Right well i would start my diet tomorrow but i cant really because the next night i am going for a meal and am going for a chinease and will just eat eat eat and then the diet will mess up but im going to start it on sunday. That will leave me with four days until a big gathering and i want to drop five pounds by then. There are some diets where you can lose five pounds in two days but i know i wouldnt stick to it. Have u got any idea how i can blast of 5 lbs in four days? Please let me know. Im considering not eating at all because when i was ill last winter i couldnt eat anything for two days and i lost seven pounds. I dont want it to come to this so please have you got an alternative? Thanks

Hi, I'm actually sick right now and I can't eat anything, but I'm sick! You may be dissapointed but its unhealthy to lose more than 2 pounds in less than a week. If you do find yourself losing a lot of weight its "water loss" not "fat loss", and that's unhealthy and you'll gain it right back. I just thought that you should no this. If you try to starve yourself your body will actually slow your motabolism down and it will be hard to lose a lot. But, if you find a good and healthy diet make sure you keep to it.

Good Luck,
Kori

you shouldnt eat less then 1200 caloires a day for an extended period of time. but for 5 days, i think it would be safe to eat 1000 or so. also, work out every day, at least an hour or so, and you might just nock out a few pounds. but dont starve yourself or anything!

It is impossible to lose 5 pounds in 4 days. That is less than a week! That is really unhealthy. U could probably lose only 1 lb in 4 days! *jenna*
