We just love eating so much! In our daily plans and activities, food is always on the list. Admit it, even after a workout session, you are just always tempted to cheat. However, with that being said, we don’t realize that we consume calories more than what we need for the whole day. If you’re planning to lose weight in a month or a few weeks, the first thing you have to control is your eating habit. As much as possible, consume only 1000 calories per day although you have to know too that it won’t be enough for you to function well because you’ll probably feel sluggish so it’s recommended if you’re going to avoid hard physical activities for the weeks you’re on a 1k calorie diet. But this is an option only if you’re in a hurry to lose that extra 15 pounds off your body.

So how would you keep and maintain this 1000 calories diet for a few weeks or so? Well, the best solution is to cook your own meals! Eating out on a fast food or restaurant will make you consume more than what you need because most of the time, food establishments serve huge portions. Furthermore, if you cook your own meals, you have control over what ingredients you’re going to use. For example—instead of using olive oil, vegetable oil, or butter, use a cooking spray. Olive oil is healthy; unfortunately, it’s 120 calories per tablespoon. And don't worry about the cooking being extra work for you, just focus on the results after. You'll have that desired weight you're aiming for!

Lose pounds in a month or weeks if you want but your health should still be your number one priority.

Furthermore, losing weight in 2 weeks is not really different from losing weight in a few months. So if you find yourself having difficulties in coming up with these strategies, go at your own pace and go with where your body’s going to be more comfortable.
