There's my forum. It has lots of tips and how to's for losing weight!
Good luck!
P.S. Do not be too vigorous on the first few weeks. You'll end up hurting yourself so take it slow and don't feel overwhelmed by thinking you have to do everything I mentioned in my forum =)

This is the easiest way to determine ideal weight for your height.
For every 5 feet, you should weigh 100.
For every inch after 5 feet, you should add 5 lbs.
So at 5'5, you should around 125. That would be IDEAL weight, which basically means that you aren't overweight at all.

Cardio helps a lot of people and so does weight lifting. So if you weight lift at least 2-3 times a week and do cardio for 20-30 mins on the days that you ar not doing weight lifting that should help. do not do weight lifting two days in a row you haave to give time for your muscels to relax. Also eat a well balanced diet and lots of wate i drink three bottles a day usually it helps.

In order to be not overweight you should be at 150. Losing 50 pounds is going to take hard work. for exercises you should try to go to the gym as often as possible if you can't run in your neighborhood. The best way to lose weight is aerobic activity, or cardio, because that burns calories. This could be running, using a bike machine, a stairclimber, or an elyptical. You are probably like me, and a little self concious to go into a gym and work out amongst big strong men and skinny girls, but don't be because if people see you working out they are going to admire you for your effort, and realize that you care about your body.
You also need to cut down the calories. replace all soda with water, and try to cut out all fried, fatty, saturated foods.
At the moment, the weight you are at is not healthy. Luckily you are young, but the thing is, if you don't lose the weight now it will be much harder to lose it later in life because your metabolism will have slowed down. This could lead to heart attacks, diabetes and a premature death, so please try to be healthy now!

then check out the free advice on calorie intake and exercise. About.com is another website that has great information about calorie intake and
exercise. It is good that you are starting young to take better care of yourself. It gets much harder when you are older.
Good luck to you dear
