You are NOT FAT.
99 lbs? Read that number out loud to yourself. It's not even in the 100's!
But I know how you feel. If you're worried about it so much, start doing some cardio exercise, such as jogging or jumping jacks or dancing or DDR or something. Do about 20-30 crunches a day and be conscious of what you eat. I'm not saying full out DIET, I'm just saying to make wiser choices. We all eat junk food SOMETIMES, and it's perfectly fine, just don't make a habit of it.

Hope that helps (:

Try to increase yourself image while working towards the body you want.

No, your not over weight...but it always helps to eat more fruit and Veggies!
Also...it is not too early to start a treadmill or biking to tone up a little!!!

Answer 10

come on think you need to exercise and watch what you eat.

Answer 11

It really depends on your height but some people gain weight around there stomaches, some gain it in other places, it depends.

Exercise, like jogging or running for about 30 min - 1 hour per day. And don't eat any junk food, like chips cookies and fastfood. Eat fresh food thats low in fat and low in calories.
Good Luck.

Answer 12

if your tall you should weigh more but if your short and weigh more than you should be worried

Answer 13

everyone has fat on their stomachs, 99 pounds is not overweight you are very light in fact, just accept the weight you are it' s perfect, if you really want to lose weight, do some research on the internet to find a good dieting program for you and your age, but really you are not fat

Answer 14

You are young to wollry about weight. altohught at your age sometimes bullying can be a problem.
To loose that weight you should have a decent breakfast, low calorie lunch and a gealthy dinner, with some exercise each day.
Don't starve yourself cos this will result in the body going into fasting mode which holds onto that weight.
99lbs is not very much and I doubt you are much overweight at all!
Good luck, and try to talk with your mum about it, she can help you to eat well and maybe go swimming with you which burns 3 times more calories that walking.

Answer 15

How tall are you? That makes a difference. I do not think that that is too much though. My 14 year old is 5'3 and 120 lbs. She is beautiful and is not overweight at all. I'm not just bias because she is a swimmer and stays in shape with daily exercise.

Answer 16

What is so important for you at this age is to understand that good health is everything. Your body changes at this time to become more womanly, just be patient and everything will even out. If you want to do something healthy for yourself try yoga. You can take those DVD's out of the library or rent them at the video store I think. Take care and good luck love yourself - you are beautiful

Answer 17

That is a VERY slim weight. If it's just your stomach, you probably have not developed yet or you have a small frame.
Just eat a balanced diet, and your stomach bloating will go away.

Answer 18

I dont think thats over weight but if you want to loose some weight then go on a diet like no soda and try not to eat a lot of bread because theres a lot of calories in bread. Also you might want to start running around your neighborhood or if you have a pool swim laps in it and stuff.

Answer 19

if your 99 pounds you do not need to lose weight!!! you just need to tone. that will take a lot of work . but im sure you can do it. go to a gym and take classes.(the group ones). the instructure will understand and you can work on getting your body back. good luck!!

Answer 20

sounds like you just need some exercise.... get of the comp go out side and ride a bike walk ect

Answer 21

have you started your period yet? cause when you do... girls usually start to get a little pudgy spot on their belly. and if they don't take care of it, it gets bigger and ya bigger. but you aren't over weight. how tall are you? cause it also depends on that. i would consider myself fat....
but you got to eat healthy too. no soda or fastfood too often.

Answer 22

99 pounds isn't fat. Your body's going through a lot of natural changed,,, you will be a woman soon and everything will fill out perfectly. Please don't have a negative self image of yourself. If you have a little stomach wear those cute belts or a shirt that hides it. In 2 years you'll see. Be proud and love who you are and no one will even notice a little extra skin.

Answer 23

B,

John's right - unless you're very short, your weight is fine. If you're concerned about your stomach fat, just get a little more exercise - swin, walk, run, bike - and throw in some sit ups and crunches.

You'll be fine - don't stress over this. It's not worth it.

Answer 24

You sound just right!!! If you really have an issue with it talk to your doctor... If he/she gives you the go ahead try running it is the best way to get rid of belly fat.. Of course watch out for the sweets!!! Eat healthy!!!... At 13 I got into this what I will call my"chubby" stage but I outgrew it... I find most girls do... Focus on all your positive traits and don't worry about your weight so much!!!

Answer 25

You're supposed to have fat on your belly. Women are supposed be between something like 18%-23% body fat. It's got to be somewhere on you!

I can relate to your feelings, though--at that age, it's very normal to gain what is called "baby fat". It's extra fat that you put on in preparation for further physical changes your body will undergo. It's like your body knows it's going to be using a lot of energy and puts this extra fat on so that it has the energy it needs. I've seen counteless girls, and been one of them, who went through a phase of looking a little "soft", or on the chubby side, and within a year or two, it just naturally all went away.

Just take care of yourself--eat well and exercise--and let your body do what it needs to.

Answer 26

Don't worry about it. Really. It is called "baby fat". You still got some physical growing to do(till at least 18, your bones will stretch, giving you more height and longer arms, and muscle mass and fat and skin. So this fat you got right now will disappear. If you get rid of it now, you will starve(and by starving I don't mean being hungry so eating will cure that; no the "fat" is already processed food just waiting to go while you sleep so to starve the body when it needs it and you will end up a flat chested runt as an adult.
So again, don't worry about it. Just dress differently(maybe wear bulky sweaters)?
Okay, so you can't in gym. So what, the others are probably showing the same. Think of the belly flab as potential chest material later on.

Answer 27

yea i know how u feel..im 13 and dont weight that much either(but ised to be 120 pounds) and i seem to carry ALL of my weight in my stomach...but in order to lose that, u have to lose weight everywhere and since u actually seem underweight, i wouldnt recommend u just doing cardio...u gotta do muscle training too so u dont really lose weight, u just replace the fat with muscle(so do sum situps and crunches)

i just did cardio and ended up in a hospital from the weight loss...thats why strength training is important too...

Answer 28

Okay I think ur not, I'm 12 and I just work out so if ur not satisfied just work out make diets but don't stop eating, and don't listen to those people that calls u fat SO WHAT U CAN DO IS WORK OUT and you will have good results OH AND EAT ONLY HEALTHY THINGS but like you can eat potato chips like sometimes and not in the week

Answer 29

You can try finding your body mass. Go to this website http://nhlbisupport.com/bmi/. Divide your weight by your height, than compare your bmi to the chart. It will tell you if your overweight or not.

Answer 30

I have added two links to websites with information on exercising in general and abdominal exercises that will help you with toning your tummy muscles.

Good luck!
