How can you lose 15 pounds in one month?

Answer 1

15 pounds in one month equals a pound every two days, which is nearly impossible. I think the fastest you could lose a pound healthfully is in three days. And to do that, you have to cut your daily calorie intake by at least 500, and take up 30-40 minute cardio sessions at the gym 4-5 times a week. This may seem discouraging, but go for it! You'll feel so accomplished after you lose the weight!

Answer 2

First of all .. it probably is NOT very good on your body to stress it out ....your major organs will be stressed by losing 15 pounds in one month. The only way to lose weight.. whether it is one pound or 15 pounds.. is to eat less and excersise more. I suppose if you were to consume only soups and fruits during a 30 day period .. along with a lot of water everyday .. and excersised on a tredmill daily for an hour or more each day .. this would raise your metabolic rate quite a bit .. it just might work. Also, the danger involved depends on how overweight you currently are . You should look up your BMI (Body Mass Index) .. if you are in the normal range .. you should not try to lose any weight at all . Thank you and good luck ! :)

Answer 3

The truth is cutting your portions in half helps. You would have to eat 1750 less each day. Although you may be able to lose that much weight in a month, I don't know if it would be a healthy choice since it took you longer than a month to put it on and since it wouldn't be sufficient time for your body to adjust to that much of a weight change. A more realistic time frame would be 2 months at 2 pounds a week. Just my opinion.

Answer 4

Sweat a lot and do any cardio exercise that speeds your heart up. Don't over due it though. Try building yourself up a little at a time. Water is good for you but if you retain fluid (fingers swell etc.) then you don't need like 2 gallons a day. Also, please know you don't need to join a program or visit someones website to lose weight. Everyone only wants to cash in on your efforts. If you would like advice for free try msn website. They have great advice by experts on what exercises are best. Good Luck I've been there

Answer 5

Judging from the majority of answers to your question, you’ll notice,they say the same thing and I have to repeat it again, you'll achieve your goal of losing weight thru a well balanced diet, regular exercise (three/four times weekly 30 minutes each), and drinking 8 glasses of water daily. However, I'll go one step further to show you the best and quickest way to lose weight so that your entire system will achieve a balanced pH and not be depleted of the essential minerals that it needs. Here's why.
As the typical American diet is mainly acidic, except for most fruits and vegetables, it is close to impossible for our body to attain the alkaline levels that spells good health without the proper nutrients. This being the case, it is very difficult to lose weight unless you monitor closely your body's pH. Let me explain.
An acid pH has considerable influence over the majority of weight problems, including Diabetes and Obesity. It seems that a habitually acid pH can directly cause immediate weight gain. Here's what happens when a system is too acid. A condition known as Insulin Sensitivity or Syndrome X results, which forces too much insulin to be produced, and the body is flooded with insulin so that it won't waste any calories, it diligently converts every calorie it can into fat.
It is thought that an acid pH immediately signals the powerful genetic response to an impending famine, directly interacting with the all important and very sensitive, Insulin- Glucagons Axis. This makes the body produce more insulin than usual, and in turn, produce more fat and store it. In general, the more insulin is available to the body, the higher the probability that fat will be produced and stored, rather than used and burned as energy.
Thus, an acid pH will probably alert the genetic response to famine, directing more insulin to be produced and storing more fat than usual. Conversely, a healthy, slightly alkaline pH, will be more likely to yield normal fat burning metabolic activity, making no demands on the body to overly produce insulin and make fat, allowing fat-weight to be burned and naturally lost. And, with a healthy pH, there's less likely to be any yo-yo effect, or rebounding from a diet with additional weight gain. As long as nutritional stores are maintained, a healthy, slightly alkaline pH allows fat to burn normally for energy, rather than being hoarded under the mistaken biochemical belief of an impending famine.
The best way, though, to drink 8 glass of water daily is to mix it with Xtreme X2O, a natural and organic, coral calcium with 70 trace minerals, which transforms the pH of the water beverage to 9.9 (highly alkaline)!
You may ask why not just drink plain water? The answer is: When you drink lots of water, all of 8 glasses daily, it does not have the essential minerals (calcium, magnesium with 70 trace minerals) that your body needs for effective metabolism as the pH is rather low.
If you would like to know what your pH level is, let me know. For more info, check this site:

Think about how to gain 15 lbs, and then do the opposite. I'm not joking. It really does work.
