I'm 15 and i want to try and lose weight. I only want to lose 20-30 pounds because ive been told that is within my healthy weight range. I'm 4'11 and about 145 pounds. I want to start yoga but i'm worried that the meal plan will be hard with a house full of unhealthy people.


Answer
Importance of Weight Management

During the teenage years your daughter is developing habits she will maintain for life. This includes her relationship with food. Helping your daughter make healthy decisions now will help her to make healthy decisions as an adult. Teens who are overweight are more likely to become obese adults and more likely to have health problems like heart disease, heart attack and diabetes as adults. The gradual weight management process will help your teen solidify a healthy relationship with food and continue this into adulthood.

Diet

A 15-year-old girl is still growing and needs her body needs the vitamins and nutrients that come from eating a well-balanced diet. Your teen should be eating from the grain, fruit, vegetable, protein, dairy and fat group each day. Your 15-year-old should consume anywhere from 1,800-2,400 calories per day. If your child is extremely active she'll need to consume near the top range of 2,400 calories, but if she isn't very active 1,800 calories may be a better fit. Start somewhere in the middle and track progress as she goes if you are unsure. To help your teen change her diet, begin by making small changes. For example, help her pick fruits and vegetables for healthy snacks instead of getting food from the vending machine. Make sure your teen eats breakfast every morning. Try out different recipes like an egg sandwich on whole wheat or yogurt and fruit.
Exercise

Help your teen examine her exercise habits. If she's involved in sports, she may already meet her exercise requirements. If not, it may just take some schedule adjusting to make it a priority. Your teen should aim to get about 60 minutes of physical activity each day. However, this doesn't have to be continuous exercise. For example, if your teen walks 15 minutes to school she will already have 30 minutes of physical activity each day. Teens need both aerobic and strength training as part of their exercise routine. Make exercise a family activity: Go for bike rides, hiking, jogging, play tennis or another sport. You don't want to force your teen into exercise, but rather you want to show her it can be an enjoyable part of her day.

Answer
I would like to give you just a simple workout plan but it is not that easy to lose weight. It is going to take 3 important things. You need to look at the fundamentals and then build your plan on this foundation.

1. Exercise

2. Diet

3. Attitude / Motivation

I used to do fitness training when I was in college and I know exactly what it takes to lose those pounds.

1. Exercise. You must workout not less that 5 times per week. The best type exercise for losing weight is aerobic exercise. That means you have to get your heart rate up and breathing rate up. You should do a min. of (5) 30 minute aerobic activities per week.
*walking is good but keep up a very fast pace and pump your arms to increase the blood flow and burns more calories! Biking is also good. Treadmill is also good.

2. DIET: You have to watch your calorie intake. Simple formula says: If you eat More calories than you burn you will Gain weight. If you eat Less calories than you burn you will Lose weight.
Eat salads with fat free dressing. Eat lots of fresh foods, carrots, celery. Eat high protein low fat meats like chicken breast out the car. Go to the deli and get lean roast beef and turkey and make sandwiches. Eat rice with no butter and no rich sauces. Stay away from ALL fast food! All the exercising won't help if you don't watch what you fuel your body with.

3. Attitude is glue that binds this weight loss formula together. Losing weight is not easy. It takes discipline and a positive attitude. It is not easy to change your eating and activities habits but you must do it. You have to target your goal and stay on track. A positive attitude will keep you on course!
