11 days and 5 pounds over

[boxing4ever]

ok everyone my fight is in 11 days and i currently weigh 157 and need to get down to 152. the weigh in is at 6:00pm on the 27th and you get a minimum of 1 hour and a half wait time till you fight after you weigh in. I was wondering since I already know you cant loose solid 5 pounds in 11 days what other methods could I use to get down to 152 for the weigh in? ive heard alot of hype about wearing a sauna suit the night before or on the day of the fight to loose water weigh. just need your guys advice or input about this situation

you can lose 5 lbs in 11 days....

go on a stricked tuna and protein shake diet for a few days. you eliminate all the carbs and fat and are guarantied to lose the weight. and if you're still 1 pound over which you shouldn't be, dehydration will do the rest.

no if you stick to cuple off protein shakes an cans off tuna you will lose since its very little kcals.

stay away from salt,sugar, fat and strong ****e since it hold on the water.

every g of carbs you consume causes you to hold 3g of water, but you do need them to survive, so id eat jack early in the week & slowly reintroduce them so you are still fuelled for the fight.

i do not recommend saunas n the day or hard dehydration, as your brain is majority water & dehydration causes swelling, it can affect you "chin". take a herbal laxative & a herbal diuretic & on thurs & fri & hit the sauna on these mornings, you'll lose about a kg of waste & some extra cellular water. Do not stop drinking water during this time, the more you drink, the more you'll lose.

By the way, tuna is pretty much protein & fat. To my knowledge, fat does not cause you hold water, sodium (salt) & carbs do, so avoid them. You can also try something like the velocity diet for a few days, which takes the thinking out of only consuming protein & fat meals.

Another trick is drink 12l of water on tues, 8l on wed, 4l on Thur & none on Fri - this will trick your body into excreting more water than it is given.

canned tuna has like 0.5 fat per 100, so no your wrong.

the water tip could help though

5 pounds in eleven days is easy enough to do.
jogging alone will be ample.
strickly tuna and salmon down the stretch though.

**** eh - according to calorieking tuna has 2g fat per 100g. i always thought it had more! i consume about 30g fish oil a day...
