Question:
How can I lose 20lbs fast after 2 years

My insurance has approved my abdominoplasty but my surgeon will not do it until I lose 20lbs. I have only lost 10lbs in the last year and I only have up to six months to lose 20, or I will have to get another approval from the insurance. Help    — Kimberly H. (posted on November 18, 2004)

I have great success with Atkin's. I go on it strict for 2 wks and lose a pound a day. I also exercise, drink lots of water, take my vits. Get the book, see if it doesn't help you. I keep my weight in check for 4.5 years by going on this if I gain. Best of luck!

Trying doing the first phase of the South Beach diet until you lose the 20 pounds. They have really good recipes so it's pretty easy to follow.

I second the South Beach Diet idea. It works well for me, combining it with some of the pouch rules with respect to liquids (water loading, no drinking w/ meals).

You haven't stated if you are exercising. If you are working out at the same level as when you were heavier then you need to up the level and time. Keep a log of your exercise and eating. It is a true picture of your life. I know we all hate doing this but sometimes we have to do thing we just don't like. Good Luck!
