Lose Some Weight

[Puma!]

I agree with tomo. Alot of people go on diets and dont think about the consequences, I know ive done it. If you count calories it will be really hard to contol what you have, because for every single thing you make all the ingredience will have to be measured and weighed to get it correct.
Instead of counting calories why not take a realistic look at weight loss and the type of foods you are eating. Food thats heavily processed will have more energey then those who dont, try eating more natural foods and less refined food prodcuts.

Suggestions: small bowl of ceral and a piece of toast with juice water etc.
snacks of fruit and low fat crackers with meat for protein
sandwitches and salad or soup for lunch
Small bowl of salad/soup/meat and veg

And energy per gram goes [highest to lowest] like this:
Fat
Sugar
Carbs
Protien

So basically stear away from fat and sugar and focus on low fat meat and fish, wholegrain carbs and fruits&Veg. To loose weight with exercise keep you heat in you fat training zone for your age. Probarbly 130-140 beats a minute aprox[for teenagers]

Counting calories is a way towards anorexia. You'll end up becoming obsessed..

I've been put on a 1200 calorie diet. And in 2 months I've lost over 1 stone nearly at the 2 mark.
I am however on medication to switch the brain off from telling my stomach I'm hungry.
I have a damaged pancreas hence my weight gain. I have to be near to 9 stone by about february.

tbh, thats unrealistic. a lot of dieters forget the exercise. you need to burn the fat off.

i don't think you should try and stop consuming that many calories without speaking with your doctor...
& as people said it so depends on your height.
i mean im not even that tall anymore (5ft 7) & the weight i should be is around 9 - 9 1/2 stone..
im under that but thats besides the point. diets as a child or even a "young adult" are very dangerous without advice from a professional..
