Basketball and softball is good, however I do not think softball provides as much movement (unless you're constantly at bat and running-- or you're always chasing the ball) as basketball. It also depends how many times a week you do it, or have practice. So you kind of have your cardio there, if your dad buys you an elliptical, make sure you balance it out with your sports so you don't over exert yourself. If you find yourself using the elliptical a lot (and if practices for basketball are always similar), make sure you change it up once in awhile, or else you will plateau.
Diet. Cut out high fat foods / junk foods, if you have them on a daily basis, or too many times in the week. Drink lots of water, or green tea (iunno, I heard it helps speed up your metabolism, but so does water). If you feel tempted to drink soda, drink fruit juice. Usually people will say to eat 5 small meals a day, instead of 3 to keep yourself from being hungry.
Set small goals for yourself instead of looking at the big picture, because weight loss takes a long time, and you might just feel unmotivated if you don't see any weight loss in a short amount of time. You can reward yourself if you meet those goals, whether it be chocolate (it's fine to cheat out once in awhile, but don't make it a habit), new clothes, or something you've been wanting for awhile. You also have your sports teams to keep you motivated. ]
Your goal is definetly possible. I have to lse weight too. My dad lost over 100 pounds in a year by doing this one thing: not eating after 8pm. BUT the reason it took hims so long is because he didn't exercise. So my advice is to not eat ANY food after 8pm and to make yourself an exercise plan that wotks for you. But most important, you have to have the right mind set. Tell yourselfyou KNOW you can do it. Also, be patient. It may take you some time to see results but if you work hard you will! I hope this helps. :^) ]
