    Can I ask why you are trying to lose so much so quickly. Often times when you first start a new diet, you may lose that much in the first week but it is usually just water weight...

    Depending on your weight, it is possible to lose that much in a week, My friend is heavy and can lose anywhere from 2lbs to 10lbs in a week, but shes heavy not thin and works out 6x a week for atleast an hour on top of eating very heathly.

    Dont eat anything 3 hrs before you go to sleep that will give you time to digest the food, stick to a routine for a week, to see what works for you, also if your new to working out, go for walks once a day for 30mins(makes a big difference)

    watch the show " I used to be fat ' on mtv if you have on demand you can watch them all they have 100 days to slim down before college. If nothing else it is a inspirational show. I do know from watching it is a lot of excerise and eating right.

    Stop the train a minute.

    Honey, you're not going to lose 190 lbs - per your profile - in three months. It's not going to happen, short of you losing a few limbs. Can you lose a substantial amount of weight in that time? Yes. I don't know your starting or goal weights, or height, but you have GOT to set yourself some REALISTIC goals. Otherwise, you're just going to get massively discouraged, and quit. Especially at your age. I'm 25 and I STILL have the focus of a pigeon at times.

    This site is filled with SO much info, and so many amazing people. That you're starting at all is a step in the right direction. With hard work, dedication, exercise, and a great diet full of yummy, healthy foods, you could attain your goal. ABSOLUTELY. Stay strong, absorb all the knowledge you can, and get healthy. That's what matters.

    Just take a day by day. The more you want it the less you will get.

    As a one time deal (because generally speaking 5lbs in 1 week is unhealty) you could easily lose 5lbs in one week by carefully tracking and cutting your sodium. Keep it below 1000grams per day and you should be able to flush any water weight your carrying. Often that will amount to close to 5lbs on its own ;)

    First off, you didn't get to whatever weight you're at over night, in a week, or in a month. In fact, it probably took several months, years even, to get to where you are now. It's going to take time to pull the weight back off as well. It's not an overnight process.

    Take time to read the forums. There are plenty of people who have already detailed the best courses of action for different folks.

    The biggest key is eating habits.

    what she said. just spend time educating yourself on being healthy and how the body works. and i can say the 2 most important things when dieting for me have been to be honest with myself about what ive been eating, and to just have COMMON SENSE. people forget about that. common sense tells you that a big mac is not healthy for you. so yeah. good luck. :)

    This is awful advice. First of all 5 lbs a week is an unreasonable goal, impossible even, and to support that goal is folly. Second of all, the whole not eating before you go to bed is nonsense. It doesn't matter when you eat throughout the day provided you stay at your calorie goal.
