If a 15 year old weighs 176 pounds how long would it take to lose 50 pounds?

The time it takes one to lose weight is dependent upon their current body type, eating habits, exercise habits, and if they are currently considered overweight. Diet and exercise routines should be evaluated to see what changes could be made that would be beneficial to the individual trying to lose weight. A healthy weight loss should not exceed 2 pounds per week. A primary care physician should be consulted before a new diet and exercise routine is started, especially for a minor.
