Recently i've been informed that i'm going to travel to the beach. That will happend in 1 month exactly, and well... anxiety has arrived! long time without eating properly or doing any physical trainnig... well, my body isn't exactly what you would like to see in a tiny bathing suit. So i would love you give me some good diets to reduce inches and cellulitis.
Since today i'm going to the gym, so all i need is a diet that helps me.

I've seen that soy lecithin pills are awesome to loose fat, but as any pill it might have secondary effects, so if any of you have ever used it, how did it go? should i use it, and in wich way? how many times? Any information will be really usefull at this moment,

Thank you (:

    Soy lecithin pills will not make you lose fat.

    Those pills will not make you lose fat. No pill will. The only way to lose fat is to burn more than you eat. Simple.

    Go to the gym... lift weights.. eat properly... fill your diet with lean proteins, veggies, fruits, etc.

    Find a bathing suit that makes you feel good. Confidence will do a lot more for your look than losing a few lbs will. And don't forget, people won't be focusing on you while you are at the beach.

    No pill makes you lose fat. Also, soy is estrogenic. Stay away from all that crap.

    Get control over your food intake and begin an exercise program 3-5/week. Continue this process and eat in a caloric deficit and you'll eventually lose fat.

    Get the idea of pills and shortcuts out of your head and instead focus on executing your plan.

    If you have cellulitis, you need to see a doctor and get some antibiotics. Losing weight won't make it any better.:noway:

    There are no quick fixes. The only dramatic thing you can do in a month is lose some water weight, but even that depends on how much fat you currently have.

    Well. Some pills will. Bug they're illegal and dangerous ;)

    The dangers of soy have not been conclusively proven, to my knowledge.

    Can you point to any solid evidence that it is harmful?

    you are going to kind of get one sided info on here most all of us don't use diet pills or anything like that. because really if any of that stuff helps it is only short-term unlike changed eating habits and exercise.

    best of luck to you :)

    OP, I googled it for ya:

    http://www.vanderbilt.edu/AnS/psychology/health_psychology/LECITHIN_SUPPLEMENT.htm

    I do like the side effect of "fishy" body odor :)

    Good luck. I hope you decide to take the slow-but-tested approach to fat loss of eating slightly below maintenance calories and exercising.

    This!

    Also 1 month ain't very long to get a beach body, sorry.

    Clean diet and exercise

    Don't use any pills.......

    No 1. Go shopping and buy lots of healthy food, ie veggies, fruit, and lots of protein
    No 2. Exercise? If not, cut back
    No 3. Drink lots of water.........!!!
