Diet and Exercise! Tips? Tricks?

Well here’s a question I just had to answering straight away:

Question: Hello, I am 14 years old. Female. 5′5". 145 pounds. I would really like to get healthy and lose a few pounds (maybe 15-20) I would like to know some simple and easy meal ideas (preferably stuff I could make with what I already have at home, no lamb or something weird like that)
How many meals to eat a day?
What to eat for snacks?
How much exercise? (I prefer to get it all done at once like on a treadmill instead of doing a bunch of little leg moves and whatnot)
How long until I lose about 15-20 pounds?
What do I do to stay on track? (this is a big one for me)
And any other tips and tricks ;)
Answer: hi dear
