No I would think it's pretty impossible not to mention dangerousHealth Question & Answer
It's not possible by any normal weight loss methods. Even if you starved yourself or became very ill, you probably wouldn't lose more than 5 - 6kg in this time (about 12 pounds).
Sometimes you hear of this sort of weight loss over a short period of time in people doing extreme endurance activities, or who are exposed to extreme conditions (eg someone lost at sea). In these cases most of the weight loss is due to fluid loss.
I once lost 10kg in one week, but this was because I gave birth at the start of that week LOL!!Health Question & Answer

If you are extremely obese, then massive weight loss can be done... however, there is no way to lose 28 pounds in one week if you are only slightly overweight, eating correctly, and not over exercising.
If someone loses 28 pounds in a week, they are either taking diet pills, exercising too much, or eating too little.
Weight loss should be gradual.Health Question & Answer

Not thru diet and exercise. The only way I can see a person doing that is a survival situation - strenous activity, exposure to elements, little to no food and water. Health Question & Answer
Not sure it is possible or not but no one should try to do this. It is unhealthy for one to try this. One pound a week is a good goal to set and obtain.Health Question & Answer
Yes,it's possible depending on the body's metabolism. Metabolism may differ from one person to another. Good cardio, better metabolism, and a low calorie but healthy diet!Health Question & Answer
I am not sure, but you probably can in a very unhealthy way!!!, when I was wrestling I had to drop (keyword DROP) like 25 pounds in 3 days and I did it but I felt like I was going to die because I was so physically drained!!!Health Question & Answer
if the 28 pounds was liquid, perhaps a diurectic would cause you to excrete that much excess liquid. A health professional would be able to prescribe an appropriate diurectic.Health Question & Answer
