How do I lose weight over the summer?
I’m 14, 5″3, and 148 lbs. I’ve been one of those people that has always been fat in their life and I really want to try to lose weight this summer, before school starts.
I’m looking for specific diets and exercises to lose weight around the stomach and thigh area, but I don’t want anything completely unhealthy because I want to be tall.

A healthy diet and exercise. Smaller portions (use a smaller plate it helps a lot, the bigger the plate, the more you pout on it)
Do some cardio workouts, dancing in your bedroom, skipping, running up and down stairs.
You are only 14 though so do not worry, you do store a little more fat in your teens and it is normal.
Make sure you eat enough for your body’s daily intake, if you don’t your body will actually retain weight. Regular meals that are healthy, low in saturated fats.
If you do this properly you should speak to someone who can advise you the right way to lose weight.
Go on youtube for exercise demo’s, tone your muscles up as this raises your metabolic rate and helps burn calories.
Good luck and be healthy 🙂

If you’re trying to lose fat, you can’t just do exercises to tone specific body parts. Exercises for your stomach and thighs tone the muscles, but first you have to get rid of the fat that is covering the muscles. The only way to burn fat is to do cardio… Swimming is great exercise for your whole body and good for the summer. You can ride your bike, run, walk, roller blade, whatever you enjoy so that you keep it up. My sister was 5’7″ and 200 lbs… she tried the South Beach Diet and lost almost 40 lbs but then she gave up on the diet and gained it all back. Whatever you decide to do you need to make healthy choices that you can stick with for life if you wanna keep the weight off. Also, it’s better to eat the most food early in the day so that you burn off the calories. Eat breakfast, a big lunch, and a small dinner (in Europe they eat lunches like we have dinner and dinner like we have lunch… they’re all skinnier than us. lol) and don’t have desert.

. First start by getting up earlier than usual. Around 5:30 AM to do some of you workouts. Getting up early shocks your metabolism because the body needs more energy to get going. Right? This will start your system on the road to weight loss. That early start with about 10 minutes of stretching. Have a cup of coffee to get the blood going also.
2. Do all the sit-ups you can. Just do them. 15 or 20 whatever, we don’t have a lot of time to work with. Rest 1 minute repeat, do this for 6 sets. Already you are breathing hard and feel worn, because the body is working extra hard at being up earlier and then going right into exercise. If the early morning hour lets you get your cardio in, go ahead and do it. 30 minutes.
3. Diet. Cut all current meal portions in half, just cut them in half, nothing fancy or complicated, CUT IN HALF! Cut out all bread products, all gravies, candies, chips, night snacks, etc. If you crave at night eat a banana, other fruit or best a non-fat yogurt. There are some tasty ones out there.
4. In the evening do another 6 sets of sit-ups maxing out each set. Cardio again. The trick is to stay with getting up earlier. Yes it’s hard, that’s why it is so effective. Why do you think the Army gets up so early, it is intense training to the max.
