I'm afraid everyone else is right on target with this one. You might lose an inch off your belly if you do not eat or drink ANYTHING for the rest of the week, but the odds are much better that you would end up in the hospital first, seriously ill - quite possibly even DEAD.

Just to be perfectly clear: DON'T TRY IT.

Six days without water would probably kill you. Even if you survived, you'd certainly do serious and lasting harm to your body. Harm that would last the rest of your life. It's simply not worth it.

Losing weight is a good idea of course (assuming that you ARE overweight), but that takes time and sustained effort. There are no magic cures or weight-loss remedies; anyone who tries to tell you different is selling something.

It would help to know why you have such a specific deadline, and what the event will be. Not knowing that, I'll say this: Changing your attitude and your posture makes a MUCH bigger difference in your looks (particularly when it comes to first impressions) than an inch around your waistline. Look people in the eye, smile, talk in a friendly way, and no one will whip out a measuring tape to check your belt size.

If it's a matter of fitting into a particular outfit, you have three options:

1. Try to suck in your stomach for the entire event. That would probably hurt.

2. Get some sort of shape-controlling undergarment. There are lots of types for sale. But DON'T rely on them for more than one or two events - you could end up with circulation problems.

It's a much better idea to set up and stick with a long-term plan of healthier eating and exercise. That doesn't have to be torture. In fact, it SHOULDN'T be; if you don't enjoy it, you're not going to stick with it.

3. Buy new clothes instead.

Good luck!
