I can't think of a sensible and healthy means to lose 40 pounds in a month.

Not to mention the fact that the more quickly you lose weight, the morse your skin will hang on you.

Please be careful. There's no occasion special enough to endanger your health

Go on the South Beach Diet. If you follow the diet 100% and workout 40 pound weight loss is possible in 4-weeks.

Wow... That's 10lbs a week! Healthy weight loss is typically 2-3 lbs a week. I think I heard that the actor Christian Bale lost a ton of weight for the movie The Machinist. Je said for him to lose all that weight, he lived on nothing but tuna fish and water. I don't remember for how long but he lost the weight.

I'm not sure it's possible to lose that much weight in such a short period of time. I am fairly certain it's not safe.

Eat a well balanced diet- but eat LESS than you normally do, and exercise.

There is no magic, no secret, no fad.. Just take in less calories than you expend.

Losing that much weight in that short a period of time is not healthy. It is bad for your heart and all organs as there will be a lot of tissue degeneration. You would essentially have the same side effects as someone with anorexia. I would suggest diet and exercise and lose the weight over a period of time for your health not because you want to look nice for a special event.

Maybe you should try the HCG diet, although even with the HCG component it still would be tough, but it's not impossible

The bigger you are the quicker it'll come off,in the beginning!!You have to cut your calories to 1200 a day and get 45 mins.of exercise 3-4 days a week.
