If you want to lose weight quickly, the first thing you need recognize is that you probably won’t lose weight as quickly as you’d want. For some, losing two pounds every week is quick. Unless you’re really overweight, losing more than 2 pounds each week is typically not considered healthy. If you have 15 pounds to lose and want to drop it all in two weeks, you’ll have to modify your thinking or you’ll be extremely dissatisfied, or you’ll turn to a really unhealthy manner of weight reduction and risk getting yourself sick.
However, if you need to lose weight rapidly over a few days or a week, for example, to fit into a dress for the weekend, and you recognize that if you drop pounds quickly, you’ll likely put them back on when the weekend is gone, there are certain things you can do right immediately.
When you lose weight quickly, you are losing water weight rather than true fat. So long as you understand that your speedy weight loss is a transient phenomenon that can be quickly reversed and you don’t jeopardize your health in the process, you should be delighted with the results.
First, quit consuming anything that contains calories. That alone can help you lose weight quickly. No alcoholic beverages, no sugar in your coffee, no soda other than diet soda, and no calorie-containing fruit juice or flavored waters. This step alone can save you hundreds of calories every day. Replace those sugary drinks with water. Drinking 64 oz of water at one sitting is not only harmful, but it should be done gradually over the day.
If you truly want to lose weight quickly, you can severely reduce your calorie intake. While 1200 calories is barely above a starvation diet, limiting yourself to that or less for a short period of time, such as a few days, would not hurt you. We’ve all experienced days when we were sick with the flu or just didn’t feel well and ate very little. It happens naturally from time to time, so doing it on purpose for a short period of time won’t damage you either; just don’t decide to starve yourself as a long-term weight loss approach.
Stick to meals that are easy to digest, such as vegetable soup with low oil. Soup can help you feel more full when eating so little food and alleviate the rumbling stomach that will undoubtedly occur at least a few times if you dramatically reduce your calorie intake. For the greatest effects, drink seasoned broth or clear or tomato-based vegetable soups.
Avoid potatoes and starchy vegetables such as maize and peas. Broccoli, lettuce, spinach, celery, and other greens are all good choices. Strawberries and oranges might assist with your sweet craving. Also, take a multivitamin to ensure that you obtain enough nutrients while losing weight quickly.
Each of these suggestions can assist you in losing weight quickly. However, you should consult with your own physician to ensure that you are physically well enough to lose weight quickly.
