ATIO Summer Quick Fix Challenge #2: What's your quick fix?

Posted: May 12th 2008 6:00AM by Martha Edwards

Let's face it: Losing weight (healthfully) is a long process. It's normal to expect to lose around 2 lbs a week, and if you have, say, 20 lbs to work off, you're looking at 10 weeks, if you stick to it diligently. But when we have an event coming up, be it a wedding, a high school reunion or just a day at the beach with your family, slow weight loss doesn't help; We need a quick fix.

One of my favourite tips for slimming down quickly is this one from Jillian Michaels on AOL Body: Drop some water weight with a natural diuretic. It might not seem like much, but trust me -- that little black dress will fit better. Another tip? Sit up straight -- it will instantly take 10 lbs off your frame.

We've all been there -- now take the challenge:

Share you tips! What makes you look (or feel) slimmer in a hurry? How do make sure you look your best for a big event?

We'll be sharing some of your tips on AOL Body. And, like last week, we'll be checking in with you on Wednesday to see how you did. Until then, happy dieting!
