Is it at all posible to lose fat in 10 days?

Question

obviously i know it wont be a massive change, and if i lose weight in 10 days ill probably put it back on- but is it at ALL possible to lose weight (fat, not water weight) Or should i not even bother trying? Lol i never thought i'd ask one of these questions! I'm 5'7 and 125- how much could i be?

i'm 15 and i've got non uniform day in 10 days. NO its not to impress boys- im at a girls school, but people have always told me i have a "perfect" figure and i feel under a lot of pressure to meet the expectations- plus with an eating disorder history i guess this isnt REALLY the thing i should be doing...

Answer 1

yes it is possible, but it is dangerous and can make you very ill.

Answer 2

If you want to maintain weight or lose weight it's far better to stick with a truly healthy and sustainable diet. That's healthy - not the popular (low-fat) diets. I mean a natural diet high in natural, unprocessed essential macronutrients such as fats, proteins, and low in carbohydrates. Using such a natural diet you won' t experience hunger at all (!) and, what is more important, gain health at the same time. It's a sustainable dietary regimen and that's the best possible permanent diet for weight management as well as maintaining robust health. For your own good, please don't believe the dietary delusions you can read everywhere in the popular media - the "common wisdom" low-fat portion-control mantra has been scientifically disproven long ago. The best ratio for fats/proteins/carbs is something like 60/30/10, no matter what you may have heard elsewhere. Good and healthy fats are butter, coconut oil and other tropical oils, omega-3 oils from olives, and fish oils, preferably cod liver oil. Healthy and essential proteins should come mainly from fresh fish, meats, eggs, cheese and the like. Carbohydrates should be minimized as much as possible and must be unprocessed, coming mainly from green leafy vegetables, berries, nuts and seeds. Minimize sweet fruits. Avoid sugar at all costs in all its (many) forms as it is pure poison.

Answer 3

You did not gain it in ten days. You can loose some fat in ten days, but only a limited amount. You are 5'7" and 125, that is not overweight. My suggestion would be to add an exercise program. You can loose weight in ten days by running, rowing or jumping rope, but most of the weight that you loose will be water. Fat usually takes more time to reduce since you have to do some kind of exercise that will burn fat. The body will only burn fat after it has burned available sugar and starts to convert fat to sugar for the cells to use as energy.

Answer 4

WHY ARE YOU TRYING TO LOSE WEIGHT!

You are 5'7 and weigh 125, you are underweight as it is. This is the weight of the average 5'3 person. You don't need to lose weight, you just need to tone up your muscles, you're skinny enough. Try doing lunges and squats with hand and ankle weights, after a week or two you will start to notice subtle changes. Do toe lifts on a step with ankle weights and your calves will pop, this is also great for the rest of your lower back end.

Answer 5

it's highly unlikely. for most it takes a good 3-4 weeks on a balanced diet with regular exercise before there is measurable fat loss. the faster the loss of "weight" on the scale the higher the percentage of water and muscle it will be.

the body can only utilize so much stored fats as energy in a 24 hr period regardless of how much exercise is performed or how perfect the diet may be. this is the way that human biology works and not diet or exercise program will change this.

Answer 6

Yes it is possible but really losing weight should be done over a much longer period.

If you are fat and want to get thinner rapidly you need to follow a diet that provides 500 to 1,000 kilocalories less than your energy requirements to make your bod meet your dietary energy deficit by using up some of that grotesque spectacle sticking out of your middle, but you also need to eat stuff that makes you fart and need to visit the loo a lot.

A high fibre diet is thus best - for example beans on toast using low calory bread at breakfast with two apples, but then eat nothing for rest of day, and round about midday you will hear a satisfying plopping noise underneath you when you are seated thereon as your fat comes out of your ....

About 0.5 kilograms of your body fat supplies about 3,500 kilocalories. So a daily deficit of 1,000 kilocalories will mean a loss of approximately 1 kilogram of your weight in a week and loss of water during the first week will further increase your loss of weight. But it is essential you do also take on more exercise, so causing your body to burn the extra calories and most importantly by also increasing your metabolic rate.

Be aware that such a diet can indeed cause a pleasingly perceptible weight loss within such a short period. But in almost cases you will quickly regain that weight immediately you revert to your previous eating habits and previous lazier lifestyle. If you want to keep your weight down permanently you must keep it up for months otherwise you are wastingf your efforts.

Be also aware that if you do suddenly cut back very severely on how much you eat and drink daily, some people's resistance to infections can fall dangerously while others are much less affected.

So you may or may not be much more exposed to catching something like flu. Basicaly, if after starting such a very strict diet you feel extremely unwell stop it immediately before it does you serious harm. But if you feel OK apart from feeling bloody hungry you are doing A OK and stick at it. Good luck, mate.

Answer 7

The only way to truly lose fat and keep it off is by reducing the amount of carbohydrates you eat AND to exersize (American spelling).
Exersize burns fat. Exersize transform fat into muscle cells. Once you make the transformation, keeping your body lean requires ongoing exersize and reduced carbohydrate intake, while increasing protein intake to help generate the energy needed to feed muscle cells. By increasing muscle cell energy, you will enable your body to burn more fat.
1. Lower carbohydrate intake.
2. Increase protein intake.
3. Exersize.
By doing this, once you create muscle cells, you will not gain the fat back as long as you keep your carbohydrates down and the protein up.

You can lose weight in 10 days, but not much by that time. In 6 months you can lose a lot of weight.

Answer 8

yes, but healthfully you may only lose about a pound. Any more than a pound or two would be classified as crash dieting or overexercise...it's never good to try and rapidly lose weight because your body will always gain it back..and probably more with it. The best thing you can do is go about it nice and agonizingly slow...watching what you eat and exercising a good amount. you will def see results in like a month...it sucks it can't be sooner but hey, whatcha gon do

Answer 9

It is possible to loose two pounds of fat per week. After that, it is all water weight. I would suggest, if you're going for a visual difference, to purchase a slimming outfit, or get some spray on tanning contouring done (where they shade your abs to make you look thinner - remarkable, really). Spanks are another glourious invention that will make you appear a dress size smaller.

Answer 10

5'7" and 125 pounds? You don't need to lose a single ounce. Someone who's 5'4" should weigh around 130 depending on their body type and muscle tone.

If you want to do something, work out and tone up your muscles. That's way hotter than just being skinny.

Answer 11

The problem with crash diets is that what you lose is muscle, what you put on again is fat. Diet and exercise. If it's a dress you want to get into for Christmas, go for it, but you'll be back where you started before Lent sets in!
