Exercise and eat well. Remove junk completely from your fridge and lifestyle. Have friends and family motivate you on your journey because it's not only a physical effort but mentally as well. Listen and follow Simon's tips. Personally I have a food journal to keep on record what I consume and my progress. Good luck on your journey!

I don't see a problem with your BMI as long as your weight has been consistent through out the years. If you really want to work out, I suggest going by your body fat percentage rather than body mass index. Also from my experience, dieting is probably the least helpful way to lose weight. If you're just trying to be healthier, try eating PFC balanced meals(like the others have suggested) rather than limiting yourself to calories. Working out & eating right should be something you enjoy so just try to do what you like otherwise you'll just end up giving up on it. The only tip I can give you is to change up your routine. Walking is fine, but don't try to speed walk everyday just because you want to lose weight. Change it up, and try other light/moderate activities once in awhile too :)!

I've gained 40 pounds since this time last year (wow that sounds gross as hell). Not consistent at all.
Tbh I enjoy walking/jogging a lot, so it's easy for me to exercise. I'm a **** eater so eating healthy is a problem for me, but I'm incorporating more fruits/veggies into my diet and cutting out things like sodas and candy.
Thank you for your advice!!! <3

****, if that's the case then forget losing weight.

130 lbs for 5'3 is NOT bad at all. Health over appearance.

I'm around 125 lbs and almost 6 ft, I'M A ****ING TWIG GODDAMNIT.

Damn I thought 170s was light

This is not true in anyway. If you "aren't eating much" and you gain weight, you're still eating too much. tracking weight loss/gain is as simple as macros in vs. out. If you eat 700 calories a day and you gain weight, your metabolism doesn't suck, your math does. If you want to lose weight you need to consume less calories, there is nothing else to it. It isn't water intake or exercise.


You are throwing in a bunch of information that does have correlation to health and weight loss, but it isn't causation. Yes you should drink lots of water (tbh only water), and exercise but that's true even if you are trying to gain weight.

Yes but isn't sugar intake a crucial factor to weight gain as well? I'm pretty sure if you consume the wrong amount of fats and the wrong amount of sugar you will most likely gain weight, as sugar activates fats or something like that. Some kind of metabolic pathway and osmosis ****.

Yes absolutely. However most people don't consume enough sugar to be able to gain weight at a 1000 cal deficit. If you are dieting you should be cutting a lot of things that are heavy in sugar those; stuff like soda, candy, snack food should pretty much be totally removed from your diet. That may sound awful if you love snacks but I can personally say that you feel so much better and cleaner without that stuff, its worth it.

Still 6"7 and 145 pounds. I used to be very concerned with my weight, not as much anymore though. I eat enough, probably 4 meals a day. Considering im mostly a runner my weight works well for me, still have been told I should gain weight though. Not sure I could gain weight if I tried.

oh, and Mangsi, While I shouldn't(and can't) give out advice about eating do's and Dont's, if you run a lot, make sure to bike or do some knee strengthening exercises. You don't have to, but just pay attention to your knee health! Chances are you'll be fine now, but you wanna treat your knees right either way.

If your doc told you that, I would totally ignore every ****posting reply here. Except mine and Sirs.

I could care less about appearance, my endocrinologist (bone doc) said if I don't start losing weight and exercising more I'm going to get brittle bones.

**** I regret making this thread

no, the thread is ok.

i was gonna chime in and give advice but i dont know enough to try to tell a 13 year old what's good/bad. i also dont know if you're a boy or a girl, which does change things. all i can say is that BMI is bull**** and shouldn't really be used. go by what you see in the mirror imo, unless your doctor has a way of measuring bodyfat %.

Gitaz 03-10-2016 10:29 AM

I'm 6,2 and about 70kg with 10% fat, just work hard :)
