Lose weight in 2 weeks?

Hey, does anyone know of a quick diet that lasts around 2 weeks long, where one can lose half a stone or more? I know its not healthy, but i really need to lose weight and then after i lose the big chunk, i can go on a healthy eating "diet" and try and maintain it. Please, any suggestions?

The Atkins diet is good for big chunks of weight. My mum loses a stone in 2 weeks on it. But you've got to do it strictly to lose that big amount.
How does the atkins diet work?
How does the Atkins Diet work? Remove anything thats good for you and survive on nothing....Avoid it at all costs!
No. Dont do that.
OK. Ill tell you how.

Run for 20 minutes every day continuously (if you are used to excercise then up it, but if you were you probs wouldnt be asking how to lose weight). The best time to do this excercise is first thing in the morning.

Eat two meals a day. Have one reasonable sized portion of whatever your meal is. It doesnt matter what it is. If it's pasta, have a reasonable bowl of that. If it's a roast with all the trimming, have a reasonable amount of meat and each vegetable. The key is not to NOT eat something.
Dont have desert obv.

If you are hungry outside of meal times have some water and a piecw of fruit. Have some fruit for breakfast.

I guarantee you will lose a lot of weight like this.

Cut out all carbs and eat all meat so the body takes the energy out of the fat in your body. Or something along those lines.

Is the special k diet good? I might try that. I want to lose about half a stone.
I lost half a stone in about a month but the way it happened isn't the best....

Heres a plan, don't eat for two weeks. :indiff:

Failing that, aim lower. Don't expect to lose that much in two weeks, its just not healthy, mate. "Quick diets" don't work, you will gain the weight back again.

I agree, and don't rush to lose weight take things slow.
She said in the first post that she wants to lose weight quickly, even if that might mean being unhealthy. She is aware of the risks so stop moralising.

Okay i understand now.
Yes, I know the OP said that. I did read the first post.
Its just an rather stupid target to aim for.
Short of starvation, I doubt the OP will lose that much weight.
Where is the assumption the OP is female?

Why do you want to lose that much weight?

Yeh, it is possible to lose that much weight. God bless you Atkins diet.

I dont know whether to go Atkins or Special K next week. I'm getting frustrated with losing weight slowly and just want to get rid of half a stone or so quickly. Which one shall I dooooo? The special k is nice and straight forward so maybe that but its boring.
Atkins is a bad idea, mate. It can cause lots of health risks, you can't just cut out a food group from your system, it doesn't work like that.

"What is the point in a diet where you can eat 2 steaks and 1lb of bacon, but you can't eat an apple, becuase apples have carbs"?

Best idea to lose weight - eat less and exercise more. Break up what you're eating into 5 snack type meals, eat little and often.
Don't cut anything out of your diet - its all about moderation.
