Ht. 5'4", Today: 130 lb (BMI %tile: 85) - When was ten years, i started to do crunches and alot of wiehgt lifting. I was training to get a six pack. i exercised 3 hours a day. but then i heard that if you get a six pac, that the muscle becomes too hard, and the muscle won't stretch, therefore, stutning my growth. So then i stopped exercising. Back then, i was really skinny. Ever since then, i've just been getting bigger and bigger. Then the summer when i was twelve, i made a commitment to lose weight, i exercised, i dieted, i did everything, but i didn't seem to lose any of the weight. Then last summer, I tried to lose weight again, but it didn't work either. I have every kind of diet. Weight Lifting, running, jogging, situps, pushup, i've done it all. I have a pull up bar in my room. i've done every diet you can imagine, i've tried fasting, high protein, i've tried eating only veggies, slim fast, you know, like after a certain point, a person gets frustrated. I want to go on a diet and exercise again, but i wanna do it the RIGHT way, and actually see results. I'm not overweight, but i am at risk of becoming overweight, and i want to prevent myself from becoming overweight. I'm 13 year old, male, 5'4 130lbs. So can somebody help me and suggest a diet that might actually work?
