You can't. Eating healthy & exercising is the only way to lose weight. It's unhealthy to lose more than 5 lbs a week.

Your goal can & never will happen.

You should only be losing about 2-3 pounds per week, meaning your goal is VERY unrealistic.

It's unhealthy to lose the weight you want to lose.

Eat a balanced diet, getting all your needed nutrients, drink a lot of water, and exercise.

Listen, I am going to say it like it is. Your goal is unrealistic and unhealthy. If you do achieve this target it will mainly be muscle loss and water loss.

Even if I take your low limits... 10 lbs in 10 days, that is still way too high. Even extremely obese adults should not be losing anywhere near so much, let alone a youngster.

So, please dont even try this, you stand to gain nothing (the water suggestion below wont work either by the way). Just start eating sensibly and increase your activity level. In most cases weight loss should not really exceed 2lbs/ week. The good news is that weight loss at that rate will actually mainly be fat, it will be sustainable and it wont mess up your metabolism.

losing 10-15 pounds in only 10 days.. isn't very health nor do i know how to do this, but here are some things you can do but i dont think you will see much results by then.. you should have thought about it sooner:
-no soda
-no food thats high in sodium
- eat more meals but have them be smaller meals and im not talking about a small fry at mcdonalds, i mean like healthy things like when you wake up eat an apple then a few hours later ear a bannan and some toast .. more meals will get your matabolism going and make you lose wait, but they have to be healthy means, no fatty foods. Also doing simple excersise like maybe run half a mile a day or jumping jacks for 10 minutes each morning simple excersises if done right and everyday will help with losing weight
