How to Lose Weight in 6 Days Without Drugs

Whether you have a wedding or a high school reunion coming up, you need to lose weight--and fast. If diet pills make you wary, there are plenty of natural tricks that can help you drop those extra pounds quickly. The only catch is that a diet like this is not sustainable in the long term, but it will get you the results you want within the week.

Instructions

• 1

  Start your day with a small meal, such as a yogurt or fruit smoothie with water as a base, that will get your metabolism going, but will not weigh you down.

• 2

  Load up on leafy greens. Make salad your meal for lunch and dinner. Use a fat-free or low-fat dressing and only include vegetables that are similarly low calorie, such as cucumbers, peppers, and carrots.

• 3

  Drink lots of water. Keep a water bottle with you at all times. When you feel a hunger pang, take a big sip of water to make sure that the problem is not just thirst.

• 4

  Cut out everything fattening from your diet such as snack foods, candy, bread, pasta, pizza and even healthy fats, such as avocados and nuts.

• 5

  Snack on vegetables and fruits, such as carrot and celery sticks, and skip the dip.

• 6

  Exercise as much as possible. More than one hour per day is not recommended unless you are an athlete in training, but one hour of heavy cardio will burn a lot of fat and calories.

• 7

  Eat vegetables as your carbs instead of grains such as pasta and crackers. While under normal circumstances, they will not provide sufficient energy, they do contain enough carbs to keep you going for the week and they are much lower in fat and calories.
