you r not fat. if you want to tone up keep eating normally and start some exeercise to get your heart going.

you are not fat but if you want to gain muscle around the stomach area, sit-ups are great. if you want to tone up your arms, push-ups or weight-lifting (start small) will help. running helps to tone the muscles in your legs, again start small and add a bit every day.Remember, muscles weigh more than fat so as long as you keep eating healthy, don't worry if you gain a pound or two - it's not fat, it's the muscles you're developing.Good luck!

I DO NOT give dieting advice to kids as I do not wish to be responsible for another ending up in an ED clinic. If you believe yourself to be overweight, then you go to your GP (doctor) and have them refer you to a dietician specialising in helping over weight and obese teens lose weight healthily and safely.I AM NOT going to answer that question (for reasons see above).
