Answer 1

To lose that much weight in that short a time, first make sure with your doc that it's safe. If that's a green light, you'll need to change diet and add a lot of daily exercise to make your goal in that short amount of time.

1) get all refined sugar and simple carbs out of your diet. No sodas, no fruit juices, primarily water and Crystal Light. No bread, no pasta, white rice. Take a look at Phase 1 of the South Beach Diet for specific guidelines. Even if you don't go past the 14-days, it'll help a lot.

2) You'll need to build daily aerobic exercise into your schedule. I suggest either running or bicycle, try to get to an hour a day as quickly as possible.

I've lost 7 lbs. in 8 days doing this, but I'm not going hog wild on the aerobic exercise daily.

Answer 2

I understand you mentioned do not reply if you are gonna say no longer do it however I'll provide you a few causes why you should not. a million. It does vastly lessen your metabolism two. When you do devour (even in small amounts) your frame instantly converts it to fats to retailer on account that your frame is going into survival mode. three. Its very rough if no longer unattainable to broaden your metabolism to a healthful factor whilst ravenous, in spite of the support of inexperienced tea and different metabolizing beverages/meals four. Your organs undergo from the loss of vitamins five. You COULD die. 6. The weight you lose is water weight most often. Which best comes again tenfold 7. You don't have the force to determine. you'll be able to be worn out and torpid. eight. Your hair and nails might be brittle If you insist on doing this you will have to double your water consumption (eight cups an afternoon? drink extra). Ultimately you first-rate guess is to lessen your calorie consumption. You can lessen it to approximately six hundred cals an afternoon nonetheless relying to your frame sort, dimension, and top that can be too little. I could advocate a million,000 energy an afternoon with lots of water and check out your first-rate to reduce out all carbs or such a lot (bread, rice, potatoes and so on). Exercise every time you'll. I are not able to strain sufficient how principal it's to KEEP HYDRATED. Don't starve your self. anorexia is an unsightly disorder.

Answer 3

you shouldnt be losing that much weight in 2 weeks cuz it can kill you. Ur 125? what's wrong with that? I think that's a pretty good size for your height, but if u really want to lose a few pounds you could try eating nothing but protein for the next 2 weeks. You could probably lose like 8-10lbs..maybe more. You shouldnt be on that diet for more than 2 weeks though cuz it's necessary to put some carbs in ur body. But yea, just for these two weeks eat lean meats, nuts, green vegetables, eggs, cheese..and that's it. Drink lots of water and make sure you do some exercise too.

Answer 4

you really can't without endangering your health seriously

just start a good diet & exercise routine now & with all of the activities you do during vacation you will loose weight then also

being a teenager means feeling a lot less than self confident, you don't have to be a barbie doll to be beautiful, 5'3 & 125 is not a bad weight at all and you will still look georgous in a bikini!!

take care of yourself, the body you have now has to last a life time!

Answer 5

Cut off you right arm!!! :) Just kidding but I hate giving you the answer because you are young and it can really damage your digestive system and your overall health. With that said its your life so here goes. You can only lose about 2 lbs of fat in a week. The only other weight you can lose is skeletal(bones) or water.
Losing water weight is the way most people cut weight fast. First thing to do is get a plastic suit or a sweat suit or layers of clothes. Secondly on day one take in a lot of water, I know this sounds like an opposite but I am trying to keep you alive. Next things is to find an exercise bike, treadmill or elyptical machine.
Thirdly get ready to workout. Workout for about an hour in the morning and in the evening. ONLY drink 2 cups of water per day after day one. Eat one banana a day for potassium.
Fourth thing is too cut your calories to about 1000 cal. You will feel dog tired all the time and be moody but hey its the price you pay. (Make most of your calories protein i.e. LOTS of meat. Without carbohydrates your body will release water in your system and keep you from being bloated.)
Lastly you will drop weight fast so get lots of sleep, and on vacation keep your water to 2 cups of water per day and stay out of the sun or atleast keep cool. The sun will make you nutty if you stay in it for too long after a major weight loss.
After your vacation send me an e-mail ([e-mail]). I will tell you how to get control of your body image issues and how to stay in shape for life. Take care and be safe.

Answer 6

Excercise every morning, run a mile in the morning. Then, Go home and do some excercise. Dont eat meat. Just eat veggies. Take diet pills. Eat a vitamin everyday. Then after two weeks, u will be in the best shape.

Answer 7

10 quick pounds, but if your're not careful you gain right back.
Drink lots of water. Can drink diet soda with each meal.

Day 1- 2 bananas for each meal. BF, Lunch & dinner = 6 bananas

Day 2 - 2 hard boiled eggs for each meal. Bf, lunch & dinner. = 6 eggs

Day 3- 2 lean breakfast steaks for each meal. BF, Lunch & dinner = 6 steak cuts.

Drop 8-10 pounds. Can be more if you combine with exercise. Cannot repeat diet within one month's time.

Hope this helps.

Answer 8

My advice is that you don't. However, I had a friend who wrestled and in order to make weight before a match he would wrap himself in plastic wrap, then put on a sweatsuit and ride a stationary bike in the showers with all of the heads on full blast with the hottest water coming out. He HAD to make weight though because 265 was the highest weight and if he didn't make weight he didn't wrestle. It's all water weight though and as soon as you drink something it all comes back.

Answer 9

Dont try because it puts too much strain on your body and is very dangerous plus I as a man prefer the curves of a healthy woman than they skinny womans weight.

Answer 10

That is impossible. Even if you starve yourself, you cannot lose that much weight. If you do it will all be water weight and you will become dehydrated. Just eat healthier, do a lot of cardio. It works.
