Of course you are going to be cynical and I would be too if I wasn't the author of a best selling diet ebook Lose 10 Pounds in 2 Weeks but I can tell you from the hundreds of satisfied clients I have had tell me a 10 day or 2 week diet if you prefer can really work for you.Provided of course it is safe, nutritionally balanced and you should for good measure include a light exercise routine.

Did you know a diet can transform the way you feel about yourself and make changes in your life you never even dreamed of. How do you feel about yourself at this moment do you look a bit over weight fully dressed (it could just be your wearing the wrong type of clothes) let's take it one step futher how good do you look naked.

I find people who step on the weighing scales always feel that they are being cheated if one day they weight 1-2 pounds more than the day before it happens so don't worry. If you want why not give my method a try either use a mirror or take a digital photo of yourself every 3 days it really works wonders as you will see gradual changes that the scales might hide.

When you look at yourself looking down on yourself you look bigger than you really are the birds eye view emphasises the size of you and makes you look much fatter.In addition if you wear clothing which is skin tight and you don't have the figure for it you will look huge and overweight but a change of outfit could make all the difference.

After some heartfelt thinking you have come to the conclusion that maybe you really are a few pounds heavier than you would like and if you are going to look good on the beach or whatever you are going to have to do something about it.

When you first thought about going on a diet you had a couple of months to lose the excess pounds but some how time has run away from you and you are still at square one with only a couple of weeks to go.Now you are going to need to lose 10 pounds or so in 14 days or even on a 10 day diet.

I find so many people screw up when they try and lose weight in a short space of time.Most people for some crazy reason just assume if you stop eating the weight will drop off.Ok maybe it will to some extent but by about the first half of week one you will be irritable, unhappy and starving. Hardly sets you up for a great vacation or party does it?

Maybe your planning to get married or be guest at wedding or prehaps it's just a party you have been looking forward to for weeks by now if you have been starving yourself or following a wacky diet you are fed up and can't be bothered with anything.

So lets go back you've decided you want to lose 10 pounds but if you lost 6 or 7 maybe 8 pounds would it really be that bad? No of course not don't worry about what the scales tell you and let your eyes guide you (remember that mirror) Now just shut you eyes a minute and imagine this ...

You'll be feeling sexier, more stunning and full of confidence when your wearing that sexy little black dress (LBD) or pretty colored bikini, think of all that extra attention you'll get and how hot and turned on you are going to feel when you are with your partner knowing how good you look. However if you been single for ages you better get used to having a lot more attention as well after all your'e a hot babe now.

Are you excited by that being a possibility much more enticing than thinking about diet plans and eating rabbit food. Don't think of the diet as being important, it isn't all it is is the route to your ultimate destination and knowing how good that will feel will get you there.

I know it's hard to believe but your motivation is far more important than your diet if you truly want something badly enough it is not possible to fail a 14 day diet or a 10 day diet it really won't make any difference if your hearts in it.
