Question
A 13-year-old boy with a height of about 160 to 163 centimeters and a weight of about 53 kilograms has gained weight due to lack of exercise in the past. Currently, he needs to lose weight quickly for specific reasons, while not affecting his height growth. How should he proceed?
Answer
At this age, the body is still in the growth and development phase, where weight and height may naturally change. It is recommended to maintain a normal lifestyle, actively participate in sports to promote physical development, and avoid using weight loss medications. In terms of diet, control the amount of food intake, avoid high-salt, high-oil, and fried foods, and consume more vegetables and fruits to achieve healthy weight loss.
