Anybody have tips on how to lose 20 lbs in 3 weeks? I really need to slim down.
Amputate
You'd need to have a deficit of over 3000 calories a day. So basically, eat nothing and run every day for 3 weeks

Amphetamines and starvation. Spend your mealtimes sucking off truckers for enough cash for your next dose of methamselfimprovementine.

you'd need to lose about one pound a day. one pound is exactly 3,500 calories. we naturally burn about 2000 calories a day if you get some minor exercise in. that leaves 1500 calories a day if you just don't eat.
so assuming you eat at least 1000 calories a day as to not fucking die, that'd be 2500 calories you need to lose.
you lose about 100 calories for every ten minutes of jumping jacks you do.
SO, in order to lose 20 pounds in 3 weeks you'd need to
>eat only 1000 calories a day
>do 4.1 hours of jumping jacks a day on top of that
its essentially impossible. you are not supposed to lose a pound of weight a day unless you are an extremely obese person, in which case your body could canibalize its fat with you still getting like 1500 calories a day.
aim for 1 pound a week instead of 1 pound a day. MAYBE 2 a week if you exercise while eating only 1500 calories.
why is it so important to lose the weight in 3 weeks?>
Generally it's unhealthy to lose more than 1-2 pounds a week.
