You have to make sure you get some good cardio in your workouts. When I was 16, and on the field team, I only liked to lift. Running/Cycling/Whatever is important as relatively low-energy exercises like that activate your oxidative (fat burning) energy system. Lifting is a much higher-energy exericse and runs off of carbs, primarily.

Finally, exercise isn't the end all. Nutrition is #1. You are, very literally, what you eat. So eat healthy and you'll be healthy.
