Well, wouldn't you like to know... :p
lol
Okay, I used to be 190 lbs. I was 12 and not very tall.
I started eating only 500 calories a day and I would follow my own little workout routine which consisted of six laps around my house, no less than 350 situps, 100 squats, and various other exercises that now I have no idea why I did.
I lost 5 lbs. a week until I got to 100 lbs.
What I'm saying is that if you want to lose 10 lbs in that amount of time you'll have to put your body through hell.
Now, I would reccomend a diet high in fiber (thats key), low in calories (cause calorie control is 89.9% of your weight loss right there), and non-fat.
And just add some moderate intensity exercise in your daily routine, and you'll be fine :)

It would be hard and unsafe. You would have to restrict calories so much that your metabolism will slow and stop weight loss. Aiming to lose 1-2 lbs a week is sensible.
It takes about a 3500 calorie change per pound. For 10 pounds that means 35,000 calories less food or increased exercise; 17,500 per week, 2500 per day to do it in 2 weeks
If you are now eating about 2000 cal/day, to lose safely you would need to change to 1200 cal/day and add 1700 calories of exercise. That would be about 5-8 hours of extral physical activity per day depending on the activity.
Use the calculator below to see how many calories various activities burn.

why do you need to lose it in 2 weeks? its hard to lose a set amount in a set amount of time.. but if you really need to, try getting a better diet, cut out the junk and do more cardiovascular exercises such as running, jogging, etc.
