30 lbs is alot of weight, and I HIGHLY doubt that you could lose so much in such a short amount of time. If you lose at a healthy rate, you should lose 2-3 lbs a week. So in order for you to lose 30lbs it should take around 15 weeks.

Yes, you can. However, I read that some of the "healthy foods" you're eating every day are making your fat cells sick, and making it impossible to lose weight very fast. What do you think about this? if you interested mail me at bhojanigopalgmailcom

Maybe you've got a beach vacation coming up this month (hello, swimsuit!), or there's a special occasion on the horizon and you want to look your best. So you turn to Google and query: "How much weight can I lose in three weeks?"

The answer? Unless your health is at risk, it's not safe or advisable to lose more than about 6 pounds in that timeframe.

If you were hoping that number would be higher, keep this in mind: "The body gets used to being a certain weight and wants to maintain that, even if it's an unhealthy number," Wesley Delbridge, RDN, registered dietician and spokesperson for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.

I don't know, but you may be able to lose 30 pounds in 3 months if you are 5 ft 5" and 188 pounds!

Technically, you can lose weight in one day. It depends on how much weight you want to lose. But yes, you can lose a significant amount of weight in three weeks.
