Caveat, I am no a light weight so my personal experience is with myself and other super-middle to heavyweights losing weight. [I can drop 4 kilos in an 1 1/2 hours without much stress and recover in a couple of hours but it is all water and that doesn't count for really making and holding weight.]

half a stone in 90 minutes and have NO side effects? I doubt that.

To be accurate, I said "with little stress" and "recover in a couple of hours" so obviously there are SOME effects to recover from, but basically I can still fight even right away.

I have done this many times, and not for the purpose of weight lost, just because I sweat really healthy and easily.

The most I have recorded lately is 9 1/2 lbs even at age 57, although I suspect I could do a bit more.

Once did 12 lbs in less than 24 hours for a wrestling match (40 years ago) and won (not planned, had to wrestle in place of an injured team mate who was hurt the day before the match.)

And please remember, I am not advocating this, just stating a fact and pointing out that this is all water which will be gained back almost immediately -- to lose real weight takes time.

The only reason I am even responding again is because of the words "I doubt that".

When I make a statement of fact from experience, never doubt it.

reminds me of the people who know someone who smokes 100 a day, never got ill and lived to 98...

never doubt that causing your body to rapidly de-hydrate is unhealthy. Lots of doctors/nutritionists don't consider the 24-36 hours for boxers to rehydrate to be enough.

One thing I learned years ago to cut weight was to lay off anything that had sugar or artificial sweetner in it....especially soft drinks like colas. You can get natural sugar from fruits. I had hit a wall on losing some stomach weight and when I went to this suggestion from a trainer--it worked for me. Hope it helps. Good luck! PS: (I confess that I did cheat around Christmas and Birthdays, but I worked it off)
