Help ASAP.
12/F
Hello! My Name Is Amira And I'm 12 Years Old.
So I've ALWAYS Counted Calories. And I'm Just So Fat That I've Been Excersizing Lately. But, I Don't Know How Many Calories I Burn When I Excersize!
I Would Really Like To Know How Many Calories I Lose During These Routines (Not All Together, But Seperately):
-Jumping For 10 Minutes Straight
-Running A Mile In 15 Minutes
-100 Situps
-100 Pushups
I Really Need To Know These! Thanks!!
-Amira

Hi Amira,
I can not tell you how many calories you are burning with your exercise routine, I'm not qualified to do so. What I can tell you is that based on your routine you may be exchanging fat weight for muscle weight.
Muscle weight weighs more than fat and can make you look heavy which is actually good as it is a healthy type of heavy. What I can't tell from your writing to us is if you are over weight and just what your BMI is. There are two people that can do that for you. The first of course is your family doctor or pediatrician. The other is your PE teacher at school.
At 12 years old you should not be this concerned about your weight as you have not yet entered your teens and are probably in the early stages of puberty if you have even entered puberty at all. Some of what you are calling fat is what we parents call your baby fat which will redistribute itself as you adult hormones kick in turning your body from that of a girl child into that of a young lady and eventually a young women.
Your hips will form, your breast will grow, your legs, thighs and butt will define themselves. The belly fat you may now be seeing will in large part slim down as you and your body grows and defines itself.
My advice is that before you end up with a hard body, unless that is what you want. You either ask your PE teacher for help with an exercise routine to help you shape and tone your body and ask just what your total BMI and weight should be. The second option is to ask mom to arrange to visit the doctor and ask your doctor what your weight and BMI should be as well as have a complete physical should you need to diet as well as exercise.
No one should start any exercise program or diet without first visiting their doctor and getting their doctors okay and guidance while doing so. Even someone your age.
