Exercise is great for staying healthy and in shape, but if you're trying to lose weight specifically then exercise won't do much on its own, you do burn calories when exercising but it's not very much.

If you need to lose weight it's best to have a good diet with the right amount of calories, there's nothing wrong with treats like chocolate just make sure you don't eat too much.

you're FIFTEEN!!!! Why don't you just join one of your H.S. sports teams?
Don't get me wrong, I think wanting to take responsibility for your health and fitness at your age is a great thing, but geez... get out there and play while you can!

This. Absolutely this. Go and play a team sport, don't consign yourself to the gym like us oldies until you have to.

(edit to add: "oldies" is somewhat tongue in cheek, before anyone gets offended)
