Unfortunately, an easy way to lose weight has not yet been invented, so you will have to work hard.
Method No. 2 – “Acting Diet” for 7 days
Another way to quickly lose 5 kg in a week, unlike the starvation diet, you do not need to starve on this diet. On the contrary, the amount of food is not limited, but the choice of products is very meager. On each day of the diet, you will only be able to eat permitted foods.
- Day 1
During the first 24 hours, you are allowed to eat only boiled rice and tomato juice. Food should be without salt and sugar. How much rice can you eat? The amount of food is not limited. Eat at the first sign of hunger. However, it is unlikely that you will be able to eat a lot; dry unsalted rice is not the most delicious food. However, you should not go hungry; if you feel a “signal” from an empty stomach, you need to eat a few spoons of rice.
- Day 2
On the second day, eat only kefir and cottage cheese. Everything in any quantity, without salt and sugar! This is a more delicious diet, but not for those who cannot tolerate dairy products. However, for the sake of beauty and harmony, you can be patient!
- Day 3
Today you can finally treat yourself to white meat, but only boiled and without spices; you can’t add salt either. You can eat the broth made from chicken breast by adding herbs to it. You are allowed to drink unsweetened green or black tea without restrictions. Eat at the slightest sign of hunger.
- Day 4
Repeat the regimen of the first day.
- Day 5
Repeat the regimen on day 2.
- Day 6
Repeat the regimen on day 3.
- Day 7
On the seventh day, drink as little water as possible! Buy a bottle of dry red wine, cut up a huge plate of low-fat cheese and enjoy! It’s best to spend the last day of the Actor’s Diet at home. After all, no one knows how 0.75 liters of a cheerful drink will affect your hungry body. Don't drink alcohol or don't tolerate wine well? There is no need to force your body. Replace the wine with pomegranate juice. It’s tasty, healthy, and doesn’t make any noise in your head!

Nutrition
One of the fastest ways to lose weight is to reconsider your diet. In pursuit of a slim figure, many women often go on a strict diet. But very often radical measures lead to dire consequences.
A strict diet can cause:
- dehydration – due to fluid loss, weight decreases very quickly in the first days. But often you have to pay for this with headaches and cramps. And over time, the lost kilograms return again;
- Metabolic disorder - you cannot sharply limit yourself in food. This is a lot of stress for the body, to which it can react with the most unpredictable consequences, for example, weight may, on the contrary, increase;
- lack of energy – we get energy from food. A low-calorie diet will cope with this task poorly. As a result, during the diet you will experience apathy and lack of vitality;
- a decrease in the body's defenses - the immune system suffers from a lack of nutrients and will not be able to resist bacteria and viruses.
The most effective and fastest way to lose weight is to limit your carbohydrate intake and introduce low glycemic index foods into your diet. Limiting carbohydrates reduces the production of insulin, which promotes fat storage. Therefore, one of the quick ways to lose weight at home is to exclude potatoes, polished rice, sugary drinks, as well as fast food and alcohol from the menu. Do not limit yourself to lean meat, fish, and avocados.
Without proper nutrition, losing weight is extremely difficult.
Along with proper nutrition, you can use dietary supplements and medications that will help you lose weight. For example:
- Turboslim Day;
- the “Modelform” line of drugs, which includes a number of drugs for different ages;
- Phytomucil Slim Smart;
- Racionika Diet.
In addition, you can supplement your diet with vitamin-mineral complexes. There are also drugs that enhance the burning of subcutaneous fat, but you should treat them with caution (they can cause congestion and other side effects) and you should consult your doctor. Among these drugs are:
- Xenical;
- Reduxin;
- Goldline;
- Orsoten.
These drugs are taken in extreme cases when other methods are ineffective and are not used as monotherapy for obesity.
Method number 1 – “Hungry” diet
On the “Hungry” diet, in addition to drinking plenty of fluids, you need to eat lean chicken meat (200 g per day) and fresh cabbage salad (unlimited quantity). While adhering to this diet, always monitor your well-being. For the next 7 days, eliminate any serious physical activity from your life.
If dizziness, lightheadedness or other symptoms occur, you should stop the diet immediately. You need to return to normal eating gradually. This diet will allow you to quickly lose 5 kg in a week, but it is not safe for your health. Losing weight using this method is strictly prohibited for people with any chronic diseases. Teenagers and pregnant women should not lose weight using this diet.
Physical exercise
Moving more is a fairly effective way to lose weight, which can include simple exercises or a complex of hard workouts. You should exercise in parallel with proper nutrition and then the effect will be better and come faster.
Physical activity will help:
- maintain muscle tone;
- train the heart;
- tighten sagging skin;
- improve physical condition.
For exercise, morning exercises, short jogging, and dancing are sufficient. But if you want a greater effect and some gain in muscle mass, then turn your attention to calisthenics classes or gyms.
The degree of load can be determined independently or together with a trainer, since it all depends on your goals.
Method number 4 – fruit mix
This diet is suitable for lovers of fruits, which will become your only source of food for the next week. Weight loss with this regimen is at least 5 kilos. The total amount of food per day is no more than 1.5-2 kg of fruit. This weight loss option is not suitable for people with intestinal and stomach diseases. And even healthy people may experience problems with such a diet, in particular diarrhea or stomach pain.

Stress
And again we will talk about hormones. According to research, chronic stress can cause excess weight gain. During stressful situations, the body activates hormones, in particular cortisol and neuropeptide Y. They tell the body to store fat. They also increase cravings for foods rich in saturated carbohydrates. Therefore, when stressed, many people experience a feeling of hunger and a desire to eat something sweet.
Dealing with stress is not easy and it is impossible to give universal advice for all occasions. If you feel that you cannot cope with the situation on your own, seek help from a psychotherapist.
Many people, even knowing how to lose weight at home, do not always successfully cope with this task. In such cases, it will be safer and more effective to contact specialists.
Method number 3 - soup test
Fat burning soup, when used correctly, can save you from 5 to 10 kg! And again you won’t have to think about how much you can eat. The principle of this method is simple - the more soup you eat, the slimmer you will become. So you don't have to go hungry.
To lose weight, you will need to cook vegetable soup in water every day. The recipe is quite simple:
Take celery (350 g), onions (2 pcs.), tomatoes (2 pcs.), bell peppers (2 pcs.), carrots (1 pc.) and a small head of cabbage. Finely chop the vegetables, place in a large saucepan and cook over high heat. As soon as the water boils, reduce the heat and simmer the vegetables until tender. For taste, you can add garlic and spices to the broth. Turn off the heat and let the soup simmer, covered, for at least 10 minutes.
You will get a wonderful fat-burning soup, which you can enjoy as much as you like at the first signs of hunger. But no bread, no sour cream, or other additives are allowed for the soup.
Fat burning wraps
When losing weight, the weight comes off easily at the beginning, and after some time this process slows down. It is especially difficult to get rid of fat deposits on the stomach and thighs, as a lot of fluid accumulates there. To cope with this problem, you need to use different wraps.
There are 2 types of wraps: hot and cold. Hot water is used to enhance metabolism, get rid of salts and fat deposits. Additives such as red pepper, mustard and cinnamon warm the skin, open pores and help beneficial microelements penetrate into the deeper layers.
Cold wrap helps to narrow pores and blood vessels and drain toxins and salt deposits from under the skin. Swelling goes away, and the surface of the skin becomes even and smooth, without the characteristic bumps of cellulite.
How to lose weight by 10 kg
When losing 10 kg, you need to understand that if you do it very quickly, the skin will not have time to adapt and will sag unsightly. In addition, such rapid weight loss can negatively affect your health.
