How much water weight can I lose between now and Sunday?

Question

In a sauna or not drinking water for a couple days or the like... I know it's not healthy- this is only temporary before weigh in at a bodybuilding contest. As soon as I weight in at 165lbs or less I can start drinking some of it back. I weight 171lbs right now and hoping to find a way to weight in at 165lbs at 9am on Sunday morning.

Answer 1

Okay, okay. As long as you know it's not healthy to do this...

You can take diuretics to help lose water weight. The best brand, in my opinion, is Diurex. You can also mix in lemon juice with your water (to make sure you are keeping a little hydrated) which will help, too. Since lemons are a natural diuretic, it'll move the water through your system.

Good luck.

Answer 2

A bodybuilder tried this before an event with diuretics and died. You can safely and heathily do this with fasting. Lose over 10 pounds of water between now and Sunday.

nicely, i don't be conscious of ways tall you're or how lots you weigh, however the calorie intake is as low as everyone would desire to have. The actual video games you planned sound solid, yet attempt to artwork in some middle workouts -- something to artwork substantial muscle mass (or is that element of your 'cardio exercising consultation'?) How lively are you different than the planned exercising? you may ought to bump your energy as much as 1500 or your physique will burn muscle fairly of fat; leaving you skinny yet flabby ;( returned, i don't be conscious of your modern physique state, or your purpose weight, yet a 125lb lady with this time table and calorie intake could use 1600-2000. meaning you will lose 4 hundred-800 energy an afternoon, or some million-2 lbs each and every week. (2800-5600 energy) solid success!

Answer 4

I went to a spa and got a slimming wrap (a seaweed slimming wrap...there is also a brand name chain called 'suddenly slender' that it suppose to work even better). It costs about 50-70 dollars depending on where you go. Get wrapped and then have them put you in a sauna for about 30 minutes. I lost about every drop of water in my body. Check it out.

Answer 5

Please dont listen to anyone who hasnt done it. I have been a bodybuilder for years and the only person who has made any sense in the above comments is the person who said use diuretics.

Yep they work, it sucks but they work. I used to box in college and had to make wiegh all the time.

I would suggest a body suite and cardio, cardio, cardio. Check out www.bodybuilding.com for help.

Also if your 'on' you should have to worry about cutting. Am curious as to why your over this close to competition time

Answer 6

How about you just exercise and continue to drink fluids yet don't over drink. You are risking dying....Anyway drinking water helps flush out the impurities in your body which will help you lose weight.

Answer 7

I think 5 lbs at the most. My friend was in the Marines and had to do something w/saran wrap and Preparation H.. I think it worked temporarily. You put the cream all over your upper torso and then wrap it w/saran for 4-5 hours. She also drank a bottle of laxatives though..

Answer 8

Sweetie, not drinking water won't work.. DRINK lots of it, therefore moving the water in your body out when you potty!! BTW..it is possible to lose up to 10 lbs.

Answer 9

Losing water means losing salt and potassium- this can lead to a heart attack and or skipped heart beat and dehydration in this heat- please do not try this- If you take B complex and eat green peppers you will naturally throw off the excess and not get sick
