Ways to lose pounds fast

What is the best and fastest way to lose 5 - 10 pounds. But not necessarily for it to stay off long term?

I want to lose 5 - 10 pounds in a very short time. But I dont need for it to stay off for that long, only for a few weeks is good enough. Thanks

1. Try Alli..It worked for me! Something else you can try is drinking plenty of water with just a twist of lemon (one full glass every 2 hours), and NO bread, or sugars, or fried food (junk food)...you will reduce sizes really fast, even though you weight might still be the same. When I started I was weighting 161 (looking like a 200 lbrs) and after a month I am 159 and I look like 140.
2. RUN run like hell!!!!! and don't stop until you lose those pounds and to gain them again SPLURGE OUT!
3. Change your diet. Exercise. Drink water instead of soft drinks. Eat Fruits and vegetables. Cut down on fatty foods and fast food and eat healthier foods, carbs and proteins. Of course, this is only friendly advice not a recomendation.
4. if you want to loose 5-10 pounds try sit-ups for like 20 minutes for less then a week
5. go on a fast. I don't know what long term is in your book, but fasting (drink water) is a good way to loose some lbs quikly.
6. Whatever you do DO NOT GO ANOREXIC or anything. I believe you have common sense. You should drink plenty of water, eat nutritious food, like salad and fish. Never eat oily or fatty foods ever. Not even when you are not on a diet. Exercise more than usual. Walking cuts your pounds by a lot. Help around the house, and stay away from the couch. >.~ Good luck~ ~okshio~
7. Drink plenty of water and caffeine. Actually, green tea will significantly increase your metabolism.
8. OK, *don't* use Alli, the side effects are miserable. We're talking uncontrollable diarohhea, cramps etc. The best way to lose weight is to eat smaller portions, cut out fats and sugars (no fast food!) drink lots of water and get more exercise. The first 5-10 pounds come off the quickest. Walk at least 30 min a day, at a good pace. Take the stairs instead of the lift or escalator. Eat fresh fruits and veg instead of prepared snacks.
9. I was on the special K diet for about two weeks to three weeks...and it actually worked. What you do is you each Special K for both breakfast and lunch and eat only fruits and Special K snack bars for snacks. Then you eat your normal dinner. If you go back to your regular diet...after that weight loss you'll gain it right back within that next month.
10. for fast reaction you must Ron very fast and not drinking to much water
11. no junk food - duh, and stay away from anything that is bread or from the bread group: cereal, oatmeal, toast, rice, pasta/noodles, et cetera u will lose about a pound a day. maybe more if u have a faster metabolism and/or u add exercising (at least 30 minutes a day)
12. go wheat free. No pasta, pizza, bread and so on. And no food after 7 p.m. I know a woman who lost 60 pounds a month on it. She did nothing else!
13. It's hard for older men but i'm still teen. if i have to go to a wedding next and i have to look good for chikitas in the morning before work or school or errends stretch your legs bend down and touch your toes for ten seconds if you cant keep stretching untill you can touch you toes for at least a second(it took me a while before i can get to ten it burns like heck) after that do some pushups not a lot about 25 or so it tones your chest then crunches about fifty those are important if your trying to lose your gut.then take a shower and do your buisness that was your morning .... before you go to sleep a good tree hours before play outside for about an hour basketball trapaline swimming jog at the park (i practice nunchukes) i'm a few punds over weight but doc says i'm healthy. your play time depens on how much you eat not what you eat the more you eat the more you play think of it like your car the more gas it has the farther it can go if you eat a lot sweat out the salts so they don't stay in your body. but if you have to day eat breakfast its okay to get seconds just stick make sure you eat it with juice(balance your vitamans and minerals zinc is real good it helps your immune system) and for lunch eat it with milk or water(i haven't drunk a soda in 2 or three years but i had a nestea from a soda machine cause they had no more water last summer) soda is really where you get most your impurities and they eat your teeth but yeah milk or water with lunch and it okay to snack but instead of a candy bar eat an apple or a banana or eat both shoot sometimes i cant even decide just eat a fruit and for dinner just have dinner with water then do you night exercise rinse off and sleep.
