It is not possible to lose 10 lbs in 3 days; if you are it is likely that what you are losing is all water. However it is very possible to lose 10 lbs in 3 weeks by eating a diet of raw fresh foods. For the best results be sure to choose organic foods as they tend to have more nutrition in them per calorie that you consume. They also tend to be free of pesticides and waxes that can cause ill health down the line in the later years of your life.
Those who follow whole food, low-fat, plant-based diet consumes fewer calories. It’s not because they’re starving themselves. In fact, they will likely spend more time eating and eat a larger volume of food than their meat-eating counterparts. People who devise diet plans actually call vegetables “negative calories” because they simply do not cause you to pack on the pounds. Some fruits and vegetables like yams, cherries, chilies and lettuce are actually considered to be “fat burning” foods although in theory this is not really possible in the human body.
The reason your body is more efficient with these types of foods is because fruits, vegetables and grains are much less dense in energy than animal foods. They simply pack fewer calories per cupful or spoonful. They are full of enzymes that supercharge your metabolism!
This is because fat has nine calories per gram while carbs and protein only have four calories per gram. In addition good carbs like fruits, vegetables and whole grains contain great amounts of fiber. Fiber makes you feel full and adds almost no calories to your meal.
Lose weight diet: a realistic way to lose 10 lbs in 30 days.
This means that every time healthy meal, you may reduce the calories that you consume, digest and absorb, even if you eat significantly more food at one sitting. This has nothing to do with actually dieting. What you are doing is simply eating less and getting more power into you for each bite you eat.
The idea is to eat those raw fresh foods that pack the most nutrition at least once a day. These foods include -
- Nuts (almonds, cashews, walnuts)
- Berries (full of antioxidants)
- Lettuce (full of micronutrients that keep skin and hair beautiful and also help balance the blood)
- Yogurt (full of good bacteria to help keep your colon healthy)
- Sweet Potatoes (an amazing source of Vitamin A, Vitamin C and Beta Carotene)
- Apples (a good source of quercetin which keeps away cancer)
- Kale (this heavy dark green vegetable contains iron, Vitamin K and is good for the eyes.)
- Edamame Beans (these soy beans are rich in protein, iron and fiber and are a staple of Asian diets.
- Garlic, onions, leeks and scallions (these foods purify your blood and support every organ in your body as well as improve the immune system!
Food deprivation just does not work. The beautiful thing about a vegan diet is that you do not deny yourself food. You don’t feel hungry and get cravings.
