Loosing weight and such I'm 16, I'm 150, and I think 5 feet tall. Yes I am short.
I want to lose 25, or better yet, 30 pounds by summer. Why? I absolutely love clothes. I love fashion. But sadly, there isn't a lot of clothes that I am fond of that look very flattering on flabby/chubby people. And it's really hard to find 'on sale' clothes that come in medium-extra large. I also want to lose face flab :D.
However, the difficulty lies in doing so.
I have a threadmill, however, I think it's really boring, even with music. I'd much rather do cardio on an elliptical and do weights at the gym, but the problem in that lies in the fact of persuading my parents! (any advice on doing so would be help alot)
I don't really have a problem with eating, but when I'm stressed I like to eat 'Cadbury Milk Chocolate with Hazelnet/Fruits' which is calorie packed. Chocolate is also really compact so it fits in my bag and I can take pieces of it without the teacher seeing (ahaha) seeing as we're not allowed to eat in class. If anyone has a substitute food that I can eat/take to school, it would help a lot.
Thanks people who reply :P

I'm 4' 11"! You really need to get moving. Exercise is something you're going to have to get used to if you plan to lose weight. Maybe instead of long distance running you can try running really fast for short distances and then taking breathers. Its a lot more exciting than long distance running.
For the snacking issue...chocolate isn't going to get you anywhere missy :] You need to whip yourself into shape! Try chocolate flavored Quakers rice cakes. Theyre SOOOO yummy and youll be surprised at how filling they are. I always bring those to school and break pieces off of them in class. Theyre so perfect! Remember: To loose weight you're going to have to BURN more calories than you EAT. Keep that in mind. ]
hey, im 16 and 5 ft too, its nice to know other ppl as short as me, lol
anways, recently ive read that doing the same activities day to day will not actually help you loose weight.
you hv to try doin different things to target different parts of your body.
try dancing along with music, its a great way to break a sweat
and also when you are stressed try to chew gum, it helps slow hunger and gives you somehitng to put in your mouth
good luck :) ]
