Is it possible to lose 10 pounds in 1 week?

Answer 1

No its not, its best to lose about 2 pounds a week, try these healthy tips>>

if you want to weight 180 pounds, then eat 1800 calories - good balanced diet and exercise, drink water ( minimum daily requirements is 8 - 8oz glasses)

weight 165 pounds - 1650 calories ;
weight 160 pounds - 1600 calories ;

our bodies need a good balance of a variety of foods, a good 7 grain bread ; nuts ; raisins ; fruits ; cereals - the kinds that are not full of sugars ; green veggies ; yellow veggies ; beans / legumes ; peanut butter - a good one that's not full of sugar ; as for meats - chicken ; fish - salmon is best - tuna is also good ; beef - which has less than 20% fat content ; you can spice foods up with seasonings and make them taste better, but be very careful of how much salt you eat - always less than 3000 mg daily , if you average it to 1,000 mg per meal that would be best. And don't forget to drink your water, the water helps the body flush all the bad stuff from our system and keeps the body / organs functioning properly.

no soda pop / cokes ; coffee ; tea - unless its herbal tea ; no beer / alcohol ; no chips / cookies / cakes / pies / candy's ;

get at least 30 minutes of walking in a day - a good fast walk rather than a slow one, the average speed of a good fast walk is 4 miles an hour - so 2 miles in half an hour , but if you are not used to walking fast it will take your body time to get used to it and get that fast, and don't over do it, you don't want to pass out - set a pace, if you need to stop and take a 5 minute rest.

walking is the absolute best exercise for our bodies!

Answer 2

maybe not 10 lbs, but it's possible to lose more than 2 or 3 as everyone else is saying is the most possible. I've been eating healthier and exercising, and drinking lots of water for exactly a week now and I've lost 6.5 lbs. It's only unhealthy if you go back to the old way of life, then you'll gain it all back. If you keep with it for the long run, it's perfectly healthy.

Answer 3

in a word... YES.

at the beginning of a diet, that is okay. but chances are, it will be some fat weight and some water weight, but it will still show on the scale.

to lose 10 lbs in one week...eat 1200 cals (girls) to 1500 cals (guys) per day--LEAN protein (white meats like turkey, chicken, etc; fish are excellent choices too!),UNsaturated fats (keep saturated fat consumption LOW and AVOID trans fats as they are bad for your heart, and weight); and COMPLEX carbohydrates (whole grains); + VEGGIES and FRUIT (yes you knew it was coming, but they ARE IMPORTANT for fiber and antioxidants).

Eat 3 meals a day w/the above guidelines, + a couple snacks like reduced fat cheese (1 oz) or a handful of nuts.

EXERCISE! This will burn lots of calories and propel your weight loss. Walking, jogging, running, biking, rollerblading, playing tennis, soccer, basketball, or anything else active is great--just get moving for 30 to 60 minutes each day!

WRITE DOWN EVERYTHING YOU EAT--you will be more aware of what you are consuming and will be less likely to break your diet to lose the 10 lbs quickly.

HOWEVER..after a week or two if you wanna keep losing weight--2 lbs a week is healthy so do not try to exceed that.

GOOD LUCK! :)
