weight loss during puberty?

[friendly_hopeful]

im not sure if this goes here but is it true that if yo work out during puberty you can lose weight a bit faster because of all the hormones going nuts?

[johnnyboyy]

your hormones actually make you gain weight but if you work out even the slightest bit then you are most likely to gain muscle

[boysboysboys]

i think you actually do loose weight in puberty cos your getting taller and stuff so the skin sort of spreads out and makes you look thinner

i was kinda chubby before puberty but now im really thin

[Erick]

Yes, it is true... if u want to lost weight puberty is the time to do it.

You are getting taller your will look slimmer but I think the weight will remain the same. You might get a faster metabolism so it would help if you try to lose weight.

[Giles]

Puberty can cause you to put weight on, but as you're getting taller you will look thinner so yeah.. It's whatever you make of it.

[mrbob360]

yes most people do loose weight due to ur body requireing more engery and so u end burning more fat to produce energy but if u excersie you will help this process and strenthin ur mucles

if that helped plz plus rep

It will come down to your metabolism weather or not its fast or not, it is more commen to gain weight during puberty

I'd call it a myth, just because it is so hard to judge this because everyone is truly different. The results will really vary from person to person, but typically most people fill out during puberty so it would appear that you are losing wait when really you're just growing and gaining more muscle mass.
