You have 10 days until a big event, and you want to lose as much weight as possible. You must gather your willpower when you are short on time in order to make changes to equal fast weight loss. You must increase the intensity and duration of your exercise regimen while reducing your salt, sugar and fat intake. This also will help to reduce bloating that can cause water retention.
Break a Sweat
If you are currently exercising, add 15 minutes to each exercise session. If you are not currently exercising at least five times per week, then you can incorporate additional sessions into your work week--just be sure to take a rest at least 2 days per week. It's also important to increase your intensity. This means running a little faster, lifting a slightly heavier weight or incorporating a new exercise into your routine. You can burn extra calories that equal greater weight loss by challenging the body.
Avoid High-Sugar Foods
Avoiding extra sugar in your diet can enhance your weight loss. However, sugar can be added to foods, such as ketchup, that you may not even be aware of, according to Reader's Digest. Read the label--if it lists sugar, fructose or corn syrup, avoid eating the food. You should avoid high-sugar mayonnaise and salad dressing, and choose low-sugar options instead.
Eat Most of Your Calories Before Noon
According to Reader's Digest, dieters who eat a large breakfast and other snacks before noon are more likely to eat less in the evening. Examples of good breakfast options include whole-wheat toast, egg whites and turkey bacon, according to Cosmopolitan.com.
By incorporating additional or longer exercise sessions into your day, you also can burn more calories off during the day and eat less at night. If you feel full enough to cut out a late-night snacking session, you also can reduce your overall calorie intake.
Take Away One-Third
Although you should eat a big breakfast, prior to sitting down to lunch or dinner, take away a third of the food you would normally eat--whether you store it as leftovers for another day or even tossing it in the garbage, reducing your calorie intake by one-third can enhance weight loss without making you feel so deprived that you cannot follow your diet.
