Do you have a girlfriend? Have her dump you. That usually makes you lose your appetite.

On a more serious note, if you drink any pop, cut it 100% out of your diet, and drink a lot of water. It will keep you full, but is just water weight, that you can drop with cardio. Run your ass off. When you think you're tired, KEEP GOING! If you are going to a salad diet, atleast make it a spinach diet, so you have SOME nutritional value.

Well the fastest way is amputation but that is not what your looking for I think
If you weight too much the military will do a body fat percentage check. If you are in bad shape they will send you to fat camp and you will hate it. I would say the fastest way to lose the weight would to run. Start out a 2 miles a day and go up a mile every 5 days till you hit about 5 miles. That will also help you in basic training.
what branch are you going into?

That is how you cut 15lbs. in a day. It is all water weight. As soon as you start drinking again, you gain it all back. Since weigh-ins are not on the same day as the fight, the fighters can cut it, weigh in, and gain it back before the fight.

As was already stated, diet, excersise, blah blah blah.
Or coke. My ex lost a ton of weight when she was on coke.

you just gotta do it to pass a physical??

you can always cut weight like a fighter before they weigh you. you should easily be able to shed 15lbs of water weight.

15lbs of fat in a month is alot...i kept a average loss of 12lbs a month for 6-8 months, technically i was starving myself.

I did this a few times. Typically lost 15 to 17 pounds the first week & I think it's time to try it again. It was cool because just when you feel like your body needs 'something', it's on the menu for that day.

Dressing up the soup every few days is a good idea. Among my favorites:

1. Add medium Pace picante sauce (especially nice because of low sodium)
2. Soy sauce
3. Worcestershire and/or BBQ sauce
4. Lawrey's season salt
5. your favorite seasoning/enhancer here

Good call frenchie!


Must be that jumbly-wumbly thing happening again.

MIND YOU THIS IS VERY DANGEROUS
Tricks I learned wrestling, NCAA style!






fighters almost always do nothing but lose water weight, that they gain back within a 30 minute period. and if you're losing weight but you can't sleep because you're so hungry, that's BAD NEWS. you don't want to start boot camp malnourished, and they want you to drop the weight for a reason, don't cheat the system.

I'd say the "eat small, eat often" works well. eat as soon as you wake up, but not for 2-3 hours before sleeping. go for a run (1-2 miles, pace depends on your fitness level, but PUSH yourself, really push) a couple times a day, like 2, 3 if you can handle it. situps wont do squat because they're a muscle building exercise and in 30 days you wont build enough muscle to burn fat by doing situps.

on that note, pushups, pullups, squats, any kind of weight lifting would be a great addition to the cardio/diet changes. one pound of muscle takes 30x more calories to maintain than one pound of fat, so if you start building muscle it kind of snowballs.

what branch are you trying to join?

15lbs in a month is very doable.

But it sounds like you are also very out of shape. You will need to increas your cardio in order to get through Basic. Ensure you can do 10 good push-ups before you start Basic and you will be OK. If not they will bounce you out of Basic and into a 4-week or longer fat-camp.




Everyone is different. I started my own Atkins type diet at 235 lbs. I ate 3 double cheeseburgers without the buns every day at mcdonalds. In 3months I was 178 lbs. ZERO EXCERCISE. I suprised a lot of people. A lot of fatass haters too. "its unhealthy" blah blah. Its a lot more unhealthier to be a fatass
