Answer 1

The best answer is to give up them foods you like to eat to start with. Get with a nutritionist, Women have  different needs then men so I can&#039;t comet on that to much, Circut training every day or every other day for 15-25 minutes. Then try to do cardio workouts on your off days or mix em toghether.  

Answer 2

I think you can loose 2 pounds per week. But why is it so vital to loose 8 pounds by October 17th? That makes no sense.

The bottom line is exercise and healthy eating are the only way to make it work. The other poster is right, dieting doesn&#039;t work over the long term. So establish a healthy diet that is balanced. Avoid simple carbs (white bread, non-whole-wheat pasta), and eat protein with every meal. Don&#039;t eat sweets or deserts.

Exercise regularly. Walk or jog half an hour each day. I would also advise doing some strength training.

Answer 3

Yes you can absolutely loose that much by your set date. In fact you can loose as much as 20lbs by then. Here&#039;s what you have to do, burn at least 500 calories/day or more and eat about 1400-1200 calories/day, and you&#039;d be set. I&#039;d suggest the best way to burn those calories is to go swimming. It acts on EVERY muscle on your body, it&#039;s the best workout there is for a female body.
