The Easiest Way To Lose 20 Pounds In 14 Days

Personal fitness and eating right are becoming more and more popular. The problem is that we live in a lazy culture where food that is bad for us is readily available. What ends up happening is that we slowly gain weight, and then get upset when summer comes along, or a wedding comes up, and we feel the need to lose the pounds to look like we did when we were young. Losing 20 pounds in two weeks in this type of situation is not as difficult as it might seem.

The easiest way to accomplish this is to go on an all-juice diet. Some people call this the "detox diet." The way this diet works is simple enough; the large intake of juices helps to cleanse the body of toxins, while providing enough carbohydrates at the same time. This is definitely a diet for the short term; if done for an extended period of time it can have adverse health affects. If any health issues crop up during the two weeks, a health professional should be seen immediately.

A good way to supplement this diet is by exercise. Weight training should be avoided, as this builds muscle mass while adding weight. Cardiovascular exercise is the best way to lose carbs and fats. This can include hiking, biking, swimming, tennis, or numerous other activities. Try to do one of these activities for at least an hour each day. Make sure to keep hydrated while working out, especially if you are on a diet such as the all-juice diet.

Another riskier addition you can make to your diet is to add a weight loss supplement to the juice diet and exercise plan. This can be dangerous and should be researched thoroughly. The easiest way to do this is to use the internet to find the most popular supplements, and check out the user submitted reviews of the products to see how well they work and if there are any side effects you need to worry about. Once again, these supplements should not be used for an extended period of time; some of them are quite addictive and can have bad effects on your body.

Losing 20 pounds in two weeks is not impossible. It just takes a little bit of will-power, and a good bit of work. This kind of rigorous plan for losing weight should not be attempted for a long period of time unless there is strict guidance from a health professional. One of the best things about this type of plan is that it can often be a springboard to a healthier overall lifestyle after the initial two weeks are over; once you see your new body you may be motivated not to go back to the way you were.
