Lose weight in only 10 days on a 10 day diet

What you really want to know is will a 10 day diet work, or is it just a bunch of marketing BS which the Diet Industry want us to believe so they can sel their latest wonder diet pills and diet supplements.

Of course you are going to be cynical and I would be too if I wasn’t the author of a best selling diet ebook Lose 10 Pounds in 2 Weeks but I can tell you from the hundreds of satisfied clients I have had tell me a 10 day or 2 week diet if you prefer can really work for you.Provided of course it is safe, nutritionally balanced and you should for good measure include a light exercise routine.

Have you looked at yourself in a mirror recently? If not I want you to next time you have a bath or shower to take time to look at yourself. Are you pleased with what you see or horrified? How do you look when you look at your naked body in a full length mirror?

Infact if you seriously want to lose weight you will need to either buy a full length mirror or a camera as this will be far less disheartening than a set of scales.How does it make you feel are you happy or sad at what you see (not what you think you see but what is really looking back at you in the mirror).

When you look at yourself looking down on yourself you look bigger than you really are the birds eye view emphasises the size of you and makes you look much fatter.In addition if you wear clothing which is skin tight and you don’t have the figure for it you will look huge and overweight but a change of outfit could make all the difference.

After some heartfelt thinking you have come to the conclusion that maybe you really are a few pounds heavier than you would like and if you are going to look good on the beach or whatever you are going to have to do something about it.

It might have been a couple of months when you knew you were going to need to be ready for the special event but before you know it life gets in the way and you find yourself having a couple of weeks to lose around 8-10 pounds so you can get into that bikini you brought last year.

If you like a lot of people this next step is where you go wrong because you automatically assume you have to stop living to lose those pounds and you start living on a fraction of what you were eating before you decided to diet. Virtually overnight. Which means by about day 4-5 not only are you starving but you are feeling sick and miserable you are hardly geared up to go on vacation are you?

It doesn’t matter whether you are getting married and trying to squeeze in to your wedding dress or planning a honeymoon to Hawaii or just going to a family party the result is the same by the time you have starved yourself for a couple of weeks you don’t even want to go out let alone go out and enjoy yourself.

So lets back track you’ve decided you want to lose 10 pounds but if you lost 6 or 8 pounds would it really be that bad? Of course not don’t obsese with what the scales tell you and let your eyes guide you (remember the mirror) Now just close you eyes a minute and imagine this ...

How much more stunning and brimming with self confidence you will feel when your wearing that sexy dress or pretty bikini, think of all that attention and romance you are going to be getting when your partner gets a sight of your stunning new look and if your single you’ll be fighting the guys off.

Well was that more motivational than thinking about losing weight of course it is and this combined with a healthy eating plan and a mild but effective exercise regimen is all you need.

Seriously you don’t need a wonder pill and you don’t need to spend your entire life at the gym just follow a good 10 day diet or even a fourteen day diet what’s 4 days among friends and you will see amazing results.
