Any quick ways to get a few pounds off?
I have a wedding this weekend and my dress is sort of snug. I need to get like 5 lbs off and I'll be good. Any tips for my unrealistic goal?

Drink a ton of water, no salt, no carbs. Just eat veggies and lean protein.

Cut all carbs and sugar and you'll drop a ton of water weight which should get you where you need for the event.
Google Jillian Michael's Detox Water- it helps with water retention. You have to drink it for 5 days I think. It's just water, lemon, some unsweetened cranberry and Dandelion root tea- all diuretics

Thanks! I will be doing all of that. Where do you buy dandelion root tea bags?
ETA: I see shoprite sells it. Okay! Wish me luck!

i add a teaspoon of ACv to my morning tea and i feel it really helps me with the bloat.
i you're willing, i would do two meals a day combined with intermittent fasting for the next two days. make the meals a bit smaller than usual and add lots of veggies. that should help you lose about 3 lbs or so.

I had a dress that was a little snug and bought this
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B07V9BTWS7/ref=ppx_yo_dt_b_asin_title_o03_s00?ie=UTF8&psc=1
It was actually really comfortable and did not ride up at all.

I would just buy water pills. Diurex is a good brand

I did! I did the Jillian Michaels detox water as suggested. I got like 2.5 to 3 lbs off. Bear in mind I really only did it for 2 days. The dress was still a little snug but it worked!

That water is the bomb! But you pee constantly on it!
Glad it worked out.
