calories you eat each day, like 2000 a day.
NEVER skip meals! Not saying that you do, but skipping meals could lead to you not getting enough energy, and then other cheerleaders would get mad at you anyway because you're too drowsy to do a routine or something.
Also, if you want to lose weight because of peer pressure (not saying that you do), why would you want to please other people anyway? Lose weight so they don't think you look fat? pssh. I think not!
Anyway, what I'm trying to say is that if you're happy with yourself, it doesn't matter what you look like. Apparently you aren't happy with yourself, so just eat healthy, which means no sugary drinks or candy. For snacks, eat something good like goldfish (crackers), they're baked, not fried, and they have 0 grams trans fats! Don't eat fried or greasy food, which means no fast food, under any circumstances. If you really want to lose weight, you will. I actually lost the most weight when I stayed away from the scale!

Hope that helps!
