Cobalt, at your age and weight, losing 4 pounds in 4 days is not normal or heatlhy. Given your medical problems and the feelings you are describing, we highly recommend that you see your physician, or at least talk to your parents. You need medical advice, which is something we cannot provide. I'm sorry, I know this is probably not what you wanted to hear. We all feel very strongly about this, though, and urge you to discuss your diet with your parents and your doctor or nutritionist. The South Beach Diet is designed for adults, unless you do it under your doctor's supervision. You mentioned in another post that your doctor, mother, and friend think you should not lose weight. Please consider taking their advice. Wait a few years, as your body grows and changes. Research has shown that when kids your age go on diets, they are more likely to develop an eating disorder, or become obese as an adult. I'm sure you don't want to experience either one. You are not fat, most of us would love to weigh what you weigh. The important thing is that you are healthy, but it sounds like you are experiencing some health problems that may be related to your diet. PLEASE discuss this with your parents, and do not continue this diet without their approval and guidance. We cannot provide those things to you, as you are 13 years old.

It makes me feel like i wanna run about, and jump about, I had to use some of the energy up by exercising even more than usual earlier! I've lost about 3-4 lbs in the last 4 days, and it's really getting me exited 
but also making me feel nervous, in a way! I just feel so elated! 
I can't even sit still and watch TV, or walk past the mirror and not stop and flash myself a grin! Lol! I'm odd, I know
