Exactly what type of weight are you trying to lose and when is your prom? Based on how you’ve put it, the only methods to lose a lot of weight now are unhealthy. You have to eat a small meal every 2 or 3 hours to keep your metabolism up so fasting takes a while and when you do finally eat again, you’ll gain the weight back and maybe even more. Try starting to do cardio like swimming dancing, cycling, walking, jogging, running, etc. Look up the type of exercise you’ll do and see how much you’ll burn and you also have to figure out your resting heart rate (just google resting heart rate calculator). 3,500 calories = a pound so if you are short of the amount you burned during your workout+ resting hear rate by 500 calories, you will burn a pound per week.

If you want to lose weight, you need to two things: eat less and exercise more. Weight gain happens when you create a calorie surplus (eat more than you burn). Your body takes the excess calories and converts them to fat which get stored around your stomach, arms and thighs. The longer you remain in a calorie surplus, the more weight you’ll gain. To lose that weight, you need to do the opposite. You need to create a calorie deficit (start eating less than you burn).

Your first step is to figure out how many calories you burn on a daily basis. Use a calorie calculator – http://calorieneedscalculator.com The number you get from this tool is what your body burns on a daily basis. To lose weight, simply eat less. It sounds a lot easier than it is but making small changes helps you adjust to a new lifestyle. Don’t think of this as a diet, think of it as a new life. Instead of eating foods high in sugars, white flour and saturated fat, go with fruits, vegetables, 100% whole grains, fish, lean meats, nuts and beans. In addition to eating less, you also need to exercise more. Start off at 1-2 times per week and work your way up to 3-5 times per week.

Don’t make all of these changes at once or you won’t be able to properly adjust to them. Generally, eating healthier foods will decrease your calorie intake. Compare a doughnut to an apple and you’ll see that healthy foods are lower in calories.

Okay well I don’t know you’re age, height and weight, but let’s say you’re a 5’7 woman, weighing about 150lbs, and you have a BMR of 1900 calories. Your BMR is how much you burn doing nothing, and can vary greatly with your age, sex, height, weight, metabolism, muscle mass, etc, but 1900 is probably pretty average. So in order to to maintain your weight, you need to eat 1900 calories every day, and you will technically end your day with 0 calories.

Burn 1900 automatically, eat 1900, and you have 0, which would make your weight stay the same.
If you have a bmr of 2000, then you’d burn 2000 and eat 2000 to maintain your weight.

To lose weight, you want to be in the negative zone. When you eat 1300 calories, you’re all ready in the negative zone, because you burn 1900, and only eat 1300, which leaves you with a total of -600 calories.

(1300) – (1900) = (-600)

Since 3500 calories = 1 lb, by eating (-600) calories a day, in one week you’d burn 1.2 lbs.

(-600 calories) x (7 days) = (-4200 calories burned a week) = (1.2lbs)
_____

Now, if you were to burn another 1300 calories a day, that would be

(-600) – (1300) = (-1900 day)

in that case, in one week of having a grand total of negative 1900 calories, in one week you’d lost almost 4 lbs

(-1900) x (7 days) = (-13’300 calories)
(13’300 calories) divided by (3500 calories) = 3.8.
