Losing 25 pounds in a 6 week period is quite a lot, and it is not very healthy, particularly at your age. Weight loss takes time. Low carb diets do result in rapid weight loss, but most of what you will lose is water weight, which you will gain right back.

In order to lose weight, try eating lots of veggies and fruits as snacks instead of chips and sweets. Swap out white bread for wheat bread products, and opt for white meat (chicken, fish, turkey) instead of red meat. Swap whole milk for skim milk. Little things like that.

Don’t forget the physical exercise!! Try and go for a run, go biking, swimming, whatever sport or physical activity you enjoy! This will help burn calories.

Hope this helps!

You have probably heard that not eating is bad for you, but it can be very healthy too. And you don’t have to workout to do this, unless you want to.
I know people who have went on water fasts for up to 30 days and were very healthy afterwards and were fine the entire way through. People tell you that it slows down your metabolism, well yes. But what other reason do they give that it’s bad? When you get done doing it, the first couple of days only drink juice, water, and soup. Then move to whole foods. I’ve heard of people losing 20 pounds in 14 days and they were exactly my height and weight(which is still in the healthy weight range). But you have to drink purified water everyday and at least 6 glasses of it. You will not become anorexic as some people will say, as long as you stop before you get too skinny. And don’t go straight to food when you get done, that’s why I said juice and soup first because your body will reject the food.
This woman did it for 30 days and lost nearly 30 pounds. She has a video for everyday she did it.
You can also search water fast on Youtube and watch other videos.
