Weight loss program for a 15 year old male?
Hi, I'm 15, 5'8 (maybe 9 inches), and I weigh roughly 173 before I eat anything.
On a day to day basis I drink 4-6 cans of soda, eat 2-3 meals a day, sleep for 8-10 hours, and get little to no exercise because I sit on my Xbox all day.
School is coming soon and I want to try losing weight. My long term goal is to lose 30 pounds by Christmas.
I have already started replacing all of that soda with water and I'm going to start getting a better sleep schedule for school.
I was wondering if you guys have any helpful tips for losing weight and I would also appreciate any exercise/workout routines I could do in my room (I'm a shy person and don't want to go to the gym plus my mom doesn't want me running miles outside since we live next to a highway). I was also wondering if gum is a good replacement for snacks like chips.
Thank you for your time and help :)

If it's sugar-free, then yes, gum is a good replacement. I would recommend trying tabata workouts since they are quick and don't require a lot of space. Just be sure to avoid processed food, and the pounds should melt off like butter! :)
