Really want to loose weight quick

Do not rely on starvation diets (one meal a day), or pills. These will not lead to consistent weight loss that you can maintain. Once you return to normal habits and stop using the pills, the weight can come back on. Pills will also not help you lose weight. The only weight you will lose is in your wallet.
It didn't take you a short amount of time to put the weight on, so take your time to learn how to eat better, fit foods you want into your macros, and create sustainable changes in your life that you can continue to do for the rest of your life.0 -
OP, I think you might be under some very common misapprehensions about weight loss. You don't have to deprive yourself. Truly. You don't have to wait for "treat day" and suffer through foods you don't really enjoy. All you have to do is maintain a calorie deficit. Really.
If you look at my diary, I still have ice cream or chocolate almost every day. I eat out at Taco Bell and still have pizza. I just don't have an entire pizza, or even half of one, in one sitting.
This is what was meant when people keep telling you to make sustainable choices. If you're not planning to eat salad for lunch every day, and Rice Crispies isn't a breakfast you plan on eating five years from now, then don't do it now. You can eat what you want to eat, and keep all the foods you love...you just need to find ways of doing so that are sustainable, in portions that are reasonable. This will help you lose the weight and keep it off for life. It will also help keep you from binging and having cravings, and generally make life easier.0 -
In Jan, for one week i did well and i lost 5
I wondered if it would work if i only had one meal a day which is dinner? But still take my dog for walks everyday which is normally 45 mins. I'll have little breakfast though. Its hard. I try take dog for walk everyday and do sit ups every evening

You don't need to guess about how much to eat or exercise. If you haven't already, set up your diet and fitness goals on this site and let the program estimate what your intake should be. Use the diary. Don't set yourself up for failure by trying extreme methods because you already know you won't stick to them. Definitely read the links the other posters gave you.
As far as the treat meal or day...it definitely can hurt your weight loss efforts if you don't allow for those extra calories.
Read not only this thread that you started but others as well because there are very knowledgeable people that are active on this forum. You will learn a lot from their comments.0 -

I'm trying to avoid Cheese, Bacon, i like Chinese sometimes, i sometimes go out but i have Blue Becks or Diet Coke. I dont want to eat unhealthy foods all the time.
Yeah i understand, i can find a way is walking everyday and sit ups, sometimes will have food which i love. Like tonight, someone is doing Pasta Bake but i'll have a small portion0 -
I've read a few on others.
I sometimes do my diary foods but i miss a few days sometimes0 -
Okay thanks I'll have to choose healthier foods and keep walking everyday but sometimes you cant be bothered go for walks but i have to if i really want to loose weight. . Well im 4ft11 and about 9 stone 4. I'd like to loose before August for the wedding, my brother's wedding. Plus im only 23, 3 years ago i was 8 stone.
Once a week, normally on a Sunday its a treat day which isnt bad is it
At such a low weight, you really can't have a full on cheat day (I'm about 130, 5'3"). Our calorie deficits are so low to begin with that eating a cheat day can ruin a whole week's progress. Sure, you can go over your daily calorie limit on sundays, but only by a few hundred cals, nothing extensive.
EDIT: grammar0 -

For real. Why's everyone always in such a hurry to lose weight?
Unfortunately we live in a world where people just want instant gratification. Think of how much of a riot there would be if we had to go back to dial up internet.

If you want it, work for it. There's no quick fix to it at all. Bust your *kitten*. You didn't gain everything in one day, so you can't expect to lose it all in one day. But you know, as time passes and you see your body changing, that counts as gratification too…
who wouldn't be proud that the hard work you've put into your body over the months/years is finally showing???0 -

You want fast results? Try liposuction lol. You want actual results? Change your thinking.
The fastest loss you will get for a SUSTAINABLE fitness plan, with NO cheating and LOTS of exercise is about 1-1.5lbs per week. That's it. Be patient and consistent.
You can drop probably about 10lbs before August if you are an absolute stickler. That's about it. Those pills and diet plans and everything else are great at selling you hype, but they don't work. Only hard work actually works. Go figure.0 -

You don't need to take pills or starve yourself, just learn about calories, set a reasonable calorie target, and start logging everything you eat.
I'm the same height as you and I started at 9 stone 5. I'm now 8 stone 11, which is 8 lb in 3 months. Am aiming to lose another 7 pounds. Yes it's slow, and it doesn't sound all that dramatic but I'm down a dress size, all my clothes fit again. I thought I would never lose the weight but it's happening, and I'm not starving myself. I eat 1450 a day - 3 meals, snacks, and the occasional McDonalds or glass of wine. You need patience knowledge and persistence.0
