Exercise (I dunno, just 30 minut, 5 days a week would be good enough) + completely cutting out carbs.
The Atkins diet is always good for temporary weight loss.

the answer is right at your feet

lift them up and then repeat

Increase the tempo to really get going

You should really be running if you don't want your belly showing

It's as simple as that, do it everyday

Then when the con comes you'll be on your way

Without knowing your body type or your present eating habits it's tough to make recommendations. If you drink non diet soda just stop. If you eat snacks regularly just stop. Cutting out an extra couple hundred calories a day makes a huge difference in a month.

OP here. As for my body type, I'm naturally curvy. I have boobs and hips (not to mention I have big bones, since I drink nothing but milk and water), so I know a little extra fat is natural on my body type.

And my eating habits, I eat two and a half meals a day: breakfast (can range from a piece of toast to pancake platter), "afterschool snack" (between 3-4pm, can range from a 100 Calorie Pack to a sandwich), and dinner. I don't eat a lot, but holy crap I love carbs. Chocolate is also one of my vices, but I've been good about keeping it out of my diet lately. I try not to eat after 8pm.

take 1000 miligram vitamin C pills everyday. Taking the pills will make u lose at least ten pounds or more, if taken everyday till the day of ur cosplay. The only thing About it...it will make u shit...alot. BUT! it is a healthy way of losing weight...kinda...

What? How does that work?

>>1832869
Not the person who posted about the vitamin C, but apparently it does help with efficient fat burning during exercise. It's not the next weight loss wonder drug, but yeah. It helps.

is u can get your hands on some hydroxycut max/or hardcore that'll definetely do the trick for what you need.

but you need to do whatever exercise it's needed, you can't possibly expect results just by taking the damn thing and believing that's suck your fat from your flab.

when I took them (seeing how some jumpy mate went down 35pounds after a month on them) I didn't see many results.
Now......I spent 4 days eating anything next to nothing, while still taking at least one of those pills a day, and it must have gone down the toilet, but I went down 5 pounds in that week.

Now go buy some hydroxycut while it still last, or if you dun find any, get Lipo6, or sumthing like that(my friend who went doen 35 pounds? he's on those now)

Get your fat ass moving and walk some miles bitch or you wont be hot and fab for that costume, get it?

saging this shit so hard. either you diet and exercise regularly as a way of life to keep things under control or you totally fuck your shit up.

op what you're talking about is going to make you totally balloon when you end it you'll end up being fatter than when you start.

Srsly, it's like when Kirstie Alley or Oprah get their fat back (lol, backfat). IT SHOULDN'T BE A SURPRISE, it's because they are fat and must always maintain it, they can't just lose it and expect it to be gone forever, shit is like aids, you can only maintain until you die from it or something else.

OP here, and jeez, I'm not so heavy that I'm looking to lose half my body weight. I just want to get rid of about ten pounds in three weeks. Only reason I have the weight in the first place is because the weather just turned warm enough where I live that I can go out and get some exersice. Jesus.

Start exercising every day and be careful about what you eat. No sodas, no fast food, lots of water and vegetables and whole grains. You might not lose 10 lbs in time, but you'll lose some weight.

If you really want to try a crash diet >>1833063 is right though.

Basically extreme diets to make you lose a lot of weight in a short time make your body think it's starving. To protect itself from the coming famine it starts to store as many calories as it can, so the second you go off it and start eating normally all that food turns right into fat. It doesn't matter if you're 100 lbs or 300 lbs, it's just how things work.

>>1833141
I really don't want to try a crash diet. I was mostly just wondering what people cut out of their diets, what kind of exercise routines people have, etc., and what seems to have the best results. That's it. =\

>>1833163
Uh huh.
>I don't mind if these ideas are somewhat unhealthy as they'll only be used in the short term.

>>1833179
Alright, that was badly worded. I mostly meant that I don't mind more extreme suggestions. But whatever.

Thanks to everyone who's been helpful so far.
