Losing weight is really not that hard, It's all about what you eat, yeah excersise can be good but you dont HAVE to have it, Im 15 and weighed 72kg and went down to 64kg just with eating better food, and I dont even eat vegetables there gross, I just Calorie Count, We burn calorie's just moving, breathing and typing right now. In a day and your at your age I think you'll burn around 2500 calories meaning if you eat exactly 2500 calories per day you wont get any fatter or skinnier, Less calories more weight loss, More Calories Less weight loss. So say if you've had alot of junk food you could have ate 3000 calories you burned 2500 that day meaning you put on 500 calories to your body, Meaning you will get fatter Its the exact opposite with losing weight this way. So if you wanna do it like me I took my calorie intake a day to 2000 calories so ill burn 500 calories so ill lose weight. So eat less calories! thats it! and drink more water. 2L a day but have it over the whole day, Someone has died for chuggin 4L of water. To figure out how many calories you've had go to the box and it will say KJ 230? whatever per serving so say if you had 1 serving of it you've had 230 KJ, (KJ is just another way of saying calories its like pounds to KG's inches to metre's) To get from KJ divide it by 4.184 So 230 KJ equals 54 calories. Say if you had a burger 1200KJ/ 4.184= 286 Calories Meaning you could have 6 burger's today and still lose weight. lol but that's with no drink,, haha water has no calories at all so that is always good. Goodluck Oh and Egg,, drunk,cooked however is always good, Its got low calories and good protein so you will feel full for not that much calories.

Without the gym you're doomed to keep the gut forever kid. You have to WORK to see results.

Cut out all sugars & starches. No sodas, juices, cookies, candy, cakes, etc. As healthy as fruit may be, it's natural sugars do not only not promote fat loss, they actually promote fat storage (fructose is the most lipogenic carb). Make sure half your meals are green non starchy vegs & eat lots of protein & good fats, limit your complex carb portions to no more than your protein portion.
