How to lose 30 pounds in 1 month?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
You can't/ shouldn't: It's nearly impossible to lose that much in a month & it would be dangerous.Fast weight loss tends to be very temporary.Studies show it's much better to aim for 2-3 pounds a month with a program you can maintain permanently.See http://www.Drfuhrman.Com/library/what-is-a-nutritarian-diet.Aspx & www.Huffingtonpost.Com/andrew-weil-md/carbohydrates-weight-loss_b_1937312.Html.Exercise is important too!
