You're 13 years old, so please understand that your body is still changing, and you need proper nutrition to make sure you get all of the vitamins and minerals your growing body craves.

It's great that you are thinking about losing weight the healthy way. The best way you can do this is by making better choices when it's time to eat, and to get lots of exercise.

Remember when they taught you about "the food pyramid" in school? There's a reason for that! Having a balanced diet is very important.

Here's a sample menu for you:

Breakfast:
1 cup of cereal
1 cup of milk
1 banana

Mid-morning Snack
Granola Bar
String Cheese

Lunch
Grilled chicken sandwich
Side Salad with low-fat dressing
2 oreo cookies

Afternoon Snack
Popcorn
Carrot sticks with peanut butter

Dinner
1 cup of chili
1 ounce of cheese
Baked Potato
1 cup Broccoli

Dessert
1 cup of frozen strawberries
1/2 cup of low-fat ice cream

It's hard to lose weight when you're a kid, because you're at the mercy of your parents when it comes to what you eat. If your parents buy a lot of fatty, sugary snacks, it's easy to make a bad choice instead of a healthy one.

Next time your mom goes grocery shopping, ask to go with her, and see if she will let you pick out some things that you would like to eat. She will probably be happy that you are thinking about living a healthy life. You might even be able to help her prepare a healthy dinner for your whole family!

Good luck! :)

How about go to the gym 3-4 times a week do not eat after 5 pm, and also drink alot of water cause it would make u fuller, also eat lots of veggies and some fruit.
EDIT
I am only 15 and i have a membership you just need your mom or dad or brother or sister (over the age of 18) to sign u up then ur good to go

well I don't have time to find you a meal plan,hon
but I will tell you this!
load your plate for your meal and then put half back.
eat an apple or an orange inSTEAD of the cookies and chips.
limit (not cut) your WHITE foods.
lo cal ranch and carrots are yummy
eat one piece of candy like a little chewy tootsie roll at night for your surprise snack, never tell yourself you CAN"T have something
you can have a little if anything you want.
remember you will be getting taller and your weight will redistribute its self quite nicely if you stick to this plan!
and take a short walk after every meal :) you will see a skinny you by spring :)

Always eat breakfast, it will kick-start your metabolism in the morning. I think it's good to eat your larger meals at breakfast and lunch, and a smaller meal at dinner. Like you said, don't eat after a certain hour (6 or 7, I guess it depends when you go to sleep).

Cut out soda... don't drink too much juice either, it's usually pretty high in calories. Drink plenty of water.... try for 1 to 2 liters a day. I just buy or fill a big bottle (like the tall Smart Water ones) and carry it with me to class or work or wherever.

If you can't go to the gym, just try to walk more places instead of driving or taking the bus... take the stairs instead of the elevator.

A few more random things I can think of...
- When you order a salad, ask for the dressing on the side, and don't use very much of it
- I try to avoid bagels, and have toast or english muffin instead... bagels are between 300 - 400 cals each
- Protein bars (like the Kashi Go Lean ones) taste really good, almost like a candy bar... and they fill you up for a long time

Good luck :)

jog a bit too ull lose that way too

Be careful jogging lol you don't want to give yourself two black eyes!!

I do know actually how to do this, because I've been in pageants before (kinda a hobby) and I'm always taking care of my weight.

First of all, there is no 'healthy weight' for EVERYONE. Any doctor who tells you that is a moron. Because how can a scale determine if your healthy or not? Seriously. And if you are just looking at the weight the scale shows and not other factors that need to be considered that is not right either. Take in mind that it is like two variables that determine your healthy weight. Height and Weight. The cooperate with each other. I am 5'10 and weight 140. If I were to be 5'0 and weigh 140 that would be a problem. If a person is 6'7 (TALL) and weighs 220 pounds that is healthy! If they weighed 80 like a 8-year-old, that would....well they'd be dead.

Here's what I have to say about the other things. The keys to reaching or staying at a healthy weight are regular exercise and good eating habits. Some people think exercise and good eating require lots of effort or planning. But that's not true. In fact, the best way to work them into our lives is by making small changes that gradually become part of our routine.

We've all succeeded in making changes that are now ingrained in our lifestyles
