actually, you're not overweight, your bmi should be around 23-24, which is average. If u still want to lose weight tho, exercise regularly, follow the Food Guide, and drink lots of water

I am 12 and weigh more than you! OH NO! Like by 10 pounds too... and I go to the GYM! Maybe it's muscle....... I hope so...... Oh, but I'm taller too.....I'm like 5'5 or somthin.... that's a big diff. CONFUSED!

i know that muscle weighs more than fat, but it takes a lot of regular weight lifting to gain 1 lb of muscle in a month. So if you're excercising and not losing weight, u can't blame it on gaining muscle mass. you should go running and biking and do a more intense excercise routine then swimming. also, cut back on sugar and eat more fruits, vegetables, salads, nuts, and fish. Stay away from those carbs too, like pasta and white bread. also, try to eat like 4-6 small meals throughout the day rather than two big meals. Give up the sodas and fruit juice, and just stick to water- and drink lots of it! i'm tryin to lose 15 lbs myself so i've read a lot about this stuff well good luck!

EAT MORE!!!

by only eating twice a day, you are dropping your metabolism very low and causing your body to want to hold on to it's fat stores. if you ate 6 smaller meals per day spaced 3 hours apart your metabolism would stay high and you would burn more fat.

[islandkiss]

just eat healthy and excercise like crazy.

[miss-blasian]

i think you are around the right size...is it like..you're thin but you have stomach? because i would say i am like...regular but i have a poochy belly...i'm 5'3 and i am 120 lbs.

i would say just eat all colors of food..(ex. red= apples, tomatoes, etc.)
and just work out...yeah...

i just try to be content with what i have.

if u honestly wanna lose wait, u have 2 have at least 3 meals a day and have a healthy snack inbetween breakfast-lunch and lunch-dinner. i should eat til ur full not stuff.

u should atleast do half an hour of cardio every other day, at most 6 times a week, ur body needs rest.

also its the intake. u have 2 try and cut out all the fats and unhealth junk thats just empty calories. u wanna try and not consume more calories then u burn. also never cut out carbs, because carbs r ur source of energy. its good 2 cut bak alil bit, but never leave it out. carbs include, like breads, pastas rice, all that stuff.

[bigpoppaproppy]

^^

it's not healthy to cut out all fats either

your body needs a certain portion of calories from fats...as long as theyre not saturated they are fine

[soulovely]

i was doing a school experiment and did the atkins diet for a week. i lost 10lbs. but with my other friend she lost 3lbs. i think i have a pretty fast metabolism... but you should try it though.

i'd do the regular don't over eat, eat healthy, excersice.

i agree with bigpoppaproppy too i read that somewhere. but i eat like once a day (which isn't good. but i'm either too lazy to cook for myself, or am too busy i forget to eat) and i lose too much weight. which is also bad) but people's bodies are different... that's why you should try many different things to see which is best for you.

[HuGs_fOr_yOu]

Eat when you are hungree, stop wen you are not hungree. Don't keep eating and eating till yer like stuffed. It also helps wen you have like 3 healthy meals a day, and a couple snakes [ Rather than 2 big meals. ]

workout for 3 hours a day , 5 days a week and during the work outs you only get 2 water brakes . make that 3 if your really tired . and stay away from any kinds of pasta . after that you should lose the weight you want in about 2 or 3 weeks depending how hard you word and how well you maintain yourself . and if you do the working out part right you should lose about 2-4 pounds a day ! !
you may be thinking thats crazy and insane but i did for about 2 and a half months . we did this for wrestling season . . well you can try other ways but i know for sure that this workout right here will make you lose weight .

you also burned a majority of water weight and ALOT of muscle

the body cannot(if you're not chemically aided) lose more than 2-3lbs of pure fat per week....

3 hours a day for most people is overtraining

also the water break thing is only going to cause dehydration, and possibly a muscle injury over such a long period

theres a BIG dif between losing weight and losing fat....

she's not just weight lifting. swimming is better excercise than regular weight lifting. why do you think swimmers have better bodies than some people and all they do is swim??? hehehehe

[SHW33T_PiNKNESS]

try not to sit down too much. after eatin`, walk around for 10 or 15 minutes until the food gets digested...nd always remember...muscles weigh more than fat...but in mah opinion u r not fat...u should try to compare ur self to fatter ppo nd it'll prolly make u feel better =]

i know she's not weight lifting, that's why i'm saying it takes a lot of regular weight lifting to gain muscle and she's not doing that, that's why she can't blame "gaining muscle" for her staying at the same weight.

swimming is a great workout but you burn more calories doing something more vigorous such as running or biking.

[makulit]

try other sports besides swimming & work out as much as you can, but don't over exert yourself to the point that you can't handle it. also when it comes to eating don't limit yourself to only 2 meals a day thinking it's gonna help you lose weight. try having more meals, not complete meals, just little helpings because this will cause your metabolism to work faster than it has been working because of eating. keep in mind to watch what you eat, not saying you can't eat your fave meals, but be aware that maybe sometimes you've eaten too much. losing weight takes discipline, but no need to starve & tire yourself from doing all these stuff & not seeing any results.

It doesn't seem like your fat .. From your height and weight ..
