i just need to loose a little bit of weight

Since you are young, what I sugguest to you is to do a bit more excerise as youngsters can burn much more fats than full grown adults.
Try pick up a sports as a hobby or doing excerise together with your friends. It's fun. Who knows u might even like it!

Why dont some people on here stop being so brainless telling a child of 14 where and how to diet.
Alexunless you are very fat and or obese then at your age you must not diet.
You are young enough to burn off the fat with exercise.
If you are very worried because you are fat then tell your parents and arrange a visit to see your doctor who will give you all the advice you need.
Please dont listen to the silly people on here who tell you to diet.
They dont realise what harm they are doing to a young person.
Take care.

Stop drinking all soda - drink water instead. Stop eating junkfood - cookies, chips, etc., and eat fruit or vegetables instead. Stop eating fast food, especially fries. Increase your excercise level at least somewhat.
It's not glamorous, but the pounds will melt away.

At your age take the advise from your doctor would be best

im 13 and i have a bmi of 20.2 so im not fat its just i have way to big thighs for the rest of the girls on my volleyball team and i really want a flat stomach. ummm... check out my livejournal for my plan of action http://yelljamieyell.livejournal.com/

at 14 you shouldn't go on a diet, but if you exercised a bit more you could easily loose that little bit of weight you want rid of.
try cycling, good fun and good exercise
