HOW TO LOSE WEIGHT HEALTHY IN 2 WEEKS Posted: 09-15-08 10:05am
One of the most popular 2-week weight loss
plans is a juice diet said to provide
detox effects. This type of diet doesn't
so much provide much of a long-term weight
loss, but when you need a quick weight
loss plan, it can help your body reduce
excess fluids for short-term weight loss.
This isn't very healthy if done often or
for the long-term, but it will often get
off a few pounds very quickly.
Detoxing with juice is believed to help
the liver get cleansed. Some believe it
will increase metabolism as well. The
thought is that the removal of unwanted
toxins will result in better overall body
function, including metabolism. Some
believe that using a juice detox as a
2-week weight loss plan is a great way to
build momentum as you transition into a
weight loss program that will have more
long-term effects. In the mean time, you
need to be sure to take some supplemental
nutrients as you will be depriving your
body. High quality multivitamins are a
must.
2-Week Cardiovascular Weight Loss Plan
For a healthier 2-week weight loss plan,
you can go heavy on cardiovascular
activity. This would require working out
at least one hour, five days per week. If
you don't have any cardiovascular
equipment, taking some cardiovascular
workout classes at a local gym or fitness
club can be a great way to lose weight
quickly. In some cases you may find that
because of muscle gain you will not lose
weight. However, muscle is much more dense
than fat so even if you do not lose weight
on your 2-week weight loss plan doing
cardiovascular workouts, you will lose a
great deal of fat and go down several
clothing size.

I completely agree. Going a juice diet is
an excellent way to lose weight for the
short term. After that it's pretty much up
to you to keep that weight off. Eating
habits are very important.
Also, I have a buddy who lost a pretty
good amount of weight over an 8-month time
span. It's all about eating low glycemic.
When you do that, the weight pretty much
just falls off. When he started out he
started with the Usana Reset kit which is
a five day program. Essentially, 3 times a
day for 5 days he was drinking low
glycemic Usana shakes, and twice a day he
was a having a snack bar in between
breakfast and lunch and then in between
lunch and dinner. In those five days he
was getting about 1100 calories a day
which is a lot of the reason he lost 7
pounds in that first week. Those first
five days play a pivotal role in the long
term weight loss though because what it
does it reset your glycemic levels to
normal.
After the Reset kit, it's all about
learning how to eat low glycemic meals. If
you want to know more, get some books by
Dr. Ray Strand about low glycemic eating.
In the end he had lost about 50 pounds in
8 months because he had learned how to eat
low glycemic. It's the same idea as the
Nutrisystem commercials everyone sees one
TV except it doesn't cost half as much
because you don't have to buy meals from
them, instead you're learning how to cook
and eat low glycemic meals.
