12 pounds in 10 days?

I am running every morning, 6 times a week. I cut the calories as much as I think necessary. I am going to start tomorrow night doing 20 minutes cardio and 10 minutes sauna for the rest of the 10 days on top of the running. I am in the military and have a weigh in coming up and I messed up and got over weight. Once I make weight I will resume a more healthy lifestyle. I have tried taking exlax, but that didn't seem to help. I hate puking, so that won't work either. I started taking Hydroxycut today, we will see how that works. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

He may be able to throw you a couple of tricks of the trade so to speak. Granted it may be mostly water weight, and may weaken you a little, but it should get you close to where you need to be for weigh in. Good luck! -------------- Days go by and life drags on.....

I've done this a few times, and I have lost 10-12 pounds each time. It sounds weird, but it is attainable. You will obviously get really hungry for the first and last two days! Split up a protein bar in fourths and eat that! Also, grapes and celery are ok to snack on too! It takes commitment and determination, but you should be fine! Regardless, don't go overboard on your exercise... keep doing it, but stop if you get dizzy or lightheaded... Also, exercise on an empty stomach, IMO, makes your body go after fat stores for energy! Good luck! You will make it!
