Slim but curvey...
I'm i'm a 14 year old girl, (15 at the end of september) i'm 5' 9 1/2" tall and i weigh 145 lbs. Now, i know i'm not unhealthy or anything... i mean i'm certainly not obese, but what's the best way to lose weight? i don't want to be anorexic or bulemic or anything (ew) i just want to slim down and tone muscle. I want to be slim, but not disgustingly skinny. I think i eat too much junk food but i love the sugar lol. Are fruits a better subsitute for cookies and ice cream? Also, i want to have defined curves. ( i dunno if losing weight makes it tough to have curves or something but meh) but i've got these, i assume, muscles under just below my hip that gives my pelvic region a kind of square-ish look. Somebody said this was because i do sports and i've just built muscle there and it can't be helped. Is that true? And i want my thighs slimmer, too.
o.o sorry that's so long. Any suggestions? Bottom line: how do i get my body to look the way i want?
-thanks-

alright. this is what you need to do. work out at the gym a couple hours a week. cut down on the sugary foods and start balancing your diet on healthy fruits and vegetables. i am incredibaly skinny because i drink health shakes and smoothies and i do the south beach diet. maybe you should try that too. also cut down on the bread. after you eat bread, it turns directly into sugar and it makes you fat. lay off the bread. you are probably an athletic girl who likes sports. athletic girls are big boned so don't find it surprisingly unbelievable that you don't lose any weight. try it though and see what happens. thankyou for listening

haha wow i think you actually weigh the same as me and are about the same height! thats kinda weird. but of course, i'll help you lose some weight. it'll probably be 5-10 lbs er so, 10 at most. obviously curvy is better =) hmm but start off with this
-sleep 9-10 hrs a day
-eat 3 meals, especially breakfast, a good sized breakfast [studies shown that if you don't eat breakfast you either gain weight, er stay the same weight, because your body goes into starvation mode and you don't burn calories]
-eat 3 snacks inbetween the 3 meals, probably about every 3 hrs [this is tricky, because they need to be healthy snacks. fruit, veggies, crackers, etc.]
-exercise daily about 1-2 hrs per day. there's alot of different exercies you can do. basketball, swimming, and running can help you burn calories and lose weight fast

well since you are already into sports, your healthy and that a GREAT start! eat 3 meals with good portions, maybe do extra situps, crunches, etc. dont try to get too slim. athletic build is ok!! dont eat all the junk food...if your hungry grab a low fat granola bar...they work wonders. as long as you thighs are toned (not like filled with cellulite and stuf) then theres not real reason to get them thinner. just stay posative and dont expect immidiate results. <3

You need to eat 3 meals a day...watch portion size. To make it a little easier, 1/2 cup of most things is a serving.
Exercise everyday. You do sports...excellent exercise. Keep it up throughout the year even when your sport isn't in season.
You will get curves. Your age has a lot to do with that. Hang in there...and lay off the sugary, good stuff (aww, I know!) Try some of the flavored yogurts (3 a day) they can be really good, and, they even have some chocolate ones now! :)
