HOW TO LOSE 10 POUNDS: THIS IS THE MOST EFFECTIVE DIET FOR WEIGHT LOSS

If you are wondering how to lose 10 pounds, you’ve come to the right place. People often associate dieting with starvation and torturous feeding regimes, which is a notorious misconception as there are a number of healthy diets that deliver fast and lasting results.

For instance, let’s say you’ve decided to lose 10 pounds in one week, for whatever reason. To achieve such substantial weight loss in such a short time frame is certainly not easy, but if you come to terms with the sacrifices that come with it, it is certainly doable.

To lose weight fast, you will need to make certain adjustments to your diet and your lifestyle and adopt a healthy diet plan that will provide you with the required calorie count and all the useful ingredients that your body needs in order to function properly.

It is common knowledge that sugar does not agree with dieting so you will have to keep your hands out of the cookie jar and kick the habitual intake of snacks in between meals if you want to lose weight.

Alcohol, carbonated drinks and gluten-packed foods are also well known “diet enemies” and must be eliminated from your diet if you want to achieve the desired weight loss fast.

With that said, let’s take a closer look at this fast, seven-day diet that lists the foods you are allowed to consume to lose weight in a fast and healthy manner.

HOW TO LOSE 10 POUNDS IN ONE WEEK:

Monday

If you want to lose 10 points in a week, you will have to make a stop to your local grocery store and pick up a bunch of fruit – anything but bananas.

Fast and healthy weight loss goes hand by hand with eating fruits, especially apples, grapefruit, oranges, watermelons, pineapples and pretty much every fruit you can think off, except bananas, as we mentioned earlier. Another very important thing you need to do is keep your daily calorie intake below 1200.

Breakfast:

One cup of black coffee, no sugar, one orange and one apple.

Lunch:

A bowl of fruit salad and a cup of freshly squeezed orange and grapefruit juice.

Dinner:

Tomato salad with basil and mint and a dash of olive oil. Yum!

Snacks:

Lay off the calorie packed snacks and eat apples or any other fruit (except bananas) in between meals. Late at night, if you start to feel the cravings, don’t give up and have some watermelon. One cup of diced watermelon contains less than 50 calories.

Tuesday

The second day, and the next step to permanent weight loss, is vegetable day. Much like fruits, vegetables are known diet-friendly foods that will help you lose 10 pounds with this 7-day diet. And there is plenty to choose from.

This time, there are no limitations to the products you are allowed to eat and you can buy just about every vegetable you like.  Consume them raw or boiled, in a salad or otherwise, and you’ll have made you will be one step closer to achieving the desired weight loss.

Breakfast:

Beet and carrot smoothie. Add a dash of lemon to get rid of the “earthy” kick. Another option is a slice of whole grain bread with 1-2 slices of fresh heirloom tomatoes and a sprinkle of basil, kosher salt and pepper. You can also have any other type of vegetable smoothies that will keep you energized and hydrated throughout the day. Kale is another great option for this “veggie day”.

Lunch:

A big bowl of spinach salad. Raw spinach will do wonders for your health and weight loss. Season it whichever way you like and eat as much as you like. You can also have carrots, zucchinis, cabbage and so on. The good thing about veggies is that they are healthy and low-cal, so there is no danger of crossing that 1200-calories-a-day mark. You can download any calorie counting app to keep track of your calorie intake.

Dinner:

Have a boiled or baked potatoes with a side salad of your choosing. One potato will be quite enough as your belly will be full from all the veggies you’ll eat throughout the day. So, no worries, you won’t be hungry. The only threat will be the cravings for other ingredients, but you can deal with those, right?

Wednesday

Your quest to lose weight allows you to combine fruits and vegetables on day four of this fast and healthy weight loss diet.  Again, you can consume these products raw or boiled, or however you like.

Just remember, there is no cutting corners if you want to lose weight and one single step in the wrong direction (i.e. a single candy bar) will negate all your efforts and put you back to square one of this weight loss plan.

Breakfast:

Fruit smoothie (pick any fruits you want) low fat yogurt and some almonds.

Lunch:

A large salad, again, pick any vegetables you like, except potatoes. Season it any way you like. Again, mind the calorie count so you can munch on some healthy snacks in between meals to fight off the cravings.

Dinner:

A variety of steamed or grilled fruits and vegetables. On this day, you can snack veggies dipped in guacamole, for example. Remember to drink plenty of water and unsweetened green tea – this goes for the entire duration of the diet plan. Continue Reading  >> Page 2
