Well I'm actually on here for my little sister right now. She's 12, but my parents won't let her get an account. I'll let her type now.

Hey guyz. Well I'm 12 and I'm not exactly FAT, but I feel uncomfortable in the...waist...area. I don't eat much because I have a small appetite, but I guess I have a low metabolism? I mean, I eat healthy too, I'm mostly vegetarian and I almost never eat fast or junk food. I've been doing track 5 days a week for 2 months and the fat doesn't seem to go away! My sis can't understand, because the advice you guyz gave her about doing track has helped her slim out a bit. So I was wondering if you guyz know why I can't lose any of this fat, how I can lose it, or if it just has to do with my age and the fact that I'm still maturing. Maybe I'll naturally slim out in the future?

Most likely you will. When I turned 15 (16 now) I lost about 30 pounds without doing too much of anything at all (though I'd still like to loose about ten more pounds and a inch or two. lol). My mom said that it was probably baby fat and, from what you're saying, that's most likely all that it is for you. Just be patiant and try and lead as much of a heallthy lifestlye that you can and you should see the weight go in time naturally. Also, I know exactly what you're talking about with the low metabolism because i have the same thing. Just up the fiber in your diet, and if you need to, or if you have trouble adding the fiber to your diet, take fiber supplements. =) Hope that helps.

Ok, thanks, I'll tell my sister that! She'll be happy to know something about this.

drink lotsa water!

apparently, it helps if you down a glass before every meal, but dont drink anything during that meal or for another half an hour. if you eat when you have water inside you, youre more likely to realise when youre full. so even if you think you eat healthily and are not sure, its a good way to check.

I found fat dropped at i turned a teenager.

I definitely think you will slim out soon. I went through a period like that around your age also. Then i grew a few inches, matured, and lost all that weight. Everything that i can see you are doing is fantastic. Keep it up. If in a few years it's not going away and you are still keeping up your healthy habits then you may want to consider seeing a doctor. They might be able to help.

Hmm..
make sure you eat well-balanced meals,
dedicate half an hour to excersise.
You should do okay.
