If you want to lose a ten pound ball of fat from your belly – or ten inches from your thighs and arms – then try following these simple steps:

Step 1 – Drink a lot of water!  Make sure you drink at least a gallon a day and stay away for colas, alcohol and other fluids that will actually serve to dehydrate you.

Step 2 – Use a strongly scented toothpaste to brush your teeth with after eating and be sure not to snack on anything until it is time for your next meal.

Step 3 – Halt the salt in your diet and be aware of hidden sources of salt in sweet items like baked muffins and in drinks like frozen lemonade and Gatorade.  Choose products with less than 5 mg of salt per serving for the best results.

Step 4 – Eat raw and fresh whenever you can as these foods count as “negative calories” that are more fat burning in nature and do not cause you to lose weight.

Step 5 – Eat vegan sources of protein to reduce the amount of saturated fat that you consume every day and also reduce your carbon imprint on Mother Earth!  Tofu is a good choice.

Step 6 -  Combine high protein sources with just a few carbs at every meal to help maximize your weight loss potential.

Step 7 – Practice portion control to prevent yourself from gaining unnecessary pounds.

Step 8 -  Eat a few squares of dark chocolate before meals to help  curb your appetite – this technique will help you eat less when dinner time does roll around!

Step 9 – Cut your alcohol consumption and have no more than 3 drinks a week.   Stay away from high-calorie beers and cocktails and enjoy 1 glass of red wine instead.

Step 10 -  Drink a shot of apple cider vinegar every morning to help balance out your pH balance – this is a proven method of losing weight.

Step 11 – Substitute butter in recipes with healthy oils like canola or olive oil to cut down on the amount of saturated fat that you eat.

Step 12 – Bake treats like “French Fries” instead of frying them to save yourself hundreds of calories.

Step 13 – Do not drink sugary sweet colas or any other type of carbonated drink; even diet colas and carbonated waters can help you gain weight.

Step 14 – Have a cup of green tea every day instead of coffee. It contains as much caffeine and also helps your body get rid of excess water and fat.

Step 15 – Avoid mindlessly snacking in front of the television set; keep salty snacks out of the house and eat spiced homemade popcorn instead.

Step 16 – Eat fruit instead of sugary baked good if your sweet tooth threatens to sabotage your diet.

Step 18 -  Be sure to keep cut-up vegetables and healthy dips like chick pea dip or guacamole on hand to satisfy in-between meal urges to eat snacks

If you follow these steps diligently you should be able to lose ten pounds fast at the rate of 2 pounds a week for five weeks!
