I'm 16, female, and weigh 149 lbs. I'm only 5'4, but I'm in sports all year round. So I'm built. People told me that I look like I lost weight, but I want to lose the fat that I have. I have a lot of muscle, but I know I could lose weight. Its mainly in my stomach, I have that little stomach that most girls have. How can I lose that? I run track, play basketball and cheer. In track I don't run a lot, about only 2-3 laps each practice, should I try running a mile everyday? I'm thinking about drinking only water, and OJ, no pop, and still eat my regular foods, but take out the sweets and un needed foods, like bored eating. Will this help? Any help is welcomed!!

Running wont help that and neither will diet. What you need to do is tone your abs. Try doing crunches. Lots of them. On a regular bases and as the muscles tone up that pouch will be pulled in and quite possibly dissappear. Take Care and Good Luck. [ my2cents's advice column | Ask my2cents A Question ]
