Answer 1

you weigh 130 and you want to lose 22lbs? Are you insane? You don't need to lose weight. Don't be stupid now.

Answer 2

I can understand the need to lose weight. We probably all need to lose weight. Lord knows, I do. But losing weight for a Christening? Are you kidding me? Who cares if you show up looking like a beached whale at the Christening? Are you going to be in a bikini or something? Chill out. Summer doesn't start for another 18 weeks. And it's EASY to lose 22 lbs in 18 weeks, if you exercise and diet. Plus, you will have lost some of that weight by the Christening, although, once again, I don't know why this is important, unless you're trying to impress one of your cousins. LOL!!!

700 calories a day might be a bit harsh. Losing 22lbs in 11 weeks is possible, but you might want to add in a bit of exercise as well. Doctors will tell you losing 1-2lbs a week is what they recommend. If you only do it by cutting calories, reduce your caloric intake per day by 1,000.

3,500 calories = 1lb ==> 3,500 x 2 = 7,000 calories = 2lbs

All you have to do is burn 1,000 more calories each day than you take in. I still wouldn't recommend only 700 calories a day. That's a bit low. It takes some work, but a healthy diet and exercise is the best combo. Best of luck!

Answer 4

I've tried many diets and couldn't make anything work. Since having my first child, I've been carrying around an extra 30 pounds. This diet just made sense and showed me that everything I was doing before was wrong and a waste of my time.

The plan was so refreshing and so simple to follow. I did everything plan said and lost 23 pounds in the first three weeks. I'm now starting the diet again to lose 7 more pounds. This plan has changed my life.

Get started today!

Answer 5

losing weight too fast can actually be worse for you. You should probably only lose 5 lbs the first week then 2 lbs every week after. Drink alot of water be active and eat healy small portions 3-5 times a day. If you need a extra boost check out the following site ; http://applepatchdiet.com/wk13936......

Answer 6

It's not possible to loose that amount safely in that amount of time and have any hope of keeping the weight off. You really don't need to loose that much weight, but shoot for a goal of about 1 pound a week for long term weight loss. Also, I don't know what your current calorie intake is, but if you cut it too drastically (700 is very low), you're body may go into starvation mode, slowing your metabolism down, and causing you not to loose the weight you would if you ate a bit more.

Answer 7

you're 5 feet tall and one hundred thirty lbs and you opt to lose 21 lbs? i'm surprisingly puzzled. additionally, in basic terms seven hundred energy an afternoon is very restritive. particular you will lose the 21 lbs even nevertheless it is going to likely be muscular tissues and fat. even nevertheless i'm assuming you have not have been given any muscular tissues on you what so ever. With that extreme for a calorie limit you lose the burden in approximately 4-5 weeks. you will essentailly be ravenous your self.

Answer 8

Wake up early- run in the morning before you eat breakfast. From here, eat 6 small meals a day, starting with breakfast right after you do your cardio. You probably know the only formula to losing weight is to burn more calories that you intake. But eating 6 small meals a day spaced out between 2-3 hours each will help alot in keeping your metabolism going. Think of your first meal as some fuel to jumpstart your metabolism, after about 3 hours eat a little more to keep your metabolism going.

Running right after you wake up is ideal because your body is more likely to burn fat and not your muscle.

Also drinking COLD water throughout the day burns alot of calories as well. Your body uses energy to warm it up

Answer 9

Depriving your body of calories it needs doesnt always help. Your metabolism can slow down because you are starving it. How in the world did you come up with that number? You probably wont loose that much that quick cause you don't really have that much to loose. If you go ahead and try this, it could make you sick and too weak to work. But... yes it is possible.

Answer 10

You need to work out for 1 1/2 hour 4 times a week.

My sister is the same way...she is on the South Beach diet and she goes to the gym all the time...she is dropping the weight pretty quick. I'm not saying you don't need to lose weight, I'm just saying lose the weight until your okay with your body...dont get down to like 85lbs...Good Luck Girly hopefully it works!!
