Easiest Way to Lose Weight
Want to know how to lose 10 pounds? Well here’s a case study using myself and my twin sister where we both wanted to lose 10 pounds. Now before I begin, if you read some of my articles you will know that I’m not a fan of diet plans, or using crazy tactics like starvation or weight loss diet pills to lose weight fast.
However, one diet plan that I do like and recommend that helped me to lose 7 pounds in two weeks is the Special K Diet Plan. My sister tried the Special K challenge as well, but she substituted the cereal for oatmeal (not instant) which is totally fine. OK…here goes the case study:
However, one diet plan that I do like and recommend that helped me to lose 7 pounds in two weeks is the Special K Diet Plan. My sister tried the Special K challenge as well, but she substituted the cereal for oatmeal (not instant) which is totally fine. OK…here goes the case study:
Me
I started the Special K diet plan for the two weeks and as stated in the challenge, I ate 5-6 meals per day, which I had no problem doing because I was definitely hungry all the time. Also, I drank lots of water and I exercised with a weight loss workout plan on an average of 3 times per week. However, by no means do you have to a fitness routine in order for the Special K challenge to work.
My Twin Sister
She started the Special K diet plan the same time as I did. As mentioned, she used oatmeal instead of the cereal because she found the cereal to be too bland (oatmeal helps you to feel full and actually has fewer calories). My sister used the P90X as her weight loss workout plan for the two weeks and worked out every single day. However, she would only eat 2 meals per day because she claims that she wasn’t hungry.
Results
I lost 7 pounds after the two weeks. My twin sister….she didn’t lose anything (although with the P90X she lost inches and has more muscle definition)
After I got off the Special K diet, I continued to watch what I ate, I made sure I would count calories, and I exercised with a weight loss workout plan at least twice per week where I lost an additional 3 pounds. Overall, I was able to lose 10 pounds in four months.
The reason why it took me four months to lose 10 pounds is because I was not trying to lose 10 pounds in a week or lose 10 pounds in a month. I’m wanted to be realistic with my weight loss goals because I knew I would quickly gain all the weight back once I resumed my regular eating habits.

Here’s the Reason Why I Lost Weight and My Twin Sister Didn’t
The reason why I was able to lose 10 pounds and my sister nothing is because I aimed to lose weight naturally, but most importantly, I ate 5-6 smaller meals every day. Where this myth comes from that you have to skip meals or starve yourself in order to lose weight I have no idea.
Skipping meals, starving yourself, crash diets, and diet pills are the worst ways to lose weight! Whether your desire is to lose 10 pounds or lose 50 pounds, the key to shedding those unwanted pounds is to actually eat and lose weight naturally over time. I know many dieters don’t want to hear this because they are looking for ways on how to get thin fast, but the truth of the matter is that in order to get the body you want and have lasting results, you can’t try to lose weight quickly.
Would I have liked to lose 10 pounds in a month or two? Sure, but I didn’t want to stress about it and I wanted to slim down with little effort while still eating the foods I enjoy. That means, I portioned controlled my meals; I made sure to count calories of everything I put in my mouth, including beverages; I ate 5-6 smaller meals everyday; and I stayed active with a fitness routine at least twice per week.

My sister is going to start the Special K diet plan all over again for two weeks to initially lose 5-7 pounds. At my suggestion, she will eat oatmeal in the morning for breakfast, cereal for lunch, and healthy snacks in between meals. For dinner she will eat what she wants by making sure she portion controls and count calories, and she will drink lots of water throughout the day.
If you follow what I’m suggesting to my sister or do what I did in my Special K diet review, you too will be able to initially lose 5-7 pounds in two weeks. After that, continue eating healthy to lose weight, eat 5-6 smaller meals including breakfast, and make exercising a regularly part of your lifestyle. If you follow these tips and lose weight naturally without trying to slim down using crash diets, diet pills, or starvation, you will get the body you want and have lasting results.
