10 Ways To Lose 5 Kilograms In Under 2 Weeks

Whether you’re looking to tone up or are wanting to drop a kilogram or two, we’ll put you on the right track to your ideal weight goal.

March 2, 2019

When it comes to losing weight, just like everything in life, we need a little bit of inspiration to achieve our goals. Luckily, Elle Macpherson’s trainer James Duigan has come on board to shares his top tips, including his ‘Lose 5 kg in 2 weeks’ diet plan.

“Weight loss in itself is really easy,” he says. “Biologically it is – unless there’s a really hard-core hormonal or parasite type of thing going on, the mechanics and biology of weight loss is really simple.

“It’s the psychology of it that’s the issue. And also all of the mixed messages – gluten-free, low-fat.”

“Like if you’re going to have a brownie, have a brownie. Not a beetroot and brussels sprout brownie. Just go for it, do it,” the 40-year-old father of two says. “I love food. It should be celebrated. The energy you put into your food is almost as important as what you’re eating.”

Studies show that low-fat yoghurts, for instance, are loaded with sugar and sodium to make up for the blandness of having no fat. So, eat real butter, yoghurt and milk and cheese. Keep the doses small, though.
