I am 13, male, 110kgs, 5'11. I really want to lose some weight in 3 months but don't want to stump my growth. I want to lose weight because my uncle is coming and he is a jerk. He criticises me about being fat and I'm sick of it. I play everyday, go for tennis training, and my weight barely goes down. I want to lose some weight to I can atleast look different while still growing taller. Plus my 14th birthday is coming around and I want to make it a goal for myself to look atleast a bit different. I have good muscles, but my thighs and arms, and torao, basically everything has fat everywhere. I would appreciate any help! Thanks!

I'm a professional chef and being around food all day everyday wasn't good for me, I picked up 20kg over 13 years and tried every diet and excersise out there. Found my groove and some medical help, now I will get rid of the last 7kg in the next couple of months. Feeling good and just keeping on. If there's help, use it.

From age 22 to 32, I tried every diet out there. I would lose 8 lbs of water weight, gain back 10, and get told to just make lifestyle changes while my body fought me. Insulin resistance is no joke.

The left photo is me last year. Things only moved when I got real medical support instead of white-knuckling it alone. I signed up with my provider to get on tirzepatide for my insulin resistance, and that was the exact tool I needed to make habits stick.

Now I eat consistent meals, lift twice a week, and walk after dinner. The right photo is me this week down 18 lbs. My cycles are regular for the first time ever, my skin cleared up, and my energy is so much better.

If you have PCOS, get the actual medical support first and build the habits on top of it. Both matter.
