Executive summary about Losing Weight Fast by Kathryn Whittaker

Before jumping into a diet, you must determine your ideal weight. How fast you lose weight will depend on how focused you are on your diet.

If you are moderately active, multiply your weight by seventeen. If you are active, multiply your weight by twenty. This will give you the average calorie intake you need per day.
2. Remember to eat your fruits and veggies!
3. Monitor the quantity of food you eat. Avoid high-calorie foods and eat in small portions.
