What is more effective?

[Anonymous]

Im 14. I've lost 4 pounds in 2 weeks due to barely eating and hard gym personal fitness exercise like running plus coffee. What are some ways I can lose more weight faster. I was 210 now I'm 206.

Well, barely eating isn't good. Your body does need energy to function properly, especially if you are working out. Drink plenty of water and eat foods with water (like broccoli, cabbage, radishes, baby spinach, grapefruit), eat brown rice, lean meat like white chicken breast, Alaskan salmon, Albacore tuna, and rainbow trout are good for you. Lower on mercury, but has good protein.

You are really young, so losing more than 1-2 pounds a week isn't good for you. Take it easy, eat right and have fun with your exercising! :) If you are doing 60 minutes of exercise a day (power walking, jogging, cycling, cardio, anything) you should be good. Don't over exert, you can seriously hurt yourself.

The faster you lose weight, the faster it'll come back.
Effective weight loss is more focused on changing your lifestyle to be healthier as a whole versus just shedding the pounds if you want it to stay off.

Make your portions 3/4 of the size of what they were previously. Introduce regular workouts into your routine, 3-4x/week but nothing too intense. If you do HIIT a couple times a week right from the get-go, you'll burn yourself out and start to dread exercise. Losing weight without exercising will be painfully slow. It's important to choose a fitness routine that's effective, but not so intense that you won't be able to be consistent with fitting it into your schedule.

4 pounds in 2 weeks is a great achievement :) looks to me you're doing pretty good so far so just keep doing what you're doing. When you're more fit you can increase the amount/intensity of the exercises you're doing. And remember that in losing weight consistency is what matters the most. Good luck!

The pace you're losing weight at right now is perfect. Don't rush it or it'll get unhealthy. Patience and consistency is key when it comes to fitness goals.

Barely eating and hardcore exercise is BAD for you. You need to eat!

You need to eat girl! Healthy food + excercise = best results!
