How to Lose 20 Pounds in 2 Weeks – Mistakes

Just remember 1 thing before I continue, to lose 20 pounds in a short time ISN’T EASY. There is no “easy button”… but it is possible if you avoid some mistakes.

How to Lose 20 Pounds in 2 Weeks – Mistakes

1. Eating a lot then trying to “make up for it” on the next meal

Uh… NO. You’ll actually make weight loss harder if you eat a lot for a meal then the very next meal you don’t eat enough. What this does is it screws up your metabolism. That’s why starvation type diets don’t really work over the long run. You’ll lose weight at first, but your body comes back with a vengeance because it’s in “SURVIVAL MODE”.

When that happens, it’ll retain extra fat to help you “survive”. So NEVER try to make up for eating too much.

2. Having too much stress or not enough sleep

Listen, it’s not all JUST ABOUT calories, exercise, and diet. Other factors play a big role in your ability to lose weight. I could put you on the same diet and same exercise routine and 1 time you’ll lose 10 pounds on it and the other time you will gain 10 pounds on it.

What happened?

Something other than diet, calories, and exercise is what happened. And 2 of the bigger reasons are too much stress and not enough sleep.

Just accept the fact that if you want to have long term success with weight loss you’ll need to get enough sleep and find a way to lower your stress levels. Deep breathing and exercise both help for stress. The supplement ZMA helps for sleep.

3. Not using the power of apples

Apples are a serious weight loss food. People tend to overlook the obvious and the simple solutions in favor of more expensive and complicated solutions.

Don’t you be one of them.

Here’s a simple tip to lose 2+ pounds a month (not much, but hey, take them where you can)… eat 3 apples a day, everyday. Basically, I can’t think why a person who is serious about weight loss wouldn’t do this!

I guess you can consider it a test of how bad you really want to lose weight.

Listen, to lose 20 pounds in 2 weeks is hard… that’s a lofty goal. But it is possible… and a good start is to NOT make the above mistakes.
