I was recently asked how it was possible to lose 40 pounds in 2 weeks. It seems that when it comes to weight loss, no expectation is too extreme or exaggerated. No wonder so many scammy weight loss products are sold day after day and leave people poorer but not thinner. People will believe practically any claim.
I won't go into a scientific discussion of the kind of calorie burning you need in order to lose 40 lbs in 2 weeks. It is plain that this is a huge weight loss in a very short time. I doubt that even extreme weight loss methods will be able to help you achieve it.
\"Extreme Weight Loss Methods\"
However, let's talk about what you may experience if you try to lose 40 pounds in 2 weeks:
You will need to use an extreme method, something that would entail a very low calorie consumption and an increased calorie burn rate. You will need to restrict what you eat and to train extremely hard to actually believe yourself that this is something that may happen.
At first, you may see your weight drop off quite a bit. However, before you get too excited, please remember that this is likely to be mostly water weight. You're not going to be burning a lot of body fat. Even this liquid weight loss will hardly be enough to get you close to being 40 pounds lighter. It may give you the illusion that this is indeed possible.
This kind of drastic calorie reduction is likely to cut into your muscle tissue and not just your fat. If you continue with it too long, your muscles will start to be eaten away as your body won't be able to sustain them any longer. This will lower your metabolism, stall your weight loss, and set the stage for a bounce in your weight as you rebound.
This is all due to your impatience and the need to try to lose weight in a crazy and unrealistic way. The true way to shed weight is to do it with sensible and logical goals and methods. Yes, you can lose weight quickly. You can achieve fast results. Just keep within the logical boundaries. Trying to lose 40 pounds in 2 weeks isn't very logical.
Choose a diet program that will help you achieve long term results. You will be happier with results that last for years than for those that last a week.
