Dr. Pamela Pappas answered

Specializes in Psychiatry

3kg = 6.6 pounds: Losing this amount of weight is possible in 2 weeks, but you don't want to ruin your health to get there. Work with your trainer on food (plenty of protein & veggies, healthy fats and limiting starchy carbs & no sweets). Plenty of water and exercise. Your trainer can help you individually. Nutritionist may be helpful also.
