If you have an important event coming along and you want to make sure that you get rid of the extra pounds you gained while binge eating in lockdown then look no further, you are already on the right track. This article will take you through a quick overview of how to lose weight fast in 2 weeks without causing any harm to the body.

Most people tend to be overcome with frenzy when they set their minds on losing weight. They tend to go on crash diets and spend hours doing intense workouts. However, this tends to do more harm than good to the body, you might end up getting deficient in essential nutrients by adopting these methods of losing weight. Therefore, before we begin keep in mind that thinking of shedding more than 4 pounds in a week is unrealistic and unhealthy.

  1. Set a goal weight
    You will be able to focus more on your weight loss when you set your mind upon a goal weight. Being realistic and making sure that you do not go overboard, set the number around 4 pounds per week if you are looking for fast results, otherwise, 1 to 2 pounds is a pretty decent number to start with. And it will take some commitment, but with discipline, you will be able to achieve this goal.

  2. Get a calorie tracking application
    Get tech-savvy and take the assistance of caloric need calculating application, for instance, MyPlate, to calculate your caloric need based on your height, weight, and physical activity level.

  3. Record your daily calorie intake
    After getting a figure of your daily caloric intake, commit yourself to follow it strictly and note down everything that you eat in a day in the application. Track your daily calorie intake in this way. Turn towards wholesome foods like fruits, vegetables, lean meat, and healthy fats for getting your recommended daily intake of macronutrients, while staying away from processed food.

  4. Drink Water
    Water is our body’s natural asset towards attaining the ultimate health goals. Similarly, weight loss is one such goal that high water intake makes achievable. The recommended daily water intake should be about 8 glasses of 8-ounce water. It helps flush out toxins from the body and prevents unnecessary snacking and binge eating. Taking water first thing after waking up is seen to effectively start up our vital organs so that they can perform their functions optimally; it also helps in breaking down food faster.

  5. Get some physical activity
    Just relying on keeping a tab on your food intake will not be enough to achieve your weight loss goal. You will have to get moving and engage in some physical activity to burn down calories. Engaging in physical activities will help you become more active and energetic, it prevents your muscles from wasting away while keeping them toned up. If you follow a sedentary lifestyle then no amount of dieting will prove effective in helping you achieve weight loss. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends that a healthy adult individual should do 150 minutes of physical activity every week to remain in good condition.
