Perhaps you can find some useful tips and advice in a web search for “how to lose weight the healthy way”.
Do your weight loss program and start exercising! Find a friend join a gym. Running is the best! I never though i could do it and i can, it has changed my whole body. I also do other cardio and weight training. Joining a gym is the best think i ever did. I dont like to exercise at home and never stick to it. I find myself wanting to go to the gym and I have come to love it. i feel so good when i am done. And I am getting that toned athletic look. I have it on my upper body so i am working on the lower, which wont be easy I have a pear shape and have big thighs hips and but.
I weighed 220 when i was your age. I am older and have done alot of yo yoing and am not 147, which is a good weight for me.
high protein low carb
CARDIO-so many people are like i wanna loose weight and they lift but cardio burns way more calories than weight training and once you have burned up your calories you start burning fat which is what you want for weight los
Keep your heart rate at 97-120bpm- for maximal fat burn when doing cardio
If you burn more calories than you take in you will loose weight -but remeber your body does burn calories naturaly even when you are just sitting so do burn equal to the number of calories you take in
this will help you calculate caloric intake you will need aprox.
GOOD LUCK

To effectively loose weight and keep healthy at the same time involves a few basic steps.
First of all your diet must be one that is balanced and that you can maintain. A balanced diet is one that will enable you to acquire your goals and at the same time keep you in good health – a diet that will maintain your required pH level. It follows then that the 4 basic nutrients should be involved in its proper balance. These are carbohydrates, fats, protein and water.
Your carbohydrates cover fruits, vegetables and starchy foods. For proper balance 60% of your diet should be of vegetables, of which 50% should be eaten raw. Vegetables include broccoli, parsley, celery, cabbage, lettuce, cucumber, tomatoes, carrots, cauliflower, watercress spinach etc., are high in essential fat soluble vitamins, fibers, and some amount of minerals. You should have a very wide variety of vegetables.
Fruits should be approximately 20% of your diet and are also rich in fiber as well as water soluble vitamins. You should also eat a vary wide variety of fruits.
Approximately 10% of your diet should be of complex starchy carbohydrates such a yam, potatoes, pumpkin, daheen, green banana, cassava etc. These are low in calories and also carry other essential nutrients required for good health. Also these are high in fiber and are essential for energizing the brain cells. You should however avoid simple carbohydrates such as pastries, sweets, pastas and all processed foods. These are usually high in calories and contribute very little or nothing to your health. Polished rice for example has been stripped of all its B vitamins.
Fats including saturated fats, are very important for the formation of hormones including those that are necessary for food metabolism. Fats are required for most essential body function. It therefore means one does not do justice to ones health by stripping all fats from their proteins.
Protein should be 10% of your diet. It should take the form of meats, fish and other sea foods, nuts, seeds, peas beans, grains, eggs, milk and other dairy products etc. Because proteins are harder to digest, it uses up more energy. Vary your proteins.
Water is essential for proper food metabolism as well as for the removal of bulk from your system. It is important to have 8 – 10 glasses of water per day. It also helps to keep you full.
It is important that you vary your meals – meaning you do not eat the same thing at every meal or every day. Also you need to fill your stomach at each meal and so it will be easier to stick to 3 meals per day. Because most of your diet (more than 80%) will be of mainly high fiber foods, (fiber is not broken down by human digestive system, but important for forming bulk for free bowel movement) then it will be unlikely for you to increase in weight and more likely for you to loose weight. Also the variation of your meals enhances the reduction of weight.
