subject: You Can Possibly Lose 3 Pounds In Just a Few Days [print this page] I have to say, she met her goalI have to say, she met her goal. In the end, my wife did what she needed to do to lose 3 pounds in 3 days, but thankfully she did it in a way that ensured she did no damage to herself in the process. Oh, and her friend? She ended up losing a total of seven pounds for the week and my wife's weight loss was five. So while she didn't match her friend pound-for-pound, she did well enough to feel happy about her own progress. I guess, in the end, that's all that really matters.
