How Long Will It Take Me to Lose Weight?

I am almost 15 years old and am 140 pounds. I asked the doc if i should lose some weight to be healthy. he says that i am healthy the way i am but if i wanted to be perfect for my height i should be around 130 lbs, so i want to lose 10 pounds. i was wondering if anyone could give me tips, maybe tell me how many calories is ok to eat each day for a growing teen??? i do have an elliptical at home. how often should i go on it and for how long? what foods should i stay away from? should i go in my mom’s portable infrared sauna? is infrared different from a normal sauna, and will it help me lose weight? any answers are appreciated.

also how long will it take to lose the 10 lbs.?

    Saunas are really only good for sweating some stuff out of your body, like a Brita filter. It only helps you lose water weight however which you should be replacing after you exercise anyway. Basically, I wouldn’t recommend sitting in the sauna for 30 mins after every workout like my retarded roommate. Apart from that, 30-40 mins of cardio a day while cutting back about 300-400 calories (just replace 1 meal a day with a bowl of cereal or something small) should get you to reach your goal in around 2-3 weeks.
