I am a 16 year old male, I weigh 159 lbs. and I am 5' 7", I lost almost 20 pound over the summer and was 152 lbs. I gained a few pounds back because I swam over the summer and I can't swim anymore so I was wondering if I can lose weight by walking or running? I am thinking maybe 30 minutes of walking day, 15 minutes of running the next day, and just rotate that every day? Will that help me lose weight?

Something I used to do was stairs. Running up stairs at a steady pace will really give you a great cardio workout. If you can I would suggest running also. Run 3 days straight and let your body rest the next.

Find out how you can loose weight and stay healthy by following blood group Diet . http://www.diskovery.co.in/how_to_loose_weight__how_to_gain_weightThe dynamics of weight loss are related to the changes your body makes when you follow your genetically tailored diet. There are two factors. 1) First, as your body makes the dramatic shift of eliminating foods that are poorly digested or toxic, the first thing it does is try flush out the toxins that are already there.Those toxins are mainly deposited in the fat tissue, so the process of eliminating toxins also means eliminating fat.2) The second factor is the effects that specific foods have on the bodily systems that control weight. Depending on your blood type, the lectin activity of certain foods may do the following:__ Interfere with the digestive process.__ Slow down the rate of food metabolism, so you don't efficiently burn caloriesfor energy.__ Compromise the production of insulin.__ Upset the hormonal balance, causing water retention (oedema), thyroiddisorders and other problems.Our blood contains aeons of genetic memory--bits and pieces of specific programming, passed on from our ancestors in codes we are still attempting to comprehend. One such code rests within our blood type. Perhaps it is the most important code we can decipher in our attempt to unravel the mysteries of blood and its vital role inour existence.__ When you use the individualized characteristics of your blood type as a guide for eating and living you will be healthier, you will easily reach your ideal weight and you will slow the process of ageing.__ Your blood type is a more reliable measure of your identity than race, culture or geography.
