Q: how to lose weight for 12 year old girl?

Energy in<energy out: There are things i need to know. Height, wgt, bmi, pubertal level, food intake, activity level are just starters. In general, weight gain occurs when we eat/drink more (energy in) than we expend with activity (energy out). There are lots of 'empty calories' in drinks, food portions may be too large. Teens and tweens need a minimum of 1 hour of vigorous exercise/day, more to lose weight.

Q: 12 year old 200lbs 166cm can not lose weight dosent eat candy drink some orange juice plays soccer everyday for 1hour?

Not about candy: At that size I would first have a regular checkup done as he may already have signs of pre-diabetes and high blood pressure. Once medical issues have been ruled out, you need to meet with a clinical dietitian and find out where his extra weight is coming from.People assume that it is sweets or deserts but it can be anything he consumes that he is not using to grow or burning off in activity.

Teen age weight: The best way to loose weight is with control of diet and exercise. For most teens the fastest way to do this is to cut out sugary beverages from their diet (soda, juice, coffee drinks, gatorade, etc).

Q: what are some easy exercises for a 12yo who wants to lose weight?

Walking & bicycle: I find it best to coax a child into finding an activity they like and bribing them if needed to give it a three wk trial. Something they can do with friends or with you like walking & cycling come to mind. Tennis leasons may open their eyes to a new activity, soccer ior hockey are also good if available. Getting the heart rate up for 30 min/day is the target. This + a healthy diet should help.
