I answered a question about weight loss for Halloween and you said losing 12 pounds in a week was not healthy. I gave my website for her to visit and if you would have gone there I believe you be surprised with the info on the site. Yes water and fat loss can rapidly reduce your weight at first but a changed lifestyle is what I teach. I might have made loosing a lot of weight sound easy but my site is much more than that. Check it out. www.healthfix4life.com
Second, I made no other comment in reference to you, or what you teach, other than that 6 pounds in a week is certainly not recommendable.
Frankly, if I might add, that's a pretty reckless thing to say to someone who was a teenager looking to fit into an outfit. Like I said in my answer, that amount of weight loss is not recommended even for the obese, and even then there was no indication in that question that she fit in that category. Quite to the contrary actually.
Now, I did not mean to attack you personally. However I have to stick to the things that I have learned, both through quite a bit of personal experience and through taking the ISSA fitness trainer education. I have to provide advice that I believe is safe, realistic and sustainable.
That was the reason I made the comment I made. With that in mind, reviewing the information on your site is not exactly relevant.
Edit: Oh, one last thing. This is the sort of thing that is best handled on the personal forums. I dont mind answering this at all but, just so you know, one is not supposed to use the question function for anything other than advice. [ Alin75's advice column | Ask Alin75 A Question ]
