want to loose inches fast

Yes I know a long term weightloss plan is the best, and this is what I have been following, and sucessfully lost almost 50kilos now. BUT....
next weekend I have an important event. I have some black pants I wanted to wear.
see now, my dilemma is, they are a bit snug still. I want to loose some inches before next saturday.
yes I could just go buy more pants, but the shops are 4 hours away. mail order wont get here on time.
I cant borrow from friends, as none are my size.
As I am loosing weight I have only a few clothes in each size, and especially dressy pants, which I wear once in a blue moon, I have only one pair in each size. the next size up that I have its too big and they fall down. not a good look.
so anyway, whats the best way to loose cms/inches off my hips and waist in one week. I guess cutting down salt, drinking lots of water, but would upping my exercise be of any instant success???

I have heard of people doing cleanses but I don't know much about them...sorry.
Good Luck0 -
Cut out everything but what is essential to the body and the pounds should come off quick, along with some water weight. Protein, essential fatty acids, and water. Maybe a multivitamin.0

protein shakes and more protein shakes and water and tons of cardio!0

Hmm, it's hard to lose inches in a target area without losing overall, which takes time. I know you know this already. To get there in a week, perhaps a body shaper garment might help along with some of the food/exercise advice from others here?0

You could try a body wrap, they are only a short term fix but could do the trick for the day. I've heard that getting plenty of sleep is a must for losing belly fat as it is linked to the body releasing a beneficial hormone. The other thing I would try would be some body shaping underwear!
Have a good time.0
