Low carb and lifting weights is the best. If you are already doing that change your protocol. Say you lift real heavy with low volume. Go lighter and do more sets for a while. That worked for me.\nHigh intensity interval training is a great fat burner. Do a search on it.

If you are serious about losing weight, the calories\nin the food you eat should be less than the\nenergy you use. You will have to increase your \nmetabolic rate now, and plan your diet carefully.\nFormulate your own weight loss plan and you will \nlose weight faster.

There is no such thing as a "good" diet to lose weight fast. Any diet that tells you you can lose weight fast is both unhealthy for you and you will probably gain the weight back (and more) when you finish it. \n\nA better plan is a life style change. Start eating healthy and exercise. You won't lose it fast, but once you get to where you want, you can continue on and should not gain it back. You should set a goal of losing 1 to 2 lbs a week.

Be VERY careful when trying to lose weight fast.  It is terribly bad for you to lose any more than 4 lbs a week.\n\nTo lose weight, you must exercise a LOT!  In addition, you should eat more than 3 times a day, but only tiny portions.  Maybe a half a fruit and some nuts.  Stay away from high fat items like mayonaise, cheese and fatty meats.  Eat fish, lean chicken or turkey, and PLENTY of vegetables.\n\nDon't forget to exercise every day.  Don't overdo it or you will burn yourslef out.

Depends on how many calories you're burning. However, you can't lose FAST and keep it off. You didn't put it on fast. To be healthy, you should not lose more than 3-4 lbs a week. If you start some resistance training, you'll see body changes much faster even though the numbers on the scale don't drop fast.

I don't know if you can lose that much weight in that short of time, but I really don't think its healthy if you do.  I would expect 60-90 lbs.  Be your own trainer and nutritionist, the basic rules to losing weight are no soda, no fast food, lots of chicken, fish, fresh (not canned that’s bad) fruits and vegies, whole wheat stuff, yogurt. Not so many cakes and donuts and cookies. Basic common sense for eating, you just need to enforce it. Get all the bad stuff out of the house right away, just toss it or give it away while your still motivated. No alcohol and no smoking  if that applies. Lots of water, 3-4 liters a day, not all at once, but spread it out. Its really easy to down a liter or two while your watching tv or on the computer. Also drink some after you eat the bigger meals of the day, it helps your body pick out the nutrients in food when your food is more spread apart.  Don’t think that sports drinks can replace water, the only time you need to drink them right after a workout, besides that just stick with water. These rules may be hard to adapt to at first so start with cutting out the things you know you can live without.  Then work from there.  Remember these are  perfect eating habits, it can take you a while to work into it.  If you know you can’t live without your one treat a day, don’t fight it by trying to eat something else, just eat it and make sure that’s the only one you cheat on a day.  Otherwise you’ll get depressed and quit.  Another important point is getting the right amount of sleep every night.  You need 8-9 hours of sleep each night for your body to function correctly.  This is an important factor of losing weight.  Set up a routine for yourself and go to bed at about the same time each night.  \nAs for exercise, lots of cardio. Find something you like. If you have never exercised much before, start with walking 30 minutes a day at a brisk pace. Move on to different terrains that include hills and increase the time spent. After a week or two, try jogging the route. No matter what find an activity you enjoy. Walking to jogging is just an example, try hiking, rollerblading, biking. Once you get into a regular routine, if your not happy with the level of difficulty, try signing up with a gym. Spinning, pilates or kickboxing classes are great. It will also introduce you to working with weights. Talk to a trainer for instruction before using any weights. A cheap investment is a balance ball, it works you stomach while your just sitting on it, like at your computer and its great for posture. There are hundreds of exercises you can use it for for your entire body. I can give you some ideas if you want, just email me, but start with these steps, once you get your endurance up you can do more with speed.

Also check out the website for the tv show The Biggest Loser on NBC.  There are many, many helpful facts on there.

That's gonna be. . .tough. But if you want to lose weight quickly, you might think about trying this book called "The Movie Star Diet" by Steve Simmons. It helped me lose thirty pounds in 2 1/2 months when I didn't think anything would work. My goal to begin with was only 20 lbs! It has a really easy plan to follow and an excellent workout as well.

Be careful about losing weight rapidly.  Slow, steady weight loss is more likely to last than dramatic weight changes. Healthy plans aim for a loss of no more than ½ to 2 pounds per week (although, the more you weight, the more you'll lose initially - also men tend to lose quicker than females). If you lose weight quickly, you'll lose muscle, bone, and water instead of the fat you want to leave behind. \n\nAccording to the National Institutes of Health (NIH), the most successful weight-loss strategies include calorie reduction combined with increased physical activity and behavior-modification therapy designed to improve eating and exercise habits. \n\nWeight Watchers is a good program that encompasses all areas of your life -- and you can still eat your favorite food...you're not restricted to certain food groups (like Atkin's)...and you get rewarded for exercise.  Look into it...

You definitely don't want to do it fast.  1 to 2 pounds per week is recommended by a doctor.  If you lose more than that, you are prone to problems, and also, what many people don't know is that, if you lose weight too quickly, it actually ages you.  I know a guy who dropped like 30 pounds in a month, and he looks terrible.  He aged like 20 years.  Do it the right way.  You'll feel better too.

It really depends on what you mean by "fast" because the only way to lose weight really fast is to simply not eat, which is extremely not recommended and unhealthy. Instead, you must change your lifestyle and diet. First, start eating MORE. YES MORE!! More times a day that is. Instead of having 3 large meals, break it up into 4-5 smaller meals a day. Also, if you work keep a pack of almonds at your desk and munch onthose every now and then if hunger kicks in. Also, what you eat is extremely important as well. Try to eat alot of whole grain foods, veggies, lean meats and try to avoid fried foods in bad oils like vegatable and corn oil. Lastly, start to exercise! Start off slow, if you're a newbie, do a 30 minute walk, 15 min jog, maybe do some weights. Once you adapt to this new lifestyle, you'll be more than on your way to lose weight, look good, and most of all, FEEL GOOD!!

about 14 lbs for me. 7 lbs in a week is going too fast. you should aim for 2 to 4 lbs a week. remember, the faster you lose, the easier and faster you gain it back too.

Do what your trainer says. Fast weight loss IS NOT GOOD FOR YOUR BODY, and see a nutritionist too.

losing that much weight in a week is NOT healthy. \n\nbut for starters, cut out ALL the junk food. eat protein & veggies and skip the carbs (pasta, potatoes, bread) and fatty foods. that should help a little bit!!

self-control and excercise. determination and patience are key. you should not force yourself to lose loads of weight in a very short amount of time... it all depends on your body's metabolism, and it's usually activity that determines it.\n\nalso, i've learned that you lose more weight when you don't worry yourself about it much. remember that crash diets and eating disorders are not the best ways to go.\n\nlove yourself the way you are. try to improve, but never let yourself reach the point of compromising your well-being. when you're happy in your own skin, it will show through.

You can try something like south beach diet. You will definitely lose weight. I once lost 8 pounds in a week. Most of it is water so you need to eat healthy and exercise to keep it off. Its not good to lose weight by crash diets.

You need to go on the Grapefruit Diet or Mayo Clinic Diet.  Just type either name in "search" on the Internet and you will get the menu of foods to eat that work together and how to utilize the diet. I lost 60lbs on it in about 10 mos. and when others saw how much I lost they went on it and lost.  I went from a size 22-24 to a size 8 and juniors 11.  I was 44 when I went on it. I didn't start exercising until I had been on it for about 8.5 mos. I guess.  and that was only because I had lost so much weight I felt like exercising.  You stay on the diet 12 days and then for 2 days you eat everything and anything you want.  It is great.  You eat 3 meals a day of the right combination of foods and you just lose.  And the foods are things you already buy already probably.  And nothing expensive.  It says no caffiene drinks but I still did my Diet Dr Peppers with no problem.  Good luck...the diet does work!
