Here are excellent ways for a 13-year-old to lose weight. Ideally, weight loss for a 13-year-old is best achieved through complete family participation if and when possible. Thirteen is the perfect age to create optimum health patterns for the rest of one's life. You may first wish to check with a physician before significantly changing eating or exercise habits.

  • Regular cardio exercise is excellent for weight loss. When done correctly, it is a super fat burner. Cardio can be such things as brisk walking, jogging, running, or cross-country skiing, etc. For safety, exercise with an adults. Further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links, there are two free cardio exercise plans to show you how to do it or to advance you further.
  • Strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates(apart from a weekly treat). Refined processed carbohydrates are a major cause of unwanted weight gain, obesity, type 2 Diabetes, Heart disease, and other diet related diseases. If you are unsure what these foods are, you will find a list, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links.
  • Replace those foods with nutritious 'fat burning' foods and make good use of the thermic effect of these foods to burn body fat. Drinking plenty of fresh water daily will help your body to do this. If you are unsure what fat burning foods are, you will find a list, plus more about the thermic effect of these foods, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links.
  • Get your carbohydrates from natural sources such as fresh vegetables and fruits such as berries. Eat plenty of quality protein such as fish and chicken (unless vegetarian, or course). Your fish and chicken, etc., should not be coated in breadcrumbs or batter. Add to your protein plenty of fresh vegetables and salad, and a little fruit every day. Remember to include beneficial fats and oils; they are essential for life and good health. Seriously limit junk food and sodas (apart from the occasional treat).
  • Do not severely restrict calorie intake. It can slow down your metabolism and make it harder for you to lose weight. This is another reason why it is better to count carbohydrates rather than severely restrict calories.
  • In summary, strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates (apart from the occasional treat). These foods are a major cause of excess body fat and many other diet related diseases. Get carbohydrates from natural sources such as plenty of fresh vegetables and some fruits. Replace refined processed carbohydrates with fat burning foods to make good use of the thermic effect of these foods. In addition, do regular cardio exercise, which is an excellent fat burner. It is important to do cardio exercise at the right intensity. For fat loss,this should be not too low and not too high.

So, for the free lists and plans to show you how to do it all or to advance you or your 13-year-old further:

  1. List of Refined Processed Carbohydrates (to avoid or limit apart from the occasional treat)
  2. List of Fat Burning Foods (to replace the refined processed carbohydrates), and more about the thermic effect of these foods
  3. Free Cardio Walking to Lose Weight, Plan 1 (the easier plan)
  4. Free Cardio Walking to Lose Weight, Plan 2 (the harder plan)

These are excellent ways for a 14-year-old to lose weight. A weight loss approach for a 14-year-old is best implemented through complete family participation (if and when possible).

  • In addition, strictly limit refined processed carbohydrates (apart from the occasional treat). These foods are a major cause of weight gain, obesity, and many other diet related diseases in both children and adults. If you are unsure what these foods are, you will find a free list, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links.
  • Replace those refined processed carbohydrates with 'fat burning' foods and take advantage off the fat burning thermic effect of these nutritious foods. If you are unsure what these foods are, you will find a free list, and more about the thermic effect of foods, further down this page, listed under Sources and Related Links.
  • Get your 'good' carbohydrates from plenty of fresh vegetables, and a little fruit every day. In addition to cardio exercise, play cardio sports if possible. Use beneficial (good) fats and oils. They are essential for health and life. Do not severely restrict calorie intake. It may slow down your metabolism and make it harder for you to lose weight. This is why it is better to count carbohydrates rather than severely restrict calories.
  • If possible, weight loss for a child is best achieved through family participation. For safety, children should exercise or walk with an adult. Seek the approval of your physician before radically changing exercise or dietary habits.
  • In summary, cut down on refined processed carbohydrates (apart from the occasional treat). They are a major cause of excess body fat, weight gain, type 2 diabetes, and many diet related diseases. Replace those foods with fat burning foods and advantage of the thermic effect (see the food lists further down this page). In addition, do cardio exercise; it is an excellent fat burner.

For fat loss, it's important to do cardio at the right intensity. This should be not too low and not too high.

One way that is really helpful is by checking out the book "Toning for Teens" by Joyce Vendral. Not only does it give you exercises that help you lose weight, the exercises also help you tone your body! There is also a diet that is safe for adolescents to go on. I found it really helpful. It's amazing how I felt in just one week.

The best way for someone like yourself to lose wight is to walk 2 or 3 miles every single day and eat healthy foods. Skip sugary and fatty things and go for fruit and vegetables. The hardest thing is to stay committed to walking 3 miles everyday, but if you keep it up you will do it. It worked for me when I was 10. Good luck! P.S stay away from fast food as much as you can, it is your arch nemesis!!

Not gain weight in the first place.

For real though, you can put your son on a deight with low calories, make him run around the yard/ get some exercise and last not have him eat junk food and suger cereals.

If your 8 year old is already overweight though it's good to break that kind of eating habit now because later in life it can become real serious.
