Teen needs advice! on weight loss?

I work out 30mins a day on the treadmill and i still can't lose a pound. What should I do? My weight is 200 and my height is 5 foot 3 inches. Help MeTeen needs advice! on weight loss?
the first 20-30min of cardio body burns carbs and only then starts burning fat so you should do 45min 4-6 times a week and combine it with light weight training.


find calorie/fitness calculator on the net, enter all your stats and it will tell you how many calories you need a day to maintain, take off 300-400cal off that number and thats how much you need to lose.


eat 5-6 small meals a day (eat every 2-3 hours)


5-8 servings of fruit and veggies a day


8 glasses of water


have complex carbs for breakfast - they give you energy


have lean meat (protein) for dinner - repairs muscle


dont consume foods that are made of white flour (white bread, cakes, past etc.), sugar loaded foods (cookies, icecream, candy etc) and nothing fried, oily.


ofcourse you can spoil yourself once in a while with a little treat:)Teen needs advice! on weight loss?
Try not to eat anything startchy (Bread, crackers, noodles, rice, etc.) after lunch time. I did that - cut out startchy carbs after lunch and lost a bit of weight and did not go hungry. :=) Best of luck to you!
Just eat foods sparingly. Still eat the things you like but in proportions .
eat foods with less calories and always watch what you eat. and try maybe excersising for an hour instead.
what you eat is more then 70% of what you look like. you need to start a diet, look up some diets, dont just not eat cuase thats even worse for you.
Try dance dance revolution on workout mode.


It's a very fun way to be active. =]
Work out for more than 30 minutes. You won't start burning fat until you're walking for at least 30 minutes. Try substituting water for your usual drinks. Go for 500 - 1000 calorie cutting a day. Thats 1-2 lbs weekly. Results won't come quickly but they'll come.
start early in the morning then dont eat until an hour and 15 minutes later.. speaking mainly cardio/aerobics.. you should work for 40 minutes to an hour..
