I'm 13, mtf, 152lbs, and I can't stand it!!! How do I lose wieght? I just can't stop binge eating.

Unfortunately I'm a bit on the heavy side as well. But, it's helped since being on hrt can have a "fat redistribution" effect. My chest is really rocking and "Baby Got Back"!

If you want to lose weight, keep an eye on your caloric and fat intake. I'd try for around 1500 calories and no more than 60 grams of fat. HOWEVER.... I'm not a Medical Clinician nor am I in the dietician scope of things. Perhaps you could inquire with a MD or see if a school nurse or dietician could give you some better advise than myself. I really do not know what your caloric intake should be as it may be different due to age, growth patterns etc...

152lbs .... Really? you call that fat? I would kill to be 152lbs ..... As of right now i am 180lbs

152lbs is sorta average for other guys around my age. And the binge eating is probably due to the damned T making you bulk up. Just thought I should say that its not your fault. Oh, and being "heavy" doesn't necessarily make you fat. You've got to take bone size, muscles etc into acount. Ha, PE theory finally does me some good.

How tall are you Rainbow? I am about ~152 and considered a little above underweight.

I would kill to be 180 lbs heck would be estatic with 200 lbs as I am a very large 274lbs down from 285lbs. But I have a very long torso so it hides most of my weight. People usualy guess me around 200-220.. 180 lbs on me is very thin..

One of the ways to help drop weight beside lots of exsercize. Is to try to aviod high frutose corn syrup as that stuff its a fat maker on steriods. also try to aviod empty calories( bad carbs). I let myself go because of deprestion . Then when I added on quiting smoking(insane munching) and hrt my weight jumped quick. I am content with my life now and am slowly but surely getting the weight off by just changing my eating habbits slightly. As soon As am able to get below 250lbs then will start serious excersize. My poor kness just can not handle heavy cardo at this weight..

The earlier in life you start any kind of calorie restriction the greater the risks are that you will be seriously overweight as an adult. It interferes with metabolism-so dieting is a serious trap. There is all kinds of scientific evidence out there if you want to look it up.

At your age you haven't gotten to your adult weight patterns and your body has additional nutritional needs that will affect you for life if not met. Not a big deal now perhaps but it will be.

If you want to look and feel better then eat healthier-high fat and sugar foods are somewhat addictive because of there effect on brain chemistry I have read-I know for me it is hard to kick them but once I do the cravings are much better and I feel better.. And exercise more. Which is the real key.

Not what anyone wants to hear but it's the only thing that really works long term without predisposing you to lifelong weight problems. Exercise doesn't mean a trip to the gym - find something you like, mountain biking, boarding, dance-anything-and do it -do a little more each day.

And now I know why I went from being able to eat anything I wanted in high school to having to be more careful than most in college. My meal patterns in high school were really screwy due to a high focus on academics and a dislike for both cafeteria food and bag lunches.
