assytee	you can defiantly do it, change your eating to greens and chix, and walk or run, for cardio, it is sooo possible!!! you can do it without crashing or diet pills, eating differently is going to be the biggest change, cut your portions in half, and eat healthy, you are still getting the proper nutrients, just not fat, grease, calories!! if you eat greens, chix and all healthy stuff, you will see results in a week! Guaranteed! you can do it! Good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

beantowngirl	Yes you can lose 10 lbs in a month and half if : 1. You exercise daily 40-50 mins 2. Eat a diet high protein, and veggies. 3. and visit ww.ballyfitness.com/nutrition (how much you lose as quickly may vary on your health, metabolism, etc.) Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

sarge927	Yes, it's very possible for you to lose 10 pounds in six weeks, and you don't have to use diet pills or do a crash diet either. Here's how you do it: 1. Do some type of exercise every day, even if it's only going for a 15-minute walk, but don't do more than any type of exercise for more than an hour at a time, once a day (you might lose muscle, and you don't want to do that). 2. Eat only when you're hungry (READ: Your stomach must be grumbling). This is your signal that you need food. Eating when you're not hungry will make you gain weight. 3. Don't stuff. Eat smaller portions if necessary. You may have to eat more often during the day, but as long as your stomach is signaling you that you need food, you're OK. 4. No between meal snacks (remember, only eat when you're hungry), only water, diet soda, and unsweetened coffee/tea between meals, and no gum or mints between meals unless it's sugarless. 5. Try to eat/drink more of these: -- Water -- Tea (Green Tea is best) -- Nuts, any kind (almonds are best) -- Beans and other legumes -- Green vegetables (spinach and broccoli are best) -- Lowfat dairy products -- Eggs (they're high in protein and "good" fat) -- Olive oil (also high in "good" fat) -- Lean meats (fish and poultry are best) -- Whole grain breads/cereals/pasta -- Fruit (apples and any type of berries are best) 6. Try to eat/drink less of these: -- Soft drinks (Diet soda is OK in moderation) -- Fast food -- Junk food -- Anything with high fructose corn syrup in it -- White breads, processed cereals, regular pasta -- Trans fats (partially or fully hydrogenated oils) 7. Breakfast is MANDATORY!!! Make sure you eat something within 2 hours of waking up. 8. Allow yourself at least 1/2 a day per week where you can have whatever you want. That's it! Cheers, and good luck! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

allgrownup321	If you guzzle water and cut out your sugar intake and lower your sodium intake, anyone will be able to see a major difference. In America's culture we have been taught that on-the-go is the way to go. It's not! Cook your own food and you will know what your body is taking in. Also, with the whole carbs situation: try lowering carbs instead of cutting them out and keep to your whole grains. Eating plenty of fruits and veggies and protein will keep your body with enough energy and if you need to, lower your calories. There are so many different things you can do for yourself. Try keeping your weight off permanatly with regular exercise and don't forget to work on your muscles. Stetching after working out helps tone and lengthen your muscles and keeps from your body aching alot. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

george	yes you can. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

weirdrelatives	It is safe to lose 1 - 1 1/2 lbs per week. If you have water weight, you may lose more. You should be able to lose just about 10 lbs in that amount of time. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

ocean	yes ,stay focused and run or walk....so how r u doin;) get back...u sound fun to talk to Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Sunny	Yes you can, just try to eat healthy and don't starve yourself here's something that has worked for me: Try drinking fresh squeezed pink Grapefruit Juice (1/2 a fruit) in the morning with your breakfast, eat light for lunch, try fruits for snacks, completely skip sodas and candy. If you have to eat dinnder try some grilled chicken or a light salad and substitute lemon for dressing and make sure that this is no later than 6 pm. Jogging and some exercise would be great at the same time. Also, steamed Cabbage or boiled Cabbage have been known to help you loose weight. I was told that rather than eating the Cabbage after boiling is to drink the water that it was boiled in. Hope thins helps Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

aloneinga	A person can usually lose 1-3 pounds a week if they have strict intake of food and do exercise...do not starve yourself, I don't think that losing 10 pounds in a month and a half will probably happen, but you could come close! Good luck!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

dbgyog	Yes. Avoid fatty, spicy, stimulative, cold and stale foods. Add salads and sprouts to your meals. You have already admitted to exercise. So this is enough. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

just♪wondering	That's quite do-able. On a reasonable (not crash) diet, you can easily lose 5 pounds in the first week, then 1-2 pounds a week after. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Tact is highly overrated	Yes, cardio exercise an hour at least 3 times a week, count your calories is probably the best way to diet because you can still maintain a healthy balance of what you eat and eat foods you like in moderation. Fill up on water!!! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

cosaxteacher	Yes, it is entirely possible. Doctors recommend losing 2 pounds a week, and since a month and a half is about 6-7 weeks, that is 12-14 lbs that they'd recommend losing safetly. Just do some good cardio, eat less, eat healthy. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

JC Rules!	I would say you stand a good chance if you workout in the morning before you eat anything at all. That way your body has fasted for 8 hrs. and you will be burning fat and not the breakfast you just ate. Good Luck. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

USC Fan	heck yea...stay focused, exercise and eat right, and you'll lose ten pounds in a week Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

youarefit2	If your BoozeMuse habits are such that you drink all lot of alcohol, forget about loosing weight. Your problem is drinking. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Rewsna	Yes but you'll likely gain it back quickly. And maybe even more on top of it. The body is not designed to withstand what amounts to sudden starvation. If you lose weight too quickly (which is what you describe) your body will react as if being starved and your metabolism will slow down (making it easier to gain weight) PLUS you'll be extra hungry and more likely to binge or overeat. Dieting such as you describe often leads people to develop eating disorders. Most often compulsive overeating. Which ultimately makes you fatter than you started out. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

riderchick	yes Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

GOTCHA!	YES I HAVE Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Chico	CHAA DEWD! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

Beth	Yes, exercise and eat healty meals. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

pari	Yes it is. There two things you have to do. A good nutrition and exercise. You have to do both of then in order for this method to work and believe me, it will work perfect. First about nutrition. Instead of eating one or two times and starving the rest of the day you should eat throughout the day six smaller meals. Breakfast is the most important, NEVER skip it. Try to eat foods that contain the following ingredients:protein, monounsaturated/polyunsaturated fats, fiber and Calcium. Limit your alcohol on three drinks a week and forget about sodas. Drink plenty of water. Limit foods that are high in saturated and trans fats. Now as far as exercise is concerned, 3 times a week is enough. You don't have to spent your whole day at the gym. Emphasize weight lifting. I am not talking to lift weights like crazy but even light weight lifting is ok. It is very important to build a little bit of more muscle since it will help you to burn fat automatically. Do some cardiovascular exercises the three times a week(20 min, each time) and work your abdominal muscles three times a week as well. Try to maintain your muscles. Some people starve and loose weight. That doesn't mean that you achieved your goals. It can happen due to muscle lost as well. Sometimes you don't need to loose weight but just fat. You need your muscles because they help you burn fat. The above guidelines are just a quick guide. If you want to get deep on that its a long story. Believe me it works, i am talking from personal experience. Following that way eventually i lost 25 pounds and the most perfect thing is that now i cheat this plan very often and i don't put weight. The secret is that this is not a diet. It is a way of living. Eventually you change your metabolism and then your body burns fat automatically for you. Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No

madison018	if you do nothing but exercise and lay off all fats and sugars! sure it's possible, but most people don't have the self discipline! Was this answer helpful to you? Yes / No
