If you've tried to lose weight and can't, you should ask your parents to take you to the doctor and request some simple blood tests to determine whether or not your thyroid is functioning properly.  Hypothyroid (under active thyroid) is a very common reason for weight gain/inability to lose.  Ask for TSH, Free T3 and Free T4 tests.

Stay calm. I could help you in your problem. Listen to me then you'll know how to lose weight. :)

- Jogging 30 minutes in a day could make you more stronger.
- Drink 8-10 glasses of water for high metabolism.
- Do cardio exercises for faster digestion that will continue throughout the day.
- Know your required calorie intake in the whole day. You can ask from your doctor or in this app.
- Avoid sugary drinks and goods that can lead to obesity.
- And last, don't be pressured. There will be times that there will be no weight loss.

            Search also for some workouts in Google or YouTube. Hope this helps and good luck! :)
