gaining weight
14/f about 5'2
Ok so earlier in this yr I was about 92-94pounds, then around Dec I was 94-97. Now Im like 100-103. Was it just the winter months (we all gain a few pounds) or what? i really want to get back down into the mid 90s. Im starting to (ok today I started and will continue) eat better and excersise and only eating 'junk' food on the weekends.
I mean you dont notice it but my stomach is "puffy", theres no fat on my pelvic bone but my lower back is "puffier" too. (I guess im gettihng love-handles)
Is speed walking a good thing to do? I heard crunches/situps can make it puff out more. And about how long if you really commit to excersising to 3-4 days a week?

I would guess you aren't seeing yourself as others do. Normal weight for a girl 5'3" is 120. I know you are a little shorter but not by much. If anything you are underweight.
Exercise is very good for everybody and getting toned would help you. Concentrate on doing that instead of losing weight.
MikeCFT is a fitness trainer and I am sure he would give you some tips about lifting some weights or something to help you tone up and build a little muscle. Drop him a note about it. :)

i wouldn't eat less then 500 calories. doctors advise you to eat at LEAST 1200. so yeah, the person below me isn't exactly correct.
but anyways. just eat healthy foods. cut out all junkfoods and soda. diet sodas are okay on occasion but dont' go crazy.
when your excersising, try burning 500 calories of what you eat a day. in a week, you should burn at least 3500 calories of what you eat the entire week. but don't limit your eating. but yeah, burning 3500 calories = loosing 1lbs of fat. remember thats FAT not Lbs.
for excersising activities, running sounds perfect. running, walking, jogging, whatever.
don't get obsessed about loosing weight. your body height and weight sound perfect for your height. and your body is still developing, so your going to gain weight.
well, help i helped and wasn't too confusing. ha

I've been eating 500 or less calories a day and getting 60-90 minutes cardio, plus crunches, push-ups, leg lifts and jumping jacks. It's been working slowly but surely, so far.
