My son was in the same situation at 12.
He started getting chubby in 3rd grade. By age 12 he hated what he looked like.
One day he woke up and decided to change. It worked. He lost weight, got really healthy. He's now 17 and has never had a weight relapse. He looks gorgeous. (a bit too gorgeous - it's going to his head... :)
This is what he did (and it amazed me - but I helped).
1. He asked me to help. To make sure that there was healthy food available for him instead of what I usually throw together at the end of a long work day.
2. He cut out ALL junk food. Everything. Didn't touch it for a year. No fries, no burgers, no pizza, no pop, no slurpees. He cut out snacks with loads of sugar - like chocolate covered granola bars, fruit roll-ups, scooby snacks and all candies.
3. He ate a lot of meat and even managed a few vegetables.
For breakfast he gave up all the usual breakfast cereals and ate oatmeal or yogurt (didn't tell the guys at school of course - yogurt is apparently NOT a boy's food... lol).
For lunches he ate a single sandwich with lots of meat inside and no sauces and a fresh fruit (apple or orange).
For dinners I made sure to cook real meat meals, or bring home a cooked chicken. He only had dessert a few times and it didn't affect his weight when he did (but it was always a small piece of cake, never 2nds).
Even when we went out to a restaurant, he would go over the menu and order the healthiest thing there - something without too much fat and almost no sugar. Things like mashed potatoes instead of fries, or rice even - vegetables on the plate and no sauces.
He taught me, the mom, a lot during that year. We learned healthy eating together and we're both much better because of it.
could i like wake up at 5 eat breakfest and go back to sleep. aslo when u say dont after 6 does that mean u cat eat for the whole day of just eat small meals

As you did not put on that weight in one night or for that matter in one month,then how do you expect it to go down in a month.It is easy to put on weight but you will have to work real hard to lose it.Dieting plans are also not going to help you so fast, in fact these kind of plans just might harm your health.So do not get into all this,instead start to follow a strict healthy diet which you can sit and chalk out with your parents or a dietitian.You will also have to follow a strict exercise regime so as to keep yourself on your toes all the time.This will keep keep calories from piling on more than you are going to lose during the day.Take one step at a time so that once the weight goes it does not come back.And to top it all stay happy,learn to love yourself and your body.
