Do you want to know how to lose 12 pounds in 3 weeks? Follow this simple how-to guide and lots of excess fat will be gone in 21 days.

First off, if you’re trying to lose 6-12 pounds in 3 weeks, you’re already on the right track. Most people are looking for the quick fix – wanting to lose 6-12 pounds in 1 week or even days. While 6 pounds in a week is doable, the chances of that weight loss being mostly water weight are very high.

To truly lose unwanted fat (not just weight) you have to be strategic, not sloppy.

Lose 6-12 Pounds in 3-Weeks – The Diet

Nutrition is going to play the biggest role in helping you lose weight in a short amount of time. Below are your dietary guidelines.

This is what your meals will look like Monday/Tuesday/Wednesday/Thursday/Friday/Saturday (Sunday should be your day to treat yourself from eating this way all week, however if you REALLY want to take things to the next level, stick to a similar setup all week long):

Meal 1 – Protein/Carb/Veggie

Snack 1 – Protein/Fat/Veggie or Protein/Fat/Fruit

Meal 2 – Protein/Fat/Veggie

Snack 2 – Protein/Fat/Veggie or Protein/Fat/Fruit

Meal 3 – Protein/Fat/Veggie

The key to making meals that burn fat all day long is balancing your macronutrients, starting with a protein and choosing the right carbs and fats.

For example, a healthy fat-burning breakfast would consist of 2 scrambled eggs with spinach cooked in coconut oil, ¼ avocado, and 1 serving of blueberries.

An acceptable snack would be 2 oz. of organic cheese and 1 apple.

If you’re making smoothies, make sure you include a fat and protein.

You don’t have to count calories with this plan, you only need to be “calorie aware” trying not to over-do it on fruit mostly.

Lastly, you’ll want to avoid inflammatory foods like gluten, soy, vegetable oils, sugar, high-fructose corn syrup, and other processed foods. This will be the fastest way to get you to drop excess water weight, detoxify your body, and balance your hormones.

Remember, if you want an awesome looking outside, you need to have an awesome working inside.

Lose 6-12 Pounds in 3-Weeks – The Workout

Even though exercise is optional with this 3-week plan, I believe exercise should be a part of any health-focused weight loss plan.

Exercise, combined with the above diet will accelerate your weight loss. And no, you don’t have to spend hours at the gym. Here are your workout guidelines:

Monday, Wednesday, Friday – 20 Minutes of Metabolic Training

Tuesday, Thursday – 20 minutes of sprint-based cardio

Saturday and Sunday – Rest

Your metabolic workouts can either be bodyweight or resistance training. If you’re a beginner exercise, bodyweight will be best.

Your sprint based cardio will consist of sprinting/jogging and walking on a treadmill or outside.

Lose 6-12 Pounds in 3-Weeks – The Mindset

Aside from your nutrition, your mindset going into starting any fat loss program is extremely important. The problem most women face when starting a weight loss program is lack of commitment and discipline.

Notice I didn’t say willpower.

You’re lack of progress in the past, is NOT because you lack willpower, it’s more because you haven’t built up your skillpower.

Following this plan and downloading your resources helps develop skillpower, by learning how to eat, how to exercise smart, how to develop healthy habits, and maintain a strong mindset.

Losing weight is easy. Losing weight/fat in a healthy way and keeping it off is hard.

It takes committing a health-focused lifestyle and staying consistent with it.

Lose 6-12 Pounds in 3-Weeks – The Results

If you follow this plan as best as you can for 3 weeks, you might lose 6 or 12 pounds, you could even lose 15 pounds, or you might not lose any weight (doubtful).

But you’ll be gaining health, a restored metabolism, and a health-focused way of losing weight.

Take a minute to think about what you were doing 3 weeks ago.

Just think, if you had started this plan 3 weeks ago, you would be reading this 6-12 pounds lighter, ready to shed another 6-12 pounds or inches.

Follow this plan as best as you can and you’ll be well on your way to transforming your body to the one of you’ve always wanted.

While this plan is detailed for just 3 weeks, you can continue to follow this strategy for 3, 6, 12, or forever as long as you continue to progress and transform your body for life.
