Do you think it's healthy to lose 15 pounds in two months?

by Lose 15 pounds on October 22, 2008

If I plan to lose 15 pounds in two months, would that be too much? Is it unhealthy? If you lose weight really fast, I heard you eventuallygain just as much or more. So do you think 15 pounds in two months like 2 pounds a week would have a negative effect on my body?

Yes, it's healthy…about 2 lbs a week is the best way to lose weight & keep it off. Eat 5-6 small meals…it keeps your metabolism going.

To help you lose weight…take your weight, divide in 1/2…& that's how many ounces of water you should drink/day.

Stick to lean protein; veggies; some fruit; whole grains, healthy oils (extra virgin olive oil; canola oil, sunflower oil), eat soy cheese, lowfat yogurt, etc.

Avoid refined/ processed foods, cheese, whole milk, carbonated drinks, regular & DIET.

Take good multi-vitamin/mineral. Omega3 essential fatty acids 3000mg with food. Drink green tea EXTRACT in hoy or cold water with meals. Both help in losing weight.

No negative effects.

Best of luck.

On the high side for good health, but it can be done with vigorous exercise and lowered calorie diet, (less fat and sugar)

A person shouldn't loose more than about three pounds in a week. If you crash diet, then you're almost guaranteed to gain the weight back as soon as you stop. The best way to lose weight is to make sure you burn more calories than you consume. So if you consume 2000 calories in one day, burn off about half of that. Always be cautious when going on a diet and be aware of what your body is saying to you. Do some research first and decide on what's best for you.
