1 week quick fix diet - help?

I have one week to drop a bit of excess weight before I go on holiday.

I've been loosing weight heAlthily and gradually for about a year now but I just want some quick tips for this week just so I can drop 2-4lbs before I go on holiday if possible...

I'm drinking lots of water and green tea to help flush but what should I be eating this week to help push it even more? I hear limiting carbs and fats (only really eating protein and some greens) would help work quickly??

I normally eat around 1300-1600 kcal a day and that just about maintains my weight, so I'm planning on eating 1000-1200 this week??

If you have 7 days- I suggest either the Cabbage soup diet or the 3-Day Military diet. it will help you drop a few more pounds and they are actually pretty easy!

This is terrible, unhealthy and unethical advice. Starving the body of necessary energy and nutrients will not do anything but cause her to lose some water weight, be cranky and likely overeat once the process has ended, leaving her in a worse state than if she'd just continued to eat at a modest deficit. The end outcome of most of these ridiculous starvation diets tends to be weight gain, not weight loss due to the likelihood of binging afterwards.

OP, do not take this advice.

I appreciate your opinion however- how is this starving your body? I do the cabbage soup cleanse once every 8 weeks and I still make sure to hit 1200 calories. Do a little research on it.. foods are UNLIMITED they are just specific.

So, if you're hitting 1200 calories, what's the point of this diet? Why not just eat food like a normal person?

I apologize if I did not make myself very clear.. I do it as a CLEANSE not a day to day diet..

I have one week to drop a bit of excess weight before I go on holiday.

I've been loosing weight heAlthily and gradually for about a year now but I just want some quick tips for this week just so I can drop 2-4lbs before I go on holiday if possible...

I'm drinking lots of water and green tea to help flush but what should I be eating this week to help push it even more? I hear limiting carbs and fats (only really eating protein and some greens) would help work quickly??

I normally eat around 1300-1600 kcal a day and that just about maintains my weight, so I'm planning on eating 1000-1200 this week??

If you have 7 days- I suggest either the Cabbage soup diet or the 3-Day Military diet. it will help you drop a few more pounds and they are actually pretty easy!

This is terrible, unhealthy and unethical advice. Starving the body of necessary energy and nutrients will not do anything but cause her to lose some water weight, be cranky and likely overeat once the process has ended, leaving her in a worse state than if she'd just continued to eat at a modest deficit. The end outcome of most of these ridiculous starvation diets tends to be weight gain, not weight loss due to the likelihood of binging afterwards.

OP, do not take this advice.

I appreciate your opinion however- how is this starving your body? I do the cabbage soup cleanse once every 8 weeks and I still make sure to hit 1200 calories. Do a little research on it.. foods are UNLIMITED they are just specific.

So, if you're hitting 1200 calories, what's the point of this diet? Why not just eat food like a normal person?

I apologize if I did not make myself very clear.. I do it as a CLEANSE not a day to day diet..

You cleanse every time you poop and pee. (with or without the cabbage soup nonsense)

A way to lose some weight fast in a week before holiday is to do what I do.
For one week I eat around 800 - 900 calories a day.
E.g. for the day I would eat: one bowl of cereal, one mango, fat free yogurt, cracker bread with a thin spreading of Philadelphia cheese, hot chocolate, sugar free squash.

It's hard, but if it's only for a week to shed those extra few pounds then it will work. Worked for me every year.

Strong first post.

Yeah, the ticker and the statement that it's done 'every year' isn't doing the advice any favors.

Yes thanks for asking! I like to cleanse any toxins. No one is perfect when it comes to eating and we all slip up and have processed foods, alcohol, refined sugars, etc. "toxins" if you will. The 7-Day cleanse has really helped me FEEL good

Well if it makes you feel good, I can see why you do it. But eating food or drink does nothing to remove any "toxins". The body is very efficient at eliminating waste and processing the "chemicals" from food that comes into the body.

:laugh: Yeah no. And don't do low carb, either. Carb flu makes the first couple weeks of low carb a misery, and Cabbage soup or anything to do with the military is probably miserable, too. Better to let it go and enjoy whatever you're looking forward to.

Whenever someone says they do a "cleanse" and it's not for weight loss, just it makes them feel better... Why not eat right from the start and you don't have to do any sort of cleanse at all? I eat right 90% of the time now and I feel great. No cleanse required. Like someone else said...you pee and poo and that kind of covers it, right?

it's all water weight; you do realize that, correct?

Yes. I do not do this to lose weight. I do it for a cleanse. If it makes the OP happier doing it and seeing a little movement on the scale regardless if it is water weight or not- is not up to you nor I.

I personally do the 7 day cleanse every 8 weeks. I do lose about 5lbs and end up gaining 2 back, typically. I do this for a cleanse though. Not to lose weight. That is just an extra added bonus

and may i ask, cleansing of what?

Yes thanks for asking! I like to cleanse any toxins. No one is perfect when it comes to eating and we all slip up and have processed foods, alcohol, refined sugars, etc. "toxins" if you will. The 7-Day cleanse has really helped me FEEL good

Do you have a medical condition that prevents your liver and kidneys from working properly?

I don't think this is your business to be certain. But yes. I do- please private message me if you would like to discuss more of my medical issues.

Are you actually referring to inches? Because as others have said, 2 - 4 pounds is really not enough to show a change unless you're very tiny to begin with.

I do eat healthy regularly.

If you eat healthy regularly, then you don't need a cleanse.
