Here's How You Can Lose 10 Pounds In 2 Months

from: John Walker, author of Hacker's Diet:

You don’t need to buy fancy diet books, a treadmill, or expensive pre-packaged food to lose weight. Yes – all those things work, but it gets so complicated. So I’m going to simplify weight loss. It all comes down to math. Here’s how to lose 10 pounds in two months.
  • First, multiply the pounds you want to lose by the number of calories in a pound of fat. There are 35-hundred calories in a pound of fat – so multiply that by 10 pounds and you’ve got 35-thousand calories. Just remember that one number – 35-hundred calories in a pound of fat.
  • Next: Divide that total by the days you’ll be dieting. In this case, we’re trying to lose 10 pounds in two months – so we would divide 35-thousand by 60 days.
  • The total is 583. So to lose 10 pounds in two months – each day you simply need to consume 583 fewer calories.

So what does 583 calories look like?

  • It’s the equivalent of a Big Bite Hot Dog from 7-11.
  • A 2-scoop hot fudge sundae from Baskin & Robbins.
  • A Deluxe Cheeseburger from Burger King.
  • A 7-layer burrito from Taco Bell with a small Coke.
