From Jana, Age 14

TO ANNE AGE 17. I really think that you give great advise, so can please help me? I'm 14, 146lbs and 5'5. I play competitive tennis, so i practice 3hours in the morning Monday-friday on alternate weeks. During the other weeks I use the time for conditioning. I have been doing that last summer and have lost a great deal of weight. But then I started bingeing on candy and lost control over what I ate so I gained about 23 lbs in this school year. During a noraml day I will be eating 5 meals about 400 calories each because I will need that much energy for my tennis and conditioning. Heres my basic schedule (omitting stuff like driving,etc) for a tennis week: wake up, run for 30 min, eat breakfast, play tennis for 3 hrs, go to the gym, spend 1 hr 10 min on the elliptical, 30 min on stairmaster, 30 min riding a bike, then lift weights for 20-30 min (every other day). I will eat a snack, Then I will swim for 1 hour. At home i'm gonna eat a snack, run for 30 minutes and then do a 20 minute winsor pilates tape. Then i will eat dinner, watch a bit of TV, and then do an advanced tae bo tape. I will be getting about 9:30 hours of sleep every night. I will be eating a very balanced diet with lots of protein. By the end of the summer I wanna be 121 lbs. But the thing is that if i'm gonna do everything i'm supposed to I will loose all the weight before August. I have no problems doing all that work because I'm used to it. So, what should I do? Any advise? Anybody? PLEASE!!!!!!!!!
