Is it possible to lose 5 pounds in 2-3 weeks?

I'm a 16 year old female who is 5'3. My original weight was 115 pounds but I gained 5 pounds so I'm 120 pounds now. I don't drink soda or juice, just water. In the past few days I've seem to be eating more junk food(cookies,chips,candy etc.) because of my period but my period has been over for 3 days now and I'm 120 pounds. I feel really sluggish right now. Would Zumba and the elliptical at the gym help me lose weight? Do you have any tips? I've been really upset lately and feel pressured because my parents say I gained weight and I better not gain weight and be fat. Any tips will be appreciated!

How to Lose Weight in Your Legs in a Week

Recommended Answer:

3 weeks could totally cut 5 pounds off. Go to the gym 1 hour 5 times the week. Eliptical, weight train, and zumba. Good luck. Make sure to keep away from red meat. And if you're eating junk food at least go to the health food store and get the better ones

• how about swimming?It's good way to make you in good shape.You'd better not to have too much junk food...It will do harm to your health(If you don't have too many time, you can just jog for about half an hour everyday, I think it will be effective).
