Im going on holiday in seven weeks and want to lose like 5 pounds plus And i would like to be able to keep the weight off., any ideas??
I have cut down on portion size, it works but i want to lose weight quicker.

Exercise as much as you can in ways you enjoy. Half an hour of badminton/squash/tennis helps me. If I cut portion sizes and exercise as much as I can it really shows.

Drink water instead of Soda or juice. Or just have a cup of water if you're in the mood for a snack.
Its worked for me.

cut back to 1500kcals per day for the next few weeks, you'll lose that 5lbs no prob
