text: please help me!!!!? i have a serious weight issue. i'm only 14 but i can't find away to lose weight. what can i do? can you help me? well... the answer i am going to give you is not what you are wanting to hear! you have do what you didnt want to! control your portions. your stomach is only the size of your fist, so if you eat a cheeseburger, fries, and 24oz. of coke, you have essentially eaten 6 times what your body should naturally be digesting at one time! believe me, you would be surprised how full you really are when you eat like that. also get used to eating 4 times a day instead of two big meals. this will supercharge your metabolism, which is what controls your whole body's energy and calorie distribution.       secondly, you have to exercise, after all the body is a temple and its the only thing you truly have, so why not take care of it? you should do some sort of cardiovascular exercise and active activity for 4 hours spread out over a week. for example one day go for a walk for 30 minutes, the next day do some push ups, etc... anything you can do to stay active and try to keep your heart rate elevated for the time you do exercise. keep your head in it and remember to incorporate it into your life, and it wont seem so mundane!  p.s. i strongly suggest you check with your doctor before taking any of this advice, because that is just what it is. advice!!!! it worked for me when i weighed 240lbs. i now weigh 175! so good luck!
