How can i lose two pounds per week?

hi i'm 16 and have been on the slim fast diet for 8 weeks. i've been successful enough and am very happy with the program. in the 8 weeks i have lost 17.5 pounds healthily and i do plenty of exercise, however i've got to the point now where i am down to losing 1 pound or less a week. i understand this is completely normal only i would like to increase to two pounds a week otherwise i think i will be on this diet forever! i have 17.5 pounds left to lose and i'm currently 9 stone 3.5 pounds, and although i know this is a healthy weight, im starting a performing arts course in september and i need to be extremely fit and have a good appearence in order to feel confident and keep up with the course. any suggestions would be great thankyou xxx
Answer:
Exercise for 200 minutes a week with weight training and reduce your diet by 500 calories
just cut 7000 calories out of your diet a week, either by consuming fewer calories or by exercise or both. that will be two pounds a week.
You have to change something. Maybe take a week off from
slimfast? Eat real foods that are healthy--low fat and no fat
dairy--2 servings daily, 5 fruits and/or veggies daily, 1 serving
bread/cereal/pasta/rice/potato daily, 2 servings meat or meat substitute. Jsut watch portions on meats, dairy and fruits. Most veggies you could eat a truck load and wouldn't afffect weight. Are you drinking water--8 + glasses a day.
Avoid sweets, sodas and alcohol. Maybe try that for a week or 2 then go back to slimfast diet?
