gained weight?
okay so i'm 17 years old 5'3 in height and weigh 120 pounds. im not fat at all or anything but during the summer i weighed 110. i was pretty skinny and fit mostly because i was really active and constantly busy! but since school started and with it getting cold i'm not as active and i probably eat more and ive gained 10 pounds! most people say they cant even tell, but i can tell that my thighs are bigger. i cant fit in my size 1 jeans anymore! but i would like to lose some of the fat that ive gained, get down to about 112. anyways i just got a membership at the gym and i plan to run 30 minutes everyday. i also just got a new job hostessing which i plan to be working a lot so im sure ill be a lot more active than ive been! i probably wont cut junk out completely, but im going to try to only have it maybe every other day (dont tell me its unhealthy im not stupid, but hey im a kid!) if i keep this up how long do you think it will take to lose 7 pounds?!

One pound equals 3500 calories. That means you have added 3500 calories to your diet or haven't burned 3500 calories, for every pound you've gained.
So...you've added 35,000 calories which have not been burned off. You would need to reduce your daily caloric intake to lose weight. I'd say if you shave off 300-500 calories a day, you will lose 7lbs. in about a week or two. You can either exercise it off (but don't eat it back on!) or just cut the calories in your daily eating routine.
7lbs.! Wish I had your problems!

It sounds like a healthy plan so I don't see you having any trouble losing weight within about a month or maybe two. Here's a tip, while you don't have to cut out all fun food, if you notice you drink a lot of pop- simply cutting that out of your diet would result in a major weight different.
Good luck!
