JimmyQ	You have to come up with some type of a reward system, this will help keep you motivated. One of the best things to do is make a contingency contract. Stating what you want to do, who will help you do it, and what do you get for doing it. Then also try to find a well balance diet program. My friend did this one diet program where the average weight lose is 7 pounds in 9 days. It might be the thing you are looking for, I know it's well balanced. If you want e-mail me and I can tell you more about either of these. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Schvinger	Well they say its best to only lose 2lb per weeks so it is possible you can lose more that that but they say the best way to keep it off is to lose it slowlly. But yes it can be done and best of luck have fun on your trip. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Jessica	Definitely. Have a daily exercise plan that is balanced weekly between your entire body. Along with that, have nutritional and balanced meals each day. I am absolutely positive you will lose more than 10 pounds in those 6 weeks if you do it correctly. Maybe get a personal trainer to help you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ordinaryangel5	10 lbs in 6 weeks is a very healthy and reachable goal. Experts say 1-2 pounds a week is what you should expect if you are going about it in a healthy way, though you might drop more in the first few days just from water weight. Good luck, and remember, diets don't work if they're not followed up by healthy eating and regular exercise. =) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Anna R	This is a very realistic goal. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

leafs_freak	For sure! You can do it in 5 healthily! You could lose more than that but it might not be healthy for you... I lost about 25 lbs in the last month from just eating healthy foods. I know its not healthy to lose more but I am just eating the right foods like bran flakes and whole grain breads! As long as you eat right, get some exercise and stick with it you WILL lose 10 pounds! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

deremyr	Sure, ten lbs in 6 weeks isn't unrealistic at all, just eat correctly and exercise every day. One of my friends cut carbs and starches and fruit completely out of his diet and lost 5 pounds a week! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Bexi	I'm sure you'll loose most of it before the 6 week period is up. You should be able to loose it the first couple weeks of exercising. Also it could be due to water weight so you might want to flush your system. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Crystal Star	Yes, 10lbs in 6 weeks is workable. You sound like you already have your plan in place.. smart gal. I hope you plan to eat healthy ( include lots of green ). Also eat slowly. What ever plan you have even if you "cheat" eat one small bite at a time, put your utensil down and chew slowly. Give yourself a chance to enjoy this care of your body... only after you swallow your well chewed bite go to the next. Don't be surprise if you fill up on a very small amount. Save the rest for later. I have learned to put my food on a saucer or salad plate because I find the slow eating fills me very quickly and finishing my plate is sometimes something i am compelled to do. Have a wonderful vacation!!! Best wishes. Light & Love, Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

TheAimer	Yes, in 6 weeks try cutting out processed sugar from your diet...and cut out all fried and things high in fat, 10 lbs should come off in no time! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Cynthia ♥	that is a very realisitic goal...at least its not like 10 pounds in 6 days or even 2 weeks, those are probably unhealthy. walking on a tredmill or jogging and situps should get u there. i had a personal trainer after i had my daugher and she said losing 1-2 pounds a week about average weightloss when working out Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

barry s	yes. most health authorities recommend 2-3 pounds per week maximum. in addition to the previous answers here, you may also want to reduce your intake of saturated fats. these are found mostly in meats, fish & seafood, and dairy products. read the labels of packaged foods, and ask restaurants to use butter and oil sparingly. another tip is to eat 4-5 small meals per day instead of 3 big meals. this keeps your digestive system working all day, and you may find yourself feeling fuller longer, so you don't eat as many calories, and you'd avoid those snack attacks! you also know to avoid junk foods. when you get the munchies go for oatmeal cookies or high fiber bread instead of chips, pretzels, ice cream, candy, etc. increasing the amount of fiber in your diet is good--not only for disease prevention, but also because fiber makes you feel fuller. many high fiber foods are also fat free, like many beans. many high fiber foods are also low calorie. so you may find yourself eating just as much as before, feeling full, and losing weight without eating less! calorie reduction doesn't have to mean eating less. read the labels of canned beans in the grocery store. try a variety of beans. since most canned beans are packed in salt, you want to rinse the beans before eating. i dump the beans from the can into a strainer, rinse off the syrupy glop, rinse out the can, put the beans back into the can, fill the can with water covering the beans. then refrigerate the can. a can will last 1-3 days at most if you eat at least .5 cup a day. or more. with a better diet added to your current exercise program, 10 pounds should be easy. and if you should ever have to resume that antidepressant, with a better diet + exercise you many not gain the weight. especially now that you know that the pills lead to weight gain. good luck!
