GOod LORD! 40lbs in 2 weeks would be horrible for you body!
2-3lbs / week is healthy
Exercise, cut out fats, eat healthy... take your time.

It is not ideal to lose that much weight in 2 weeks because you are bound to gain back all that weight and possibly MORE later on.
Realisticly, you can lose about 2 - 2 and a half pounds a week and for maintenance you need to think about healthy eating and exercise.
You're only 12 years old, most likely it's just baby fat.. because your body is still growing & you're going to get taller and slimmer.
But if you are overweight and thinking of dieting, you need to talk to someone who can give you expert advice on healthy eating, such as a dietician.
