Question Posted Wednesday January 31 2007, 6:33 pm
I really need to lose like 10 lbs. I want to do it unhealthy. I told my mom and she was like ok. So please help me. Because I need tips to resist food.
Why would you want to lose weight in an unhealthy way. Those effects are temporary... they will not last. You will likely end up losing muscle mass in the process as well (which will make it even harder to lose weight in the future).
Ten pounds you can lose in a couple of months in a totally healthy way. You can improve your health, energy levels etc. and you can keep the weight off. Just follow some simple dietary guidelines such as eating often, balanced, low on saturated fats, less than you burn etc. Throw in some exercise and thats pretty much it.
Im not even sure what sort of unhealthy way you had in mind. If it was a starvation type diet, well... lets just say thats the fitness equivalent of shooting yourself in the foot. Harmful and uneccessary. [ Alin75's advice column | Ask Alin75 A Question ]

Hmm... Sounds like somebody should stick a foot in both of your asses, if this is the case. [ Brandi_S's advice column | Ask Brandi_S A Question ]
its_melissa_DuH answered Wednesday January 31 2007, 7:00 pm: please, please don't starve yourself. i'm begging you, please! there's this drink called Slimfast Optima and it controls your hunger for 4 hours and it helps you lose a lot of weight and it's only 190 calories! so if you drink one of those every day, you will lose your 10 pounds in 2 weeks or less. bring some of those slim fast drinks to school, too. just please don't starve yourself, because once you starve yourself your stomach needs the nutrients and your stomach starts eating itself which is extremely unhealthy and can cause death and also you gain more weight. the Slimfast drinks are the best choice! they come in yummy flavors like chocolate, french vanilla, carmel, etc. hope i helped and good luck with it! let me know how it goes!

Don't resist food; choose better food. Fruits and veggies, leaner cuts of meat. Exercise is just as important as what you eat, if not more so.
It's really a matter of balance. If you starve yourself, you'll gain the weight back eventually because you'll start eating again, and nothing will have changed. If you make lifestyle changes, and they don't have to be huge, you'll keep the weight off and feel better about yourself. [ Daimeera's advice column | Ask Daimeera A Question ]
