Eat lots of fruit, cut out on comfort foods, and don't eat after 7, just drink water. Drink 2 glasses of water before each meal to fill you up more. Also get regular exercise, like doing 3 sets of 20 sit ups, and increase the sit ups by 2 everyday, or increase the sets.

Any more than 1kg (2.2 pounds) weight loss a week isn't healthy.

Been told by dieticians, doctors and gym trainers. Especially as the OP isn't even overweight, actually nearer to underweight and is only 16 so growth is a concern.

Meals can still be the same, but keep your a bit carbohydrates lower if you want to lose more, but remember that it is your main source of glucose. The fat would then be used for making glucose and you shed weight. You would be drinking a lot more water anyway so it should fill you up more and enable you to not eat as much as normal.
Try more fibre too.
Your welcome

I flucctuate at least 2KG in one day lmao
I lost 5 kilos in 4 weeks for prom last year so it is possible as long as you do it healthily. E.g. exercising as well instead of simply cutting down calories since your body will just make it harder to lose anymore and you'll be lacking the needed vitamins
You can research online foods that are needed in your diet but low in calories e.g. I remember eating carrots and spinach quite a lot.
Remember that losing weight does not mean to completely cut down a section in the food pyramid since you need all the things there. Just eat smaller portions and exercise more. But exercising more doesn't mean going crazy with it. You can do something like jogging in the morning for half an hour in the morning, being more active around the house and going on an evening walk after dinner.

We dont know your weight , age and height so impossible to say how realistic it is.
When people tell you how much they lost, just remember you dont have their stats.
Anything more than 1-2lbs a week thends tp be unhealthy and unsustainable.
1lb a week tends to be more realistic especially if you intend to keep it off.
You dont sound as though you know enough about how weight loss works OP.
3lbs a week is a theoretcial 1500 calorie daily deficit. You are going to struggle with that unless you do large amounts of exercise.

No no as in losing more than 1kg a week could affect your 2 years left of growth

Fluctuation isn't actual weight gain/loss though - to accurately record your weight it should be roughly the same time in the morning on the same day each week after you've gone to the loo and before you've eaten breakfast.
Chuck it out the window.
