How can my daughter lose 15 pounds in 3 weeks?
20th August, 2009
My daughter is going to be 14 in a few months and despreatly wants to lose 15 pounds in 3 weeks. PLEASE HELP!
it ain’t gonna be easy but if you’re serious about it here’s my suggested meal/exercise plan.
wake up at 7am
choose a breakfast from: bunch of grapes 2 wholemeal crackers, 1 small egg scrambled or boiled with half a slice of wholemeal toast, small bowl of muesli, slice of melon and small handful of dried fruit.
to drink: 2-4 pints of water. yes, it’s a lot, but it’s gonna help so stick to it the more water u drink the better
make sure u wait atleast 45 minutes after eating, so at about 8:30 you should be ready taking into account time to get ready first. she needs a good tracksuit and some trainers/sneakers.
run as much as possible, job occasionally and walk only when you physically can’t run anymore. do this until 12′o’clock midday.
lunch choose from: large bowl salad with no dressing/cheese/meat, slice wholemeal toast with humus spread thinly, muesli, small bowl of pasta with light tomato sauce.
to drink: as much water as possible, also try herbal teas these can help speed up metabolism.
just eat as little as possible and run/exercise as much as possible. simples [=
She can’t, and you would be a bad parent to tell her otherwise.
For safe weight loss, one should aim for 1-2 pounds per week. So realistically, she could lose up to 6 pounds in three weeks.
Include a healthy, balanced diet. Preferably 5-6 small meals per day; each meal must include protein. Exercise must include resistance training (weightlifting), as well as cardio, preferably intervals.

15lbs in 3 weeks isn’t the safest thing to do, it will most likely be water weight that will be gained back in a matter of days.
I recommend you guys doing something together; maybe taking long walks, go on a hike (its summer time!) swimming more often.
I don’t recommend a diet because of her age. I suggest she cuts down on all fatty foods and sweets, and increases her water intake by alot.
Alot of this has to be up to her, too. Her self motivation

It isn’t good that you are encouraging her…
