    Well, yes but not overnight. Probably 5-10 weeks depending on how big you are.

    The short answer? No.

    6-8 weeks is more like it.

    You could lose ten pounds in twenty minutes if you hack off a limb. (I don't know, I'm just guessing that's how long it would take).

    Sorry, not funny.

    On your frame? What is the rush? You will have much much better luck if you take the long view. When you take weight off slowly, it stays off. Be healthy. If you do something drastic and ridiculous, you're setting yourself up to fail.

    If you drink a lot of soda and/or alchohol, cutting that out will get you there, but other than that, only silly crash diets that are bad for you in the long run.

    It's possible to do 10 lbs in a month, but might be better over 6 weeks like Paris said. You want the weight loss to be permanent, which sometimes requires that you lose it slower than you'd like.

    Cut out the bad stuff, clean up your diet, and exercise a reasonable amount. Make changes that you can live with long term so that the weight stays off.

    It depends how you gained it. I know for me personally, if I eat really really bad for a week or so I can easily gain six pounds or so on the scale. Now, did I really gain six pounds of fat? No, it's water weight. so by getting back on track the next week, I will get down six pounds or back to normal. If you gained water weight then totally you can loose that, if it's real weight probably not. You can do it in a month though!

    It's very unlikely,unless you weigh 400 lbs to start with!
    You could lose that 10 lbs of fat in a month healthily and without having to worry about loose skin.
    In two weeks chances are most of the weight would be water and muscle, and your chances of putting it back on again are high.

    If it is fat, as above, and you can drop off a total 500 calories per day (a lot) from diet and exercise, you can lose 1 pound in a week. That is because 3500 calories (7 days times 500 calories) equals one pound of body fat. Most women need from roughly 900 to 1500 calories per day to maintain a normal weight.

    To help this along, note that one gram of food fat is 9 calories and one gram of food carbohydrates or proteins is about 3 calories. So dropping off the food fats/oils is the easiest way to lose body fat.

    This may help in planning what is possible for you.
    I loved going to strip clubs; I actually made some friends there. Now things are different for the clubs and for me. As a result I am not as happy.

    Customers are not entitled to grope, disrespect, or rob strippers. This is their job, not their hobby, and they all need income. Clubs are not just some erotic show for guys to view while drinking.

    NOTE: anything I post here, outside of a direct quote, is my opinion only, which I am entitled to. Take it for what you estimate it is worth.

    In 2 weeks? Definitely doable but be careful. Try not to go under 1200 calories a day, eat small, frequent meals and work out like crazy. oh, lots of water and fiber too.

    I just started exercising more and eating better this week (again...long hiatus) and lost 4 pounds. I'm quite happy by that. It's typical though to loose up to 5 pounds in week one of a fitness change. It usually doesn't last longer than that one week..then you're down to about 2 pounds a week (depending on how you changed your diet and workout routine).
    I'm not who I say I am.

    ^it takes approximately 1200 calories a day to just lay there breathing and doing NOTHING. to actually walk up and move around requires more than 1200.

    go to calorie-counter.com then click on allowance, then type in your goal, it will give you the amount of days you could lose 10 pounds in.

    I think it helps if you exercise lightly all throughout the day, instead of having a one/two-hour crash workout.

    10lbs in 2 weeks is *absolutely* possible! If you drink alcohol, cut it out completely.

    When I stopped drinking, I dropped weight like crazy. Also, if you cut your carbs down, the weight will also fall off without much effort. I used to drink several cocktails per night, and probably ate 200 carbs a day. I cut out the booze, and cut my carbs down to about 80 a day, and lost about 5-7lbs a week. It's stayed off, and I haven't had a drink in 7 months!

    We all know you can loser 10 lbs in 2 weeks but I believe her question was if you can lose it healthily and I believe all nutrition experts are in agreement that you cannot. The only ones who say that you can are selling Hollywood "Miracle Diet".

    I guess I just don't agree. I have lost 10+ lbs in 2 weeks by removing alcohol and "bad" carbs from my diet - basically, I gave up my cocktails and fast food.....and worked out 3 times a week for 20-25 minutes per day. I have stopped working out, but I still avoid alcohol and bad carbs, and the 18lbs (total) that I've lost have stayed off for the past 7 months. Just my personal experience.

    Well let's assume she wants to lose fat and not water or muscle weight. It takes 3500 calories to lose a pound therefore it takes 35000 calories to lose 10 pounds. If she wants to lose 10 pounds, she has to make sure that over 2 weeks she burns 35000 calories more than she intakes. This means reducing her caloric intake by 2500 calories a day which is ridiculous.

    Please note that I am talking about losing 10 pounds of fat, not just losing 10 pounds.

    If we're talking 10lbs of pure fat - your calculations are completely correct and I am in agreement!
    However, she's gonna lose water weight also, either way you look at it. When I lost my weight, I am sure it was a lot of water weight at first. I was drinking pretty heavily at the time, so when I stopped my body was more or less getting back to normal and shedding a lot of that. So my situation probably isn't the best example But like I said in my post, that was just my experience.

I know that when I lose weight, it means I'm getting physically smaller too. I think for that to be otherwise, your muscle mass would have to undergo extreme changes.
    People can look the same size on the outside and one could simply have a higher muscle to fat ratio and you wouldn't even be able to tell. But she didn't say she was losing fat.. she said she wanted to lose 10 pounds for 'size', so she can fit in her jeans. 10 pounds can be water weight and have the same effect. My point is weight, in the end, means NOTHING. You can weigh exactly the same and fit into your jeans a week later.. even working out.. you might've lost fat on your tummy and gained on your thighs from the elliptical or something.

    You want to lose inches, not weight... and focusing on weight only focuses on the unhealthy aspects on eating because you think you have to weigh XXX to be beautiful... and you don't. So say she fits into her jeans next week... and her scales show she's only lost 4 pounds. And she keeps going... but her extreme workout is making her gain some muscle or she's retaining water that week.. so she keeps going. Now the scale says she lost 6 pounds and she's swimming in her jeans but she keeps going because DAMN that last four pounds will not elude her, damnit!! Next thing you know she's lost 10" in the waist and refuses to eat a celery stick because 'only one more pound' when she was beautiful and fitting into her sexy jeans 6 pounds ago... but because her focus was on the weight and not on her reflection, she went too far.*

    I just throw in my usual rant because I've seen it happen WAY to often. That search to lose that last pound when you never needed to just gets to some people... and it terrifies me that people base so much of their life on a number.

    I really like this information youve given. You see I was a gymnist/dancer for years so I have some thick muscular thighs that you cant see b/c there is fat on top giving the illusion of fat legs/etc...for some reason I keep thinking they are fat...do yeah all this makes sense. Do you have any workout tips that dont build muscles in your thighs? b/c that oculd very well be part of the problem since Im on the eliptical 3 days a week...I just want to get rid of my fat pockets really and I can grab a nice chunk on my thighs/belly/booty ...and Im not sure what that comes out to lb. wise I really need to fit into my jeans!
