I'm fifteen years old,and I have a body like the pop singer Beyonce Knowles,but my problem is I'm having difficulty losing alittle weight in my mid-section. More so of my sides(love handles) than my abs. How can I shape up my abs and the sides of my stomach. My body is already great,but this would make it even healthier since the middle is the most ddangerous place to gain weight. Please help me. |

Read the Health & Nutrition article, "How do I get a 6-pack?" for the answer to your question. Since you are under 18 and still growing, we recommend you check with your doctor AND your parents before starting any weight loss or exercise program.
More importantly, we think comparing yourself to Beyonce is very unrealistic. It's her job to look that way and she probably spends thousands of dollars on personal trainers and nutritionists not to mention the hours of dancing she does everyday to stay in top condition. Trying to look like a super model or pop diva is almost impossible. Most of them don't even look as good as their pictures thanks to good lighting and airbrushing. The important thing is to look and feel great about being YOU!

I am a 12 year old girl, and I was wondering if home made fried hamburgers are good for me. |

Homemade hamburgers are great, as long as you eat them in moderation. Grilling or baking is more healthful than frying but eating a fried burger once in a while is fine. We suggest you talk to your parents about which foods to choose for good health. |

Even when I try watching what I eat and exercise I cannot lose any weight at all...I am currently 123 pds. It seems like I gain weight so easy where before I always maintained my weight. Any suggestions? |

Unfortunately, age catches up with all of us and it is not uncommon to put on weight after age 30. There are other factors as well. You may actually be eating more than you think. Remember, to lose one pound of fat you need to burn 3500 calories more than you consume. That’s an average of 500 calories a day. Many busy moms overeat without realizing it by finishing their kid’s plates or snacking while they pack lunches. Why not try fatburn.com for one month and find out the truth. Simply enter EVERYTHING you eat, the exercise & activities you perform, and fatburn.com does the rest. |

i,m 35 years old and 6 feet tall. I weigh 205 pounds. I,m of medium frame. When people try to guess my weight they usually give me 180-185 pounds. I really look much more thin then most 205 pound males who are 6 feet tall.
I dont have bulging muscles so how can a lean guy who is not very muscular weigh so much? |

According to your BMI, you are considered overweight---see for yourself by using the free tool on the Home page. We don't know what you look like, but many people are able to hide their weight in clothes. Perhaps you carry your extra pounds around your waist or on your stomach so it's simply not noticeable. Being tall also helps and weight gain on someone of your height is much less noticeable than on someone who is 5'7". |
