If you diet and exercise properly you should lose about 2-3 pounds per week, but if you are already fairly thin you will lose less than that. So maybe about a month or so to answer your question. Just remember losing weight takes months or a year. Never keep giving up.
You can use a weightloss calculator to which will take your current weight and and how much you are trying to lose and it will show you the number of minutes you need to perform your favorite activity to burn 3500 calories.
Armed with that you will know what you need to do to lose 10 pounds.

At a healthy rate would be about 6-12 weeks it could be more like 5 depending on how hard you work.
I'm sorry, but WikiAnswers is meant to be a place where questions are answered that are there to help or educate or assist a person. Suggesting a weigh-loss method that encourages Anorexia (a potentially fatal and life-endangering disease) would not be helping, but would be promoting this dangerous life style.
About a month.
it will take around 20 weeks at 2 pound a week which is the remented amount to lose a week , however at the start of a diet you will must likely lose 5 pound which will be most water weight so around 18.5 weeks to lose 40 pounds
It take 3500 calories to lose 1 pound. On average running a mile will minus you about 100 calories or so.

453.6g per pound
If you can find a good diet then you lose 2 pounds a week in for the first 4 weeks then it slows to 1 pound a week. So it will take roughly 20 weeks.
I did 20 minutes on my treadmill , 4 days a week, and lost about one pound a week.
Want to know the real weight you are weigh your self when you first get up in the morning
In general, it's better to lose weight slowly; most doctors will suggest 1-2 pounds a week. At one pound a week, it would take about a year and a half to lose 71 pounds.
3500 calories equal a pound, so if you burn 200 calories a day it will take approximately 18 days to lose a pound, assuming you're burning 200 more calories than you take in.
To some extent, yes. Anorexics have an unnatural desire to lose weight past the point of being "thin" and take it to an unhealthy extreme.
how long does it take to cook a ten pound meat loaf
* yes about 5 pounds This is wrong. There are 3500 calories in a pound. You must "lose" 3500 calories through diet or exercise to lose 1 pound. It would take a reduction of 17,500 calories to lose 5 pounds.
