May I suggest... You'll lose 20 pounds in a week!

Options
Things people have suggest me to lose weight:
-Diet Pills
-Oatmeal Water everyday
-Ginger tea w/ honey every night
-Pineapple water everyday
- ONLY fruits everyday!
- Just water for 3 days out of the week! (now I think this person was trying to kill me)
- a cabbage Soup diet


Honestly why do people want to lose weight so fast! There is no magical diet that can actually help you lose the weight you need to lose and maintain it, in a healthy way. I rather eat 1200-1500 calories a day of healthy stuff and lose 1-2 pounds a week than to hurt my body and lose "5-10" in a week.

What have people suggest you to do??

    Chewing gum, apples and diet coke only for two weeks. Yep, I said it.

    Good for you for talking common sense! I wholeheartedly agree. Will we get frustrated when we don't lose as much as we hoped in a month? Yes. Will we stay healthy and keep the weight off by using balance/variety/moderation. Absolutely.

    P.S. Oatmeal water? Gross.

    I used to be one of those people who liked to lose weight fast, but I ALWAYS gained it back. This time, I'm eating my way to skinny. It's slow going, but it's working - and maybe I'll keep it off! I usually do Atkins (low carb). I'm still watching carbs, but I'm not obsessed with it.

    EPICMEYRI - you're absolutely right! And you look great!
