Are you needing to lose weight fast? Maybe to fit into a cute outfit for an important event… This event being less than 2 weeks away, or in a very short timeframe. If so, I have the perfect blueprint strategy-plan for you.

If you’re anything like me, you’re probably always waiting last minute, to worry about losing weight. The goal of getting fit and fine, is often a last-minute prerequisite, for your upcoming plans. For me, it’s often right before going on vacation, when there’s only 1-2 weeks left, before departure.

I also seem to find the perfect outfits (for my upcoming trips), last minute. The gut-punch is usually that the perfect outfit only has one or two sizes left. The sizes of course being 2 to 3 sizes too small. Determined not to suffer defeat, I double down & buy it anyways. “Mind over matter! My body will comply! I will, lose this weight!” These are all the thoughts that go through my mind while walking up to the register, in blind confidence.

It’s either that or I realize I will actually need to wear a bathing suit, in public… A shocking & sudden revelation, that usually arrives right after I’ve delighted myself in a sinful, yet decadent chocolate croissant. Often paired with a glass of the palate cleansing & blissfully exquisite, Thai Tea. My eating habits really do me no favors…(sigh…but I digress)

So, being that food is probably my first, if not second love, I have learned over the years, how to get snatched (skinny), very quickly. I call it my “Emergency weight loss plan”.

Now I know what you’re thinking, and no, this strategy does not consist of starving yourself, (however a 3-day water fast is always an option). Instead, these strategies are actually sustainable, if you so choose to keep it going. How long you decide to keep it going, is totally up to you. However, I can promise, that if you can complete a minimum of 10 days, you will certainly see a significant drop in weight… and fast!

Now you may only decide to do one or two of these things. But I recommend doing them all together to see really fast results.

Strategy 1. Exercise twice a day

First thing and probably most important, you will need to work out twice a day. It has to include a 5 mile walk or run at some point. So, I would say start off with a 5-mile walk (or run/walk), followed by 20 minutes of weight training. Later in the Evening I would recommend exercising again for another 30 minutes. Doesn’t matter what your second workout is, as long as you get it done!

Strategy 2. Intermittent Fasting:16 to18 hours.

Try your best to not eat for about 18 hours, but no less than 16 hours. It will be hard initially, but your body will get used to it. It’s only for 10 days! You can do anything for 10 days!! So, for 16-18 hours… No Eating. Once you’re allowed to eat, you can do so for the remaining 6-8 hours of the day. After 6-8 hours, you’re back at fasting again. You might want to stay far away from places with sexy foods.

Strategy 3. Drink a lot of water

It’s time to flush that gut! Get all the toxins out by drinking a lot of water. Your skin and hair will thank you for it. I recommend at least 2-3 liters worth. You’re going to look so amazing, my dear!!

Strategy 4. Fat burning concoction

I don’t know what it is about this little concoction, but it really jump-starts the metabolism. Here it is: Warm water, Lemon juice, Apple cider vinegar, and a pinch of cayenne. Drink a glass of it once or twice a day. You will first see a removal of excess water weight, then after, notice real weight drop off.

Strategy 5. Get your beauty sleep!

Sleeping will not only regulate your hormones, while bringing down elevated cortisol levels. It will also repair the cells in your body. Set a sleep time alarm. Turn off all electronics (phone on silent). Read, journal, or meditate until you fall asleep (take magnesium if you have to).

Sometimes easier said than done. This step is very important. Staying up all night is counterproductive to everything you may be doing to lose weight.

It’s not worth undoing all the sacrifices you’ve already made. Staying up late just to watch another binge-worthy episode like “You” on Netflix

Instead, your goal here is the get snatched & be hot enough, that Joe would want to stalk you next!

If you decided to give these strategies a try, I’m so excited for you! Not just because you believe me, but because it really works!!!… and you’ll be ready to fit into that little black dress or suit, in record time 😉

Let me know how it goes!
