Current Events > I'm 5'4", 135 lbs, and I'm on a diet, how fast will I lose weight?

(+) Yeah! (+)

I used to eat a lot, but now I'm cutting down to about 1,500 calories / day. Also, exercising about 2x per week.

No one can give you a solid answer really. Especially based on that.

If I were to guess I'd say 2-3 A week

I need a way to lose weight fast without needing to do any of the following:

- Diet
- Exercise
- Surgery

20 pounds, 1 week.

I know one of you out there have the answer. Spit it out, now.

Do you need to lose weight? 135 is already pretty low.

Lift. You can definitely be skinny fat at that weight with how short you are. Best thing is to put on some muscle. Look up the Fierce 5 Novice program. And don't try to restrict calories, eat higher quality food instead.

I dance, and I'm not in the shape I used to be (when I was dancing like 4-6 times a week). My eating habits haven't changed since then, so I gained weight. Losing about 10 pounds would put me in a better place, I think.

you'll probably lose a few pounds the first week or two and then .5-1 pound a week after unless you are working out a lot harder than I expect.
