    You could probably come close to that figure just counting calories.

    Yeah you could just...lose the weight.

    ^^^Yep, that's just over a pound a week (if my calendar math is right).

    Accurately count your calories to stay in a deficit. Cardio and resistance for aesthetics...

    It's water with fruits or veggies in it, they say cucumber helps burn fat but I'm not sure if it's true.

    Two words. Filtered urine. Mostly from cats. But if you get a hold of a dog or two that's fine also.

    Dr. Oz now recommends Squirrel urine over Cat urine. The pH and alkalinity of Squirrel urine is higher (which helps weight loss) plus Squirrel pheremones have a "secret" effect on belly fat (saw it on a blog).

    if you lost a pound a week between now and may you could probably drop about 12 ...but it is going to take calorie deficit, accurate logging, and hard work ..and not some magical detox water..

    I would suggest putting your stats into MFP for 1 pound per week loss and eat to that number, and get a food scale and weigh/log/measure everything.

    As a fellow beach goer, I would also suggest a heavy lifting program so you can rock that bikini...:)

    5x5 and stronglifts are great programs.

    If it's on the internet it must be true :)

    Anything with the word "detox" in it is pretty much snake oil.

    Hi there,
    theres a saying, "The more you drink, the more you shrink". Water, that is.

    So the benefits of drinking lots of water is:

    It makes you feel full
    Rehydrates your whole body
    Cleanses the skin and gives you that amazing glow.

    Of course you still need to eat and the fallacy that people get caught up is that if they stop eating they will loose weight but you need this to keep the metabolism ticking.

    So go girl.... You can do this and loose the weight.

    No one is attacking you.
    If you want to learn - read the sticky "announcement" posts.

    Then those different people you should put on a list of "do not listen to."
