Please listen to me: Last summer, I went through the exact thing, but during sleep away camp. I got in SO much trouble!! It sucked, because my doctor made me gain back all 15 lbs. I lost, and some. So now I’m losing it again, but by being smarter about the way I lose weight. Please do not go on an all-water diet, because not only will you cause yourself serious harm by not getting any nutrients (and possibly dying), you will gain back all weight as soon as you eat again (also, your stomach will have shrunken enough that your doc will freak out- trust me). So to lose weight fast smarter, try these tips:

-I keep my calories under 600 per day (this is sometimes called an “extreme-starvation” diet, because anything under 1000 calories is starvation).

-I drink 2 cups of water before and after every meal.

-Make a list of things to do when you feel the need to eat/are hungry and your already at or near your caloric limit (i.e. Reading, playing on the computer, exercising, etc.)

-Eat NO refined (processed) sugars. That is, don’t eat ANY candy, cookies, cakes, chocolates, sugary cereals (uncluding honey nut cheerios), etc. If you crave something sweet, make tea that is naturally sweet or eat a banana/grapes

-Something that helps me is keeping a journal every day. I write in it my planned meals for the day- 100 calories each, with room for 100 calories anywhere; my exercise goals (usually 30 minutes AT LEAST of cardio, strength, or yoga exercise); my current height, weight, measurements, and BMI (body mass index, search BMI on google if you don’t know what it is); and my goals for these (goal weight, measurements, and BMI).

Good luck! Also, check out my blog at becomeamodelin32days.blogspot.com for support!

John asks…

LOSING WEIGHT FAST!!!?

okay, I want to lose 15 pounds in less than a month.
I plan on: eating around 1200-1500 calories a day.
having a low carb diet for awhile then ease back once I get to my goal weight. (how low should a low carb be? I was thinking 90 carbs..?)
also running 5 times a week around 3+ miles a day

mornings, very early morning, I am going to start walking about 45 minutes before school to help shed the weight faster.

how long will it take to lose 15-20 pounds if I am 5’2 120lbs and 14?
no comment on my current weight I know I’m not obese!

weight loss cardiff answers:

Loosing weight fast is always an unhealthy thing.
There are many diets who tell you that you can loose a lot of weight in no time. And it is working, but you are doing no good to your body. And there’s also the Jojo-effect.
The best thing to lose and hold a healthy weight is healthy food, less sugar, lots of drinking water, and sports.
Diet has to begin in your head. And you already started to think about your nutrition. That’s an important step. It is too easy just to make a magazine-diet for 2-3 weeks and loose some weight. But it will come back soon again. If you are over-thinking your nutrition and activity, you will have a constantly good result. Isn’t that much better and healthier than a crash-diet ?

Laura asks…

What diet would help me lose weight fast?

Any special diets on how to lose weight fast?

weight loss cardiff answers:

Go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food
after 7 p.m. People achieve marvellous results with it. Depending on
your initial weight, you can drop upwards from 20 pounds a month. If
you don’t eat wheat then you don’t eat all those sticky, fatty goey
cakes, you don’t eat junk food, and you don’t eat biscuits. But your
diet is still balanced. It costs nothing, and you do not have to
calculate points or to buy special meals or plans.
