    I want to for spring break. But it's not a necessity. I guess I had big dreams lol. I've already lost a good amount and down enough to where I feel comfortbale wearing a bikini, I just want my stomach to be a bit more flat.
    When you lose weight, your body decides where it will come off.
    The only way to directly affect how your abdomen looks is to tone the underlying muscles.
    Do core exercises (all the way around, plus rotation), and be patient.

    Your best bet is going to be the master cleanse (lemonade diet). You'll lose super fast but it will mostly be water weight and it will come back (or at least some of it).

    nobody ever needs to cleanse

    why do you say nobody needs to cleanse? I don't understand what you mean, I have used cleanses before & feel so much better after doing so. Cleansing for weightloss is not neccesarily a good plan but to feel better it sure helps

    because cleanses are bunk.

    Unless you are reccing soap or body wash options. That kind of cleansing is good.

    the only thing is cleanses is your wallet. They are a marketing scam.

    Spanx...other than that nothing really. You might get a pound or two but that is about all. Just go and enjoy your spring break.

    Take it slow. Losing that much weight so fast is dangerous, and the likelihood that you'll gain it back is very high. Eat healthy and exercise and you will see results :)

    Disregard the master cleanse....stuff. It's silly.

    I think that would be a tall order even for a morbidly obese individual.

    Short of cutting off a limb, you're out of luck. You didn't gain it in 10 days, you physically can't lose it in 10 days.

    You can LOOK like you weigh less by drinking more water and eating less sodium for the next 10 days. It will just be water weight, but you'll look less bloated. And spanx can help you appear much thinner for a specific event.

    Start eating healthy and losing the weight for real, then next time you have a big event coming up you won't feel panicked and "need" to lose a lb a day.

    I doubt you'll lose 10 pounds, but in case you're running into any bloating, I'd say really go hard on the water and go light on the sodium. It will help de-puff all over and that should help if any extra in the belly area is bloating. (Also, if you're not regular, get that way with all the right food.) I second the good posture as well. Standing tall with your shoulders back can add the appearance of cup sizes to your boobs and minimize the appearance of weight on your tummy. You might drop a pound in water weight, if you have it to lose, but since you say you've been losing weight for a bit, I'd say just flaunt the 10 you've lost already and the confidence will make up for anything else you want to lose.

    You'll gain it back quick. Slow and steady wins the race.
