Question:
Is it possible to lose 5lbs in 2 weeks? How do I do that?
Answers:
Yes it is. Generally you need to burn about 4000 calories more than you eat, to loose 1 lb. Hence you need to burn a total of about 20000 calories more than you eat to loose 5 lbs. Averaging this over two weeks (14 days) means you need to loose an average of about 1460 calories per day. This can be done as a combination of reduced calorie intake and increased exercises. Reduced calories come mainly from reduction of high calories fat foods, increasing your dietary fibre, (vegetables and salad) and drinking at least 8 glasses of water daily, and increased exercise (thread mill, stair stepper, cross trainer, etc) will help you burn about 600 calories per hour.
