well....since you are still pretty young, if you are carefull for 3 weeks you could see results in your clothes. I would suggest cutting out sugar, and starches. Do a good bit of exercising including resistance...weights. And....cut way back on soda and replace it with pure..unflavored...water. Good luck.

It is not healthy to lose more than 2 pounds in one week. I agree with the poster who suggested cutting down on carbs (processed foods, white flour, rice and white sugars)and cutting out sodas. If you are desperate for a soda then take seltzer and add some fresh squeezed orange juice, (or whatever juice you prefer) to it. It is delicious and does not contain all of the sugar. Working out is also helpful, but don't use weights more than 3 times (every other day) a week.
