I'm 16 and I've lost 6 pounds so far doing this: I eat balanced healthy meals trying to make most of it vegetables and fruits I eat 4-6 small meals a day instead of three large ones which raises my metabolism I drink lots of water - at least 8 cups a day and I try to drink mostly just water, nothing else I DON'T starve myself, that's so bad for you and it lowers your metabolism. I make sure I am eating enough, just not too much. Eat slowly and stop when you feel satisfied, not full and remember to eat often. Even if you don't feel particularly hungry, if you haven't eaten in a few hours, eat something (a piece of fruit is good). I do strength exercises every day to build muscle which raises your metabolism plus toned muscles make your body look really good. I focus on a different muscle group each day. One day I may do upper body, the next abs, the next legs. I actually haven't been doing much cardio but I would recommend at least a little bit. You of course don't want to overdo it but things like going for a nice walk or swimming or just dancing to some music are all great ways to get moving. If you have any questions feel free to email me. I'd be happy to help. Good luck!
youre too young and too small anyways to be dropping any 's perscribe it ofter/weight.
trying to put weight on be eating junk food is not healthy. at least buy ensure drinks which have all the vitamins youe need and is highg in calorie.
but to be on the safe side, go have a physical, this is not normal and could get worse so please see a professional
god bless
You should have some blood drawn and check your sugar level(s).Drastic weight loss is a sign for a person that is close or is Diabetic.
you really need to talk to your parents and have them take u to a doctor, to gain wait candy isnt the way to do it, you need food thats high in fat such as pasta, bread, potatoes, gravy...foods like that will help u gain weight :)
I've gotta agree with everyone else, and urge you to go to the doctor TODAY. Something's not right.
That's too much, see a doctor. Your parents should be noticing that.
Go see your doctor immediately.
