How to Lose Weight One Week From Now!

Many people looking to lose weight are trying to find fast working weight loss methods. They want to lose weight one week from starting any diet, which is why crash diets, starvation diets, diet pills and celebrity diets seems to be very popular.

The question is: "Is it really possible to lose weight one week down the line?". If so, can it be done in a sustainable and healthy manner?

There's no doubt that you can lose weight with any diet in one week or less, because once you start taking in less calories than you burn, weight loss is inevitable. It's as simple as that! Whether you achieve this through watching what you eat, or by increasing the amount of exercise you get, or both.

So, if you can lose weight in just one week on almost any diet, the important bit would be to look at the second question and see if the weight loss is healthy and sustainable. Going on a diet shouldn't be something that will harm your body and/or its organs, which unhealthy diets will do. What's more, there's no point going on a diet that will make you lose weight one week after starting out, if all or most of that weight comes back on again.

This is what rules all of the above mentioned dieting methods out! If you primarily lose "water weight" rather than excess body fat, you're more likely to put the weight back on (sometimes even more!), once you return to your non-dieting eating habits.

So how can you lose weight one week from today? Well - the first step is to realise that you need to lose weight - which I suppose you have done, since you're reading this article. Next, you have to be honest with yourself. If you're like most people wanting to lose weight, there's a good chance you wouldn't have put on the excess weight in one week, so trying to lose all your excess weight in a week would be unrealistic.

The answer is to find a diet that suits you, a diet that will take you by the hand, and help you to gradually change your lifestyle and bring you back to your ideal weight. Some diets have their emphasis on what you eat - others on exercise. Both of these approaches are good - it's simply a matter of personal preference which type of diet is best for you.

Any diet will help you lose weight one week from now - but you need to find a healthy, balanced diet - which will help you lose body fat rather than just water weight. A diet with the right balance of eating/exercise for you.
