There is no such thing as a safe quick weight loss.  Diets and diet pills don't work they just act on the pituitary gland and make the body lose water (hence weight).  It's good that you exercise as anything which raises your pulse and makes you sweat is good. It may also be that you're not having enough calories as the body goes into "famine" mode if it doesn't get enough norishment and stores anything it does get as fat, rather than glucose.  Every cell in your body respires and this uses energy, ie, food.  Without enough energy, your metabolism slows and food is stored as fat.  Incidentally, who says you need to lose weight and do you really need to lose the weight? The only thing guaranteed to get a body healthy (note I don't say "lose weight") is to exercise and eat a healthy, balanced, wide variety of foods plus the occasional treat in moderation (this stops any food becoming "naughty" and therefore craved). Please note that body muscle mass weighs four times more than body fat because the fibres are so much closer together. Some fat is important on the body though as it helps regulate hormonal levels in the body and prevents osteoporosis and other bone wasting diseases in later life.  Some fat is important on women as too little can cause periods to stop and fertility problems. Women are designed differently to men and a totally flat stomach and no hips isn't healthy on a woman.  The question to ask yourself is - do your clothes fit better and how do you look in a mirror - not how much do you weigh. If you think you look untoned, then incorporate some light weights (low weight, high repetitions) into your regime. Hope this helps.

how tall are you?  should you weigh 160-170lbs?  That's alot of weight to lose in less than 2 months.  You better go on a very strict diet, no more than 500cal/day, drink loads of water, and do cardio work out for a minimum of 4 hours a day, you have to burn that flab off if you want to lose that much that fast.  Do a couple hours of light weights too.  You will have to burn about 4 times your daily intake, at least.

My advice- Buy a bigger bikini!  A  Vacation should be fun, don't torture yourself! Losing weight fast is never a safe option, instead- be happy with how you look now, and enjoy your time there!

You will catch alot of grief over this, but to seriously lose weight fast you have to simply quit eating. Maybe one meal a day. No, you will not die. No, it isnt the healthiest way to lose weight. But why wait 3 months to lose 30 pounds when you can do it in 1? When you do have to eat, eat the minimal carbs. I drank basically coffee and water. Screw what others say. If you arent happy with the way you look, fix it. Your opinion is the only one that matters.

Eat several (5-6) small meals a day...your body will burn calories faster and build your metabolism in a short period of time.\n(eat about every 2 hours)\nThe first 8-10 pounds you shed is water.\nMeal suggestions:\n1st: piece of fruit\n2nd: string cheese, summer sausage, cottage cheese/yogurt\n3rd: bowl of cereal\n4th: soup/sandwich\n5th: a good dinner-meat, potatoes/pasta/rice, veggie...your body needs carbs, protein and vitamins to stay healthy\n6th: salad/raw veggies\nDrink plenty of water \nDrink milk or juice/water with every meal (no soda pop)\nStay away from munchies, fried & fatty foods.\nCardio workouts are great to lose weight and build muscle, most people do not continue for an extended time and gain the weight back... doing daily simple exercise like walking/hiking...swimming and biking are low impact, playing games like basketball, baseball, volleyball will tone your body and you'll have fun doing it.\nYou will lose 5 lbs in less than 2 weeks.

deliver your full term twins.\nSeriously you dont want to lose weight fast because you can gain it back just as fast. Do it slowly by diet and exercise. Start out walking and increase your walking pace and time each week. Nutri-system is a satisfying healthy program to lose weight.

Eat less and exercise more.  It's not really quick, but it is effective.  Eat a healthy balanced diet with fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and lean meat.  For exercise, do both cardio exercise like walking, running, swimming, or whatever you like and resistance training like pilates or weight lifting.

I guess it depends on how fast you want to lose weight. Any work out routine will work if you do it. Lifting light weights from five to twenty pounds works. I did it six days a week 3o mins a day. Alternating upper and lower body and doing abs everyday. I kept my fat to 25 grams a day. If i had a craving i had one cup of low fat chocolate frozen yogurt as a treat. I went from a flabby size ten maybe to a 1/2 in two months. That fast. It works but it takes work. I ate a cup of cereal in the morning with a half a cup of milk one banana, glass of o.j .For lunch a salad and a piece of grilled chicken and a cup of broccoli. Afternoon snack 1 large pretzel. Dinner another salad, 1 cup of pasta with beans. I made sure i ate several small meals through out the day. If you do it this way you are guaranteed to lose weight. It works. I remember when i started working out this way and i was shocked at the results. My stomach looked awesome my arms legs everything was tight and toned. I could go to the mall and pick anything off the rack and it fit. It was the best thing i ever did.  That infomercial stuff is crap. Trust me. If you want to e-mail me i can tell you more about how i did it. It doesn't take long for results and the results last a long time. You won't feel deprived you'll have so much energy. The great thing about lifting light weights is sculpts the whole body. There is no pill or shake that can do that. Once you replace fat with muscle you burn more calories and can treat yourself to things you really want and even take a few weeks off from working out and not even gain any weight. I lost a total of twenty pounds which may not sound like much but you could take two women same height and same weight say 120 pounds one is muscle the other more body fat. The women with 120lbs of muscle will appear to be smaller because muscle takes up less space than fat but weights more.

Here are some tips:\n\n-Do moderate excercise everyday.\n-Try to avoid junk food\n-Find time to relax\n-Drink lots and lots of water, because this will wash out any toxins and fatty stuff that can accumalate and add weight\n-Do not oversleep; don't be slack and tired. Be as energetic as you can and this will help you lose weight and be positive about yourself\n-Smile as often as you can. Sure, it doesn't really help you lose weight; it just makes you look more nicer, and sometimes slimmer and prettier\n-Instead of 'dieting', eat as many fruits as you can till lunchtime, then eat veggies, bread and meat.\n-When you are seriously hungry, but it's not time for lunch or dinner, eat fruits. I know fruits can be repetitive and boring; but it can really help in cleaning your system, and because it contains high water content, it will reduce the amount of energy you eat, therefore less is converted to fat.

A good way to see results quickly would be to start doing some form of cardio (Elliptical Trainer, Treadmill, Stationary Bike etc.), or find an outdoor activity or sport that you like doing and can stick to, like mountain biking, road cycling, soccer, running..you get the picture. The key is to stay active. Cardio will help you get the weight off quickly because your creating a caloric deficiency in your body. \n\nIt is also important to start a weight training regimen to make your body more efficient at burning calories, plus, lifting weights and adding some muscle will help you keep the weight off in the long run. The more muscle you add on, the calories your body will burn on a daily basis. \n\nBuy some fitness magazines/books for workout ideas and tips. Set a realistic goals for yourself and stick to them. Maybe set up an appointment to see a trainer at your gym. \n\nGood Luck!

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.

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

Change your eating habits and your diet. Cut out all the junk foods, sodas and unhealthy snacks if you eat them. If you have a snack, make it a piece of fruit or yogurt, or jello. Make sure you have something for breakfast always, you could have  a salad with a piece of fruit or yogurt for lunch and then have dinner. Drink lots of water. Trim most of the fat off meats and remove the skin from poultry. Take your time when you eat so that your brain has time to signal when you are full. I'm not joking. If you eat in a hurry you are overeating and by the time you feel full you have actually eaten too much. If you don't walk a lot, go for a one half hour walk 3 times a week. In addition to walking, you can also exercise at home for 20 mins. several times a week, do this on the days you are not walking. The exercise does not have to be strenuous exercises (such as lifting weights), just firming and toning ones. Once you lose the weight you want to, don't go back to your old eating habits. Once you lose the weight you want to, you can modify your walking or exercise but don't give it up completely. If you go back to your old routine and diet because you think you have solved the problem, your weight will most likely return.
