    Can't believe it hasn't been said yet...but take up crystal meth...problem solved! (assuming you don't mind losing a lot of teeth and having sores all over your body)

    How about the fail-safe coffee and cigarettes diet?
    I'm kidding. Please don't do this.

    Eat Kentucky Fried Chicken and take Alli pills while working the shake weight.

    There is really not a healthy way to lose that much weight in just 8 days. At best you might be able to lose about 2 lbs if you give yourself a 1000 calorie deficit every day...and that's quite a big deficit.

    If you're truly worried about fitting into your dress you could try to invest in some shapewear. There's stuff like Spanx that flattens your tummy. It's no weight loss miracle but nobody will be able to tell you're wearing it under your dress ;)

    Tooth loss shouldn't occur during the first 8 days tho.

    Why??? Is there some event?

    Yes we are celebrating my grandma's 100th birthday! It's a big deal and I want to feel comfortable in my dress.

    Oh come on! You wouldn't want to look better than Grandma on her 100th Birthday, would you? That's just rude!

    evil

    True story, but we actually did that 25 years ago. Today, the NCAA and pretty much every other regulatory entity (AAU, HSAAs, etc) have made rules against the practice....due to the final step happening every once in a while.

    I cant even begin to count how many times I dropped 6-10 pounds in an hour or so to make weight by an ounce, then go eat & drink water and be 15 pounds over before I walked out on the mat.

    Just sayin, as I've said before, I'd drink pee for a week if it meant fitting into THEE dress :)

    But really, you may have to drink pee to lose 10 lbs this week. You probably can with some of the products out there, but it will likely come back. If the dress is all you care about though... it can be done.

    Make sure it's from a pregnant lady, though.

    St. Pierre does that now. He drops 20+ pounds in a day to weigh in then puts it all back on by fight time.

    Figure this out mathematically: 10lbs (if it were all fat) would be the loss of 35,000 calories in 8 days. That's burning 4,375 a day ON TOP OF what you already burn. You would have to workout for about 6 1/2 hours with a burn of 500 calories per hour to reach that.
    Hate to tell you that I don't think it's gonna happen.

    If it did, it ain't fat you lost, but just water and you'll gain it all back again once you drink up.

    Not to mention you're gonna eat at that party, so that dress will even fit tighter.

    Tough Love solution: forget about the dress. It's more IMPORTANT to focus on your grandmother and enjoy it.

    I lost 10lbs in 2 weeks (14 days), first 5 lbs was water weight the 2nd was by completely taking Gluten out of my diet. I did not do it on purpose, my doctor told me I needed to stop eating gluten (to see if it would solve another medical issue). It is HARD trust me.

    It means NO WHEAT! Which means NO dressing for your salad (I did oil and balsamic vinegar). Most seasonings you can't eat either. Here is what a day in my life of no gluten was.

    Breakfast:
    2 Eggs
    1/2 cup of milk
    Gluten free cheese (2 thin slices)

    Lunch:
    Baby Spinach
    various raw green veggies
    15 baby carrots
    my home made dressing
    some sort of nut or chicken on top

    Snack
    some sort of fruit

    Dinner:
    Another small salad
    Chunk of meat (chicken, fish, ground beef etc)
    3 baby potoatoes
    I found some great corn pasta, and LOVE spaghetti squash.

    I lost the weight and kept it off (I have been stuck at 23lbs lost for around a month), and I still do not each much gluten, and when I do, I didn't gain the weight back! I found some amazing corn pasta, which is what I eat now when I want pasta. I hardly ever have bread. But when I eat out, and throw some gluten into my diet, I haven't gained it back. I ended up doing 2 months 100% gluten free, and now I am about 75 or 80%.

    Good luck!


    Thanks I will try to take some wheat out of my diet, I think I am addicted to it, well carbs anyway.

    Not surprising. They cheat though, pros get to weigh in a day or so before the fight. Real men weigh in 20 minutes before they compete.*


















    *sarcasm, obviously.

    It must be the pee of a pregnant virgin in order to work. And that certainly is not me...
