    Probably best in the health and fitness forums but I might get a lecture there! AH is the busiest forum too so will attract more interest.

    Need to lose at least 7lbs ASAP. What is the quickest way to do this?

    Looking forward to serious and AH responses :)

    Something to make you **** and piss yourself, and a lot of exercise while wearing tin foil and aran jumpers. And enjoy yourself.

    Eat raw chicken.

    Or eat less and move more.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 13,295 ✭✭✭✭Duggy747


    Have a good poo.
















    It's a light snack and the taste will help you lose your appetite!

    Eat 4 quarter pounder burgers.
    Wash down with some blended butter with a dash of hot sauce.
    Lick toilet bowl in a public bathroom.
    Eat 4 (not 3) raw eggs, including the shell.
    Eat 1 raw chicken breast.
    Wash down with milk that has gone past it's expiry by 7 days and is fairly lumpy.

    You'll easily shed 8lbs with all the sh*tting and puking.

    Go outside and run about 290km at an easy pace.

    Walk. Add a 20 minute walk every evening to your schedule, and you'll be surprised what a bit of a stroll can do ;)

    Diuretics ≠ laxatives


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 8,635 ✭✭✭Pumpkinseeds


    High protein low carb diet. But be prepared to feel like death for about 3 days.

    whether it's pee or poo, i'd rather not be covered in it....

    Thank you though, genuinely learned something new today!

    I was never a fan of diets until this came along. Believe it or not with this exact diet the more you eat the more weight you lose. It was designed for cancer patients going under the knife. Two family members have utilised it with great success.

    1. Find the section of weight you wish to loose.
    2. Attach padlock to said section.
    3. Wait approximately 5 minutes for weight to be stolen by randomer.

    Result: Weight will have suddenly disappeared. Will cost you one padlock.

    Put the 7 of them in a bag. Throw them over the wall of the local lbs rescue.
    Lbs is code for puppy's yeah?

    Obligatory AH solution:

    Yokes.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 8,453 ✭✭✭ceadaoin.


    Eat as little as possible, drink loads of water, and exercise.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 5,063 ✭✭✭Greenmachine


    Take off your winter boots, clothes, and shave your body hair. If you are still short on your goal, have a castor oil enema.

    If you have it to lose then just eat nothing for 3 days and then EAT very VERY little on day 4 and 5 to keep it off.

    To get you started. Donate a pint of blood, probably weighs near enough a pound.


    Amoebic Dysentery is a great way of loosing weight. OK not so much great as in fun, more great as in better stop loosing weight real soon.

    I lost 80lbs in 5 weeks and ate a take out everyday as my reward. The take out was my only meal of the day for said 5 weeks and I simply walked it off. I had time though, I probably spent an average of 5/6 hours a day walking....same kinda pace as killinascully gang. I transformed so rapidly relatives/friends/locals whatever were not recognizing me. 7lbs should only take a few if you can spend a few days walking no joke

    What kind of take away did you have? A lettuce leaf? Were you very overweight? Have you kept it off?

    36kg in 5 weeks...an average of a kilo a day for 35 days.

    That doesn't sound possible, and it couldn't be healthy.

    That can't be healthy, what was the calorie intake from that take away? Personally this sounds like a very silly way of losing weight.

    Congrats on the weight loss. You must have been morbidly obese to lose so much in such little time.

    Walking in an excellent way of shedding the lbs, but you should never reward yourself with a takeaway everyday, unless it's something healthy. Most people that try your method will put all that weight on rapidly within 6 months of losing it.

    The best way of losing weight is to start walking for 30min a day, nice steady pace. As the lbs drop off you'll need to do more than 30min or make that 30min more intensive, you'll be burning less calories for the same workout as your weight decreases. Diet is very important, food shouldn't be seen as a reward, you should treat it as fuel for your body.

    Few tips I've found handy: use public transport instead of driving, this will generally keep you more active, always use the stairs, walk to the shops, get a nice mix of fresh fruit and veg but don't overdo it on the fruit, drink plenty of water. Cut down on white breads, eat lots of fish, max of 1 takeaway each week; you'll get to a stage where you don't want them at all. Cut down on booze, when you're hungover you crave crappy foods and you're less likely to do your daily exercise.

    I lost 50lbs, but it took me just over 6months and a complete change of lifestyle.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 883 ✭✭✭somuj


    Ya can loose a stone in 2 weeks by eating only green veg and as much of it as your able. Stuffs you up too. No hunger pangs. Cravings for other food groups tho.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 3,163 ✭✭✭Shrap


    Simple diet - take all sugar out of your teas/coffees/breakfast/snacks/drinks. Go low on the "natural" sugars in fruit/juice. Reduce all portion sizes during meals. Then walk 30mins a day at as fast a pace as you can manage. You'll be doing this right if you get a stitch in your side! You could drop 7lb easy (requires willpower...).

    Sure you can, but it's seriously unhealthy. No protein, no fat, no carbs.


  • Moderators, Arts Moderators Posts: 896 Mod ✭✭✭✭Fuzzytrooper


    My friend Stabby McHobo can help. How much blood equates to 7lbs anyway?


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 883 ✭✭✭somuj

    Not really. Your body will be burning its own fat for energy. No need for the carbs then. Plenty of nutrients in the veg. So long as its not all the time. Won't do a bit of harm. Cutting back on protein and regular fasting has amazing benefits for your body. Some fascinating research been done on it.

    I think Michael Mosley did a horizon episode on it a few years ago. Its probably available online.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 16,202 ✭✭✭✭Pherekydes

    Huh?

    All vegetables have fat, protein and carbs.

    For example, sprouts have about 0.3% fat, about 3.4% protein and about 9% carbs.


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 10,839 ✭✭✭✭padd b1975


    Go for a colonic irrigation.

    Obviously you won't lose the seven pounds by doing this, but by removing any bloatedness, you will give the impression that you have.

    I presume you need this emergency weight loss in order to fit into a suit/dress?

    I thought there was a general consensus that this didn't have any physical benefits at all.
