By taking potassium wasting diuretics such as Lasix (Furosemide) or inducing severe diarrhea.

Explanation:

Lasix is a drug which requires a doctor's prescription because lack of potassium in the body may result in hypokalemia which may weaken the muscles including the heart and make you urinate frequently. If you want something that does not require a prescription, then diarrhea is the way to go.
