Step 1) For the week or two that you're trying to do this, completely clean out your diet. You'll need to eliminate the sugars from diet, and as much salt as you can. You'll also need to drink only wqater for this period, and lots of it. No soda, no milk, no fruit juice, just water, about 60-80 ounces a day depending on your starting body weight. You also want to eat as little processed food as possible - fast food should go right out the window, as should prepacked frozen foods.
Step 2) Exercise hard for at least thirty minutes a day, concentrationg on aerobic activity. Walk, run, run in place, bike, swim, whatever, as long as you're doing it intensely for at least 30 continuous minutes.
The caveat here is that you may not still lose 4 lbs. You will, however, much more likely meet the size goal that you're looking for, and generally look and feel much healthier. [ mbhubbard's advice column | Ask mbhubbard A Question ]
