Ok I'm 14 years old. I'm 5'10" and weight 175 lbs. I hate looking at my friends cuz they're all super skinny. I've tried diets but they just make me want to eat more. Does anyone know about any deits that are good and work fast? I'm going to see some of my friends that havn't seen me since I did look somewhat good soon and I don't want them to think different of me and plus I like 1 of them... HELP!

the best diet in the world especially for young people is eating real foods whenever and whereever you get hungry, fruits, vegies, soups sandwiches with real foods like peanut butter or turkey, all nuts and seeds, whole grain cereals etc. I do not suggest you eat less just eat better,
permanent fat loss is achieved by eating quality caloires on a body demand basis, there is no other way, diets have not worked for 100 years they have be advocated as weight control, this eating less to weigh less is a myth.
you have to eat more to weigh less. but alot of people won't do that because it is so slow, and dieting as a teen ager only sets you up for obesity later so they have said on the tv.

The reality is that there is NOTHING that works fast. If it were easy to lose weight then no one would be overweight. Before you think about trying something stupid, know that:
--Throwing up will burn your throat with stomach acid and might cause so much damage that you dissolve your throat and have to eat through a tube for the rest of your life.
--Starving yourself will wreck your metabolism and make you gain weight faster. Starvation freaks the body out. Fasts and juice-fasts are starving.
--Diet pills are scams. Read the fine print: They want you to take them while eating right and exercising. Why? Because eating right and exercising is the only way you can lose weight.
You are going to have to accept that you will meet these friends as you are. Your lifestyle has made you what you are. If you want to change, then you have to change your lifestyle. It won't be fast, but if you do it right, you can learn how to be healthy and fit and keep that body for the rest of your life.
