How can i lose a lot of weight fast?

I am 13 and I weigh about 160 pounds. I know I am way overweight. I have to go on a cruise on April 2 and I would really like to slim down a lot by then. My thighs are big and my stomach is kind of big...and I hate my face structure.
Does anyone know...

anything that can help me lose a lot in a little bit of time?

If I were you I would not use diet pills. They're not healthy especially for someone under 18 years old. Many kids who try these pills end up with serious health risks. I understand where you're coming from because I'm 15 and I just recently lost a lot of weight, but I've gained it all back by eating junk food. I also am going to have to be getting into a bathing suit soon. On March 30 I'm leaving for El Salvador and I want to look like I did a couple of months ago. To help you, you should first cut all your drinks that have calories, and also watch your calorie in take. About 1,400 calories a day will probably get you where you want to be, but make sure your calories are the good kind and not just the fatty kind. Eat breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and 2 snacks a day to keep your metabolism up so you can burn more fat throughout the day. Also, to get my body burning more calories throughout the day, right when you get your self out of bed, do about 50 jumping jacks, and that up side down bicycle thing. You'll feel your heart rate get up and you'll be more awake during the day. DON'T EAT JUNK FOOD! Chips, pretzels, all that is nothing but junk. They're packed with refined carbs and sugars. Foods high in sugar usually turn to fat. Eat mostly 1 ingredient foods. Like, the ingredients for an apple is well... an apple. Watch out for salads, yea they have vegetables, but they also tend to be paired with fatty dressing and fatty cheese. It may not be fun to not eat what you want, but it will be fun when you can jump off that diving board and not worry about what you look like, and just worry about having fun. Get active also, don't watch tv, it's a waste of brain cells. Go roller blading with some friends (This will burn a lot of calories if you do it for a long period of time). Playing soccer, running(also burn a lot of calories), The coolest way to burn calories is jump roping, if you can go about 5 minutes jump roping at a moderate pace you'll burn about as much as you would running for 15 minutes. It's going to be hard, but stick with it.

Welll I suggest that you look on the internet and find out the best and healthiest way to lose it I am your age, weigh 5 pounds more and lost the extra 5 in 2 days time. Here's what you have 2 do.Follow these steps.
1) Drink lots of pure or distilled water.
2) Do anything to make you sweat.Example{ running, jogging, skipping,
painting, cleaning the house, weeding the grass, sweeping the yard

anything you'd rather do to sweat.When you sweat that's the excess
salt in your body which wants to come out. When you have guests
around, your perspiration will smell badly so get in the shower as
quick as possible and use perfume wor dedorant. It has worked for
me and I guarantee that you do this diet and there's no money
needed for this diet. In no time you will loose the amount you
want.Generally my goal was to weigh 120 pounds before school
reopens in September that's like I have to loose 45-50 pounds. Good
luck !!You can call me @ 1758 7180941

Hiya listen say this to your self when your craving food: IT'S ONLY A FEELING! right eat 1 meal a day no carbohydrates! eat something like a soup, a big chicken/tuna salad(super filling). when hungry and feel like giving in do something organise something clean your room look at magazines and look at thin models. tie an elastic band around your wrist and twang it when you hungry! rip up 5 peices of paper and 4 each 1 represents 5minutes of exercise when uve done 5min throw 1 piece away it'll fly by and it motivates you and makes you feel in charge! try crunches gr8 f'your tummy, squats/lunges bicycle, stepper great f'your thights and bum. another bit ov advice RIGHT EVERYTHING DOWN-your strenghts/weaknesses and how you'll improve tomorrow (im doing this and in 2/3weeks I've lost 1st 3lbs pretty good? I think so) Listen ill give you my msn addy and well compare and motivate each other I so hope my advice helps you

frigginhell don't stop eating or throw up
if you do you're just an idiot. all you people saying don't eat just piss me off.
my friend was fat and now she is really skinny and quite bony. im worried about her she does not look healthy.
im 13 too..dno how many pounds I am but I weigh 57 kilos and im 5'3.
I juss keep trying to eat less snacks and stuff like biscuits and chocolate
it never works out in the end because I lose control and pig out. :|
I always regret pigging out
so just remember
don't pig out! :D

1. Eat your basic three meals a day.
2. Don't snack on crap, eat fruit or you WILL regret it later.
3. Try and do more excercise to keep healthy and to replace that fat with muscle.
4. Try doing some stomach excercises every morning and night.

The fat won't be gone right after you excercise for an hour or something. You have to do it regularly and then you will see it disappear. Good luck!

Girlie, I know how you feel. I'm 13, and sooo overweight is just not funny. I lost 20 lbs. in 1 month by walking for 1 1/2 hours a day, drinking 10+ glasses of water a day, crunches (about 50) every other day, lunges, and dancing for 30 minutes. it was easy, but you need diciplin or it wont work, trust me. Eating in is a biggie. eat lots and lots of fruits and veggies. noodles and breads are carby. google 'negitive calorie food list' its a good sized list. one of the healthiest changes you can make for you self is changing from white to wheat bread. it takes about 4 days to get used to, but its worth it. stick to it, and if you have more questions my aim is-- luvstewie27 or you can fun mail me!

starving yourself will just lead you to a death road You can go on a diet which is
eating healthier (GOOD SIZED) portions of food for dinner
have something light for lunch like a salad or a sandwhich
ALWAYS HAVE BREAKFAST as it helps u lose weight I know it sounds sily but it is true
slim down a bit but dont go to the extreme
whats the point?
and why do I know my cousin was force fed and hated everyone for letting her get 'Fat' as she called it so she went on her diet again (secretly) and got so thin she passed away do u want that to happen to you!
if u do u are the most selfish person I've ever met
appreciate your life it is the best u will get...

ok i know your cruise is over but my advice to you is DO NOT listen to skater boy 9 the right way to lose weight is eat more healthy. filletofspam has a good point but i feel that if you say i can eat this , i cant eat that youll fall right back into your old habits again. try and eat food that filleyofspam advised you to choose but than maybe once or twice a week have a twinky or something you enjoy. and find a sport you like. if you really hate sports you could hike or dance! dance is a great exercise! oh ya and dont consider your eating plan a diet! because it lowers your self esteem! good luck!

The red flag that I see is your desire to loose weight is triggered by an external event; a cruise you apparently are being forced to go on.

Good reasons to loose weight are to get healthier, to feel better and have more energy, and to perform better in sports you enjoy.

Bad reasons to loose weight are because you are embarassed by what other people think, or because you feel bad about yourself.

If the only reason you want to loose weight is to try to look good in a bathing suit in a month or two than you will probably not be successfull in the long run.

All that said the best way to loose weight is to eat the healthiest foods and do physical activities you enjoy. Living on lettuce and cottage cheese is not not healthy and few people enjoy spending an hour on a eliptical trainer.

Best I can tell the healthiest diet is low fat pure vegetarian or vegan. No meat, fish, foul, eggs, or dairy. No added oils or fatty foods like avacados or nuts (when you are at a good weight you can have some avacado and nuts). Dr. McDougall wrote a few books on this approach.

The best exercise is some activity you enjoy. It is very hard to continue doing activities you don't enjoy. I love cycling. I'd rather spend 2-3 hours cycling than an hour inside pounding on exercise machines. If you like walking the mall, or trails at a park, swimming laps, or whatever do what you like and make it part of your lifestyle and do it for life.

1. Everytime there's a meal to be eatten, only eat one place/bowl or w/e.
2. Make a fitness plan, try jogging at least 5 minutes each morning. Then doing some crunches and push ups.(remember even if you aren't doing really extreme stuff you can lose weight)
3. Dont eat any snacks, unless it's healthy for you unlike junk. Which means no chips or anything.
4. Do not starve yourself.
5. Drink tons of milk(3 times a day). It's good for you, and makes your bones stronger.

REMEMBER!! DO NOT GAIN A EATTING DISORDER!!

Try eating about 1300 calories everyday and doing lots of sports... Eat negative-calorie food ¬they burn more calories digesting them than they contain themselves¬ and don't eat after 5' O clock. Trust me, it works!

Okay so I have PCOS which makes it extremely difficult to loose weight, but I've managed to loose a decent amount and I've toned everything up. The best diet for anyone is exercise. Eat all organic and natural foods, it's so good for you and you'll feel so good about yourself. Eating this way also eliminates acne and bloat, which I can tell you from first hand experience. Taking natural supplements is much better than taking diet pills. Flax Seeds are also good and natural and are okay to throw into a meal here and there. Skipping meals is the worst thing to do, you're only hurting yourself. Eliminating all sweets and carbs is of course difficult for the first week but eventually your body wont feel the need or craving for it anymore. Once and a while you can treat yourself to a small piece of dark chocolate(preferably 60% cacao or higher). If anyone needs any more advice or just needs support you can get in contact with me and I will be so happy to help! Good luck everyone!

omg! clueless080394! you are 13, way 102 pounds and you think you are fat?!?!?! you have a problem. I am 119 pounds and people say that I am skinny. I need to lose a little bit of weight since I am a dancer but if you are not a dancer or a gymnast then there is no reason to need to look like a toothpick. just exercise when you are bored and don't snack and you will be fine.

Well one way to watch you weight is just to do just watch your weight. Dont eat at the school cafeteria. Make a sandwhich. But dont use white bread, its all calories and has no nutrition. I like Honey 7 Grain, is a little sweet and its better for you. Its still not the best for you but most kids our age dont like to have Wheat bread. And just try jogging around the neighborhood. Little things can go a long way.

all you got to do is keep your mind busy but not on food like if you cant dance then go and practice dancing and I know it works because I lost 23 pounds and if you already know how to dance then if you have a younger sibling play with them until they get tired and it takes along time for them to get tired like make up a new energetic game and make it continous if your getting bored with it make up a new game and trust me it works

wow! All you people who say you're fat at 115 pounds and 130 pounds are ridiculous! Do you realize that people dont really look like they do in magazines! They are airbrushed and are not at healthy weights. The media is brain washing all of our young teens into thinking that models are ideal. You are beautiful just the way you are. If you feel fat work out. Naturally you will release an energy that will keep you wanting more. You will feel better about yourself just by doing that. Dont focus on the scale, focus on how you feel.

to lose weight is very easy you just have to stop drinking soda and sweets I did and I lost 50 pounds, also I'm 13 so I know what you mean. and I disagree about exercising because if you exercise to much you can get malnourished and it's very important to get enofe calories, so your body will grow.

im fat also and only 13. come on I weigh frikkin 102 lbs.(thats like overweight isnt it)but im trying to lose like 10 lbs so that I wont feel as fat as I am.what I do to lose weight is excersise and diet.you do that for the rest of your life and you will never be overweight.

don't stop eating, like some people are saying.
As soon as you start eating again you'll just gain most, if not all of the weight you've lost.

Try having 5 small meals a day or something
