I'm 17 years old, and well, frankly put, Fat. I'm 5'11/6'0 and 218lbs. I've talked to some people and they say I should be around 185-190. Now, I have no weights, nothing in my else that could help me get fit.

How can I lose 20-23 lbs? I'd love to do so before my senior year so I could play basketball.


Thanks guys in advance!

Start walking! then gradually add in bursts of running....

And JayC2524 is right - you need to take a look at your food choices.

You can get a plenty good workout without equipment! Check under exercise program at the top of the screen - follow the link and it will ask you questions about your goals and equipment, then generate a workout plan for you!
