hey ; i'm 14 & i want to lose some weight; i'm about average weight so i'm not like skinnyish but i'm not overweight - i'm "just right." i want to lose a little weight though; nothing too drastic. i just want to drop some weight around my stomach/leg areas. does anybody have any foods i should avoid/eat or any good excercises i could do that don't take up too much time? my scedules pretty packed with sports & dance which i know helps you to lose weight but it doesn't seem to be doing anything. most gyms around where i live don't permit members under 18; but i'm looking into a spinning class. any help is greatly appreciated! <3 =)
i got these tips from a homeremedy book...
I tryed the tomato remedy and it worked great..I've losed all the weight i wanted.. plus you can eat whatever you want too and still lose weight
1.
Make a mixture of 1/4 teaspoon powdered black pepper, 3 teaspoon lime juice, and 1 teaspoon honey in 1 cup water. Drinking this mixture for 3-4 months may be helpful in weight loss for obese and overweight people.
2.
Every morning drink a glass full of water mixed with lime juice and some honey.
3.
Eating a tomato in the morning before breakfast for 3 to 4 months may be helpful in weight loss for obese and overweight people.
4.
Eating 10-12 fully grown curry leaves every morning for 3 to 4 months may be helpful in weight loss for obese and overweight people.

Maybe you're not losing the weight you want because of what you're eating. You need to cut out all junk foods and high sugar foods, and replace them with healthier choices (fruits, OJ, vegetables etc.). Anything that gets your heart beating helps you lose weight, like the sports and dance you do now. You can add running, or jogging into your schedule if you don't feel that it's enough.
To lose weight in your stomach area, you can do crunches and sit ups. For legs, try squats and lunges because they all work your muscles.

Start with 10 or 20/day and when it gets really easy than start doing more. As for the legs, you could do some thigh smoothers or squats...you could try running/jogging, but that helps you lose weight all over.
Food: Eat lots of fruits and vegetables...drink plenty of water. Avoid any saturated fats...
