am i doing everything right? ok, well i need to loose weight, and fast. im pretty much average weight for my age, but i seem heavier than everone else. i dont play any winter or spring sports, but i play tennis in the summer. and i have friends who play no sports, eat like pigs, do absolutly no exercises at all, and have perfectt bodies. every day i run for about 30 minutes and do about 200-250 crunches. ive been doing this for two or three weeks, i know im not going to see any results yet, but, am i doing enough to see any differnce? my weight is always on my mind, not that im all fat or anything, its just not good enough for what i want. ive been eating one meal a day with maybe one or two snacks in between, is there any more i can do? should i be seeing a differnce anytime soon?

eating one meal a day lowers your metabolism drastically, so you often end up gaining wieght like I did. I really don't have that much of an appetite anyways, and I thought I vould stand to lose a little wieght so I started skipping breakfast and lunch and just eating dinner (so my mom wouldnt freak out) and I actually gained a few pounds. A regular eating schedual of 3 meals a day, or six small meal/ snacks a day boosts your matabolism! ]
no, you're doing a lot of things wrong. im not going to sugar coat this and im just gonna be honest. you CANT eat only one meal a day with snacks. nope not going to happen. you could easily pass out & get sick from doing that. you have to eat at least 3 meals, even if its just a salad, a yogurt, etc. i would suggest seeing a doctor for diet suggestions or just stick to eating fruits & veggies. the exercising is fine, but i've learned that to lose weight, crunches don't help. it's running and cardiovascular exercises that help you lose weight. crunches are more for toning.
-hope that helped!♥ ]
you should diet to get to the weight you desire then excercise to tone because its harder to lose muscle. ]
