OK, I'm a stress eater and obviously I've been extra stressed because of the wedding and a lot of work stuff. I stepped on the scale this morning, and it was not pretty. I only have 10 days left
How can I lose a few pounds quickly? I don't want to do anything drastic (pills), but I'd love a low carb or low fat plan for the next few days!
Anyone? Help me!

Re: Diet Help!
ok don't stress! Seriously I would say a good way to slim down is definitely to either do the no carb thing.. or like doing only carbs earlier in the day..
Eat salads for lunch.. and either lean meat and lots of veggies for dinner.. drink a TON of water.. so you keep flushing out your system.. Also I don't know if your into yoga, but I go to hot yoga and you literally come out feeling like 3 pounds skinnier- its definitely 3 pounds of water weight lost.. but a few session could really help out!!
GOOD LUCK! Or you can try that 3 day diet ..look it up online.. and maybe do it 2 times before the wedding.

Re: Diet Help!
Drink lots and lots of water and minimize your carb intake. Any carbs you do have should be whole grain, no whites, no sugars. Even fruit has natural sugars in it so have it sparingly. I don't recommend doing it long term, but for 10 days it will be fine. Also, try not to eat carbs with dinner, and if you do, make sure they are carbs from veggies not bread, pasta, rice, etc. For example, for dinner, have grilled chicken or fish, veggies and if you really want a carb, a half of a sweet potato would be best. HTH!

Re: Diet Help!
For a quick trim down I would eliminate all carbs (including fruit and whole grains), dairy and salt.
You will lose water weight and definitely feel less bloated.
Of course its not healthy to eat like this all the time, but for a short time it will be ok!

Re: Diet Help!
Ive been trying to lose a few also and so far its really working and fast. Heres what Im doing; 1) I am drinking about 10-15 glasses of water a day - I know that seems like a lot but it keeps me full and keeps your system moving (also my skin looks great 2) Extremely low carbs! And low dairy. Im eating mostly fruits, veggies and protein. For example, i might have fruit salad for breakfast, a salad with chicken and barely any dressing for lunch and steamed veggies with some protein for dinner. Snacks are fruit or rice cakes. 3) I am working out hard every single day! And on top of that I have been taking my dog for long walks after dinner everyday.
Good luck!!!

Re: Diet Help!
i agree with most of the girls...for a quick fix...i would limit carbs to only in the morning and try your hardest to eliminate salt!
maybe try doing 2 workouts a day and go to a steam room or do that hot yoga suggestion to lose some water weight! hope you get results

Re: Diet Help!
carbs in the morning
salad for lunch
a small portion of whatever you eat for dinner
fruits & veggies and nuts for snacks
its hard esp at first but if you prepare your snacks and have them ready for whenever you get hungry you'll stay full and wont eat something you regret later
