Losing weight... please help

[georgie115]

Hi... Im 16 and trying to lose 9lb to a stone quite quickly and I just wondered if anyone had any tips. Iv been eating healthy for just over a week now, Im not dieting just improving my diet loads and i've played football a couple of times and done situps in the evenings but I think i need to do better exercise. The problem is, the only time I can jog is at night and its quite scary out there at night so I wondered if theres any really good exercise that can be done indoors? Also, I wondered if weight loss pills such as Adios were a really bad idea? xxx

I dont think Adios is a bad idea, but I doubt very much if it makes much difference. It is tempting to want to lose weight quickly but it is not a good idea as you will probably put it back on and may get stretch marks. Swimming is great for toning up and also improves your fitness, do you have a pool near you? How about getting an exercise bike or something along those lines? They dont have to cost much. I have a spare stepper but you would have to come and get it lol :)
Ps well done with improving your diet, it sounds like you are doing it sensibly rather than crash dieting. Thats the best way that will work in the long run. Any tips?? lol Im off for a chunky Kit Kat now...

lol thanks. erm i already have stretch marks in 3 places on my body which isnt good as im only 16 thats mainly why i wanna lose weight and definatly keep it off. Ill try cycling because i used to be quite into it. :O, feel free to send it to me, lol (not really). thanks for the advice. I wish i could have a kitkat :(

Don't deprive yourself of what you want. The occasional KitKat is fine. I eat curly wurlys. I put them in the fridge and then it snaps into bits. Some times i eat half of one and some times I push the boat out and eat a whole one!!!!!

I'm losing 2lb a week although I do have it it lose - lol
