5 Tips to Lose 5 Pounds in a week

There are several ways to lose 5 pounds a week, but you have to do it right so that you don't just lose the weight but you'll be able to keep it off. As always, these tips are merely guidance. You are the one who will determine the outcome by acting on these tips or not:

1. Don't starve yourself
Starving yourself will only make things harder. Yes, you may lose weight but you will find it harder to keep it off in the future. You don't need to take extreme action and starve yourself. You need to eat smart, workouts and you can do this.

2. Healthy eating habits
The most important thing you need to do in order to lose 5 pounds in a week is to have healthy eating habits: don't skip breakfast, don't go for longer than 3 hours without eating anything, drink plenty of water, eat small meals and snacks, and avoid sugary drinks and candy.

3. Cleanup
Clean up your kitchen! This means that you need to get rid of all the food that isn't likely to help you lose weight. Just get rid of temptation. The list of potential suspects is long but you know what you have a craving for. You can't let that get in your way. Not during this coming week.

4. Exercise
If you have a gym membership it's high time you make use of it, but even if you don't it's quite easy to take an evening walk each night and do some bodyweight exercises at home. These can include pushups, sit-ups, squats, lunges, and so on. You want to burn as many calories as you can. If you're not active, you're not likely to succeed.

5. Cancel all dates and events
If you have business meeting then keep it, but cancel all social events and dates that may lead to eating or alcohol consumption. This, and alcohol in particular, is a source of empty calories and overeating that you simply can't afford if you want to lose 5 pounds in a week.
