According to the standards teenagers are considered to be individuals who are it their age between 13-19. So before going any further make sure according to your BMI (body mass index) whether you're an underweight or overweight young individual. For that you can use this calculator.
And then remember the following things. This period of your life is one of the most important (I'm sure you hear this all the time but...) time of you life (especially concerning both mental and physical health) but sad it seems that according to some of the researches that were done in United Kingdom a while ago showed that teen in their 4-18 of age did suffer some food based nourishment deficiencies.
So before thinking about loosing weight you should first consider how much daily nourishment you already taking because if you're still behind these daily requirements then you should not attempt any diet plans until you consume healthy foods (which helps to burn fat also) first. So make sure you have the following things first which applies to all of you who are at 11-18 years old.
*. If you're a boy the your body needs 2500-2800 of calories daily to keep up with bones and muscle growth, etc. And for girls in this age range will need to consume around 2200 calories daily.
*. Both sexual parties need to consume around 44-60 grams of protein through both fruits and vegetables. Although whey protein is a good fat burner but some of these products come with the age requirements of over 18 years. So when choosing make to ask some help (from a doctor for instance).
And without having to worry about these products you can just eat foods that contains higher amounts of protein such as Beef, Eggs, Soy protein (also a great metabolic enhancer which help to get a lean body), Beans and Nuts are just a few.
*. Calcium is a must for teenagers since this is the time where your body gain momentum concerning bones growth, teeth, etc. So make sure to eat foods that contains 1200 milligrams of Calcium daily.
For this you can eat Milk, Cheese, Cereals (some don't have it - make sure to check the ingredient list), Low fat Yogurt, Navy Beans, Orange, Salmon are just a few that comes into my memory right now.
*. Iron is another very important thing to consume for your body which helps to enhance the oxidation related (in cells, etc) body processes. For boys it is recommended getting at least 12 milligrams and for girls just a bit higher which is around 15 milligrams.
Eat foods such as Beans and Peanuts and almost all sort of green type vegetables such as Spinach, Peas, Potato and Beetroot are again a few to mention.
By eating a healthy daily meals not only helps to grow fast and safe but also can help to prevent heart diseases and other illnesses as well. So I think you have the basic idea now and let's move on and talk about different types of things that you can do to achieve some easy weight loss for teens.
*. Control your early childhood eating patterns or Cure disorders.
If you have developed eating disorders as a child such as Bulimia nervosa for instance (over eating to put it into simple terms) then seek proper help first.
*. Avoid consuming liquid diet weight loss products such as diet soda because these products (Coca cola, soda, etc) can really give negative outcomes rather than helping you because they contain higher amounts of sugar and some other chemicals which can create fluctuations in digesting process, etc. Even though meal replacement shakes are really better than them and more healthier still at your age they are also not recommended.
Remember the reason is really simple actually. At this time period it is really easy to make adjustments rather than when it comes to 30, 40 and beyond since adults needs more help than you do and as with the age the process becomes harder and harder.
*. Eat foods that have low amounts of Calories and fat (sugar, etc) as listed above. But again make sure to consume your required amounts (read this article for more foods to lose weight healthily) and a proper advice from a doctor is a must.
*. Do some exercises
Yep rather than falling into a pattern of watching TV or playing with Computers all day long do some physical exercises such as running, jogging, swimming (excellent), bikes and various other exercises, etc. But if you have asthma or related illness please, again get the professional advices. And if you're thinking about doing some weight lifting, etc make sure to get help from a personal trainer first.
*. Avoid Fast Foods
This is another crucial thing that seems to destroy the health of the youth because of ingredients such as a lot of oil, sodium (lot of) and various other flavors, etc thus resulting a meal with higher amounts of fat and calories.
*. Don't over do your exercises.
This can again have a negative affect on your body thus minimizing bone and muscle growth if done in an excessive manner. So do it in the proper amount and the for best results find exercises programs that includes professional advisers, etc.
*. Say no to Diet Pills.
Although there can be good ones too but still at this age it is not recommended to use these products. So try to avoid them.
*. Drink Water.
Water is a basic element of all life forms. And in humans over 60% of our bodies consists of water. So drink your daily required amount which is for teens 7-8 glasses, etc.
*. Cut down eating intervals.
In another words eat 4-5 times a day but these meals has to be equal to the usual needed 3 meals. So each of these 4-5 ones will consists of somewhat lesser amounts than the standard 3 counterparts.
So anyway, I hope that I put together a reasonable answer to the easy weight loss for teens question and depending on your age, gender, height, etc the weight loss rate might wobble (fast, slow, etc). But if you follow these simple rules it is not an impossibility to achieve.
