30lb to lose in 2 months

It's possible! Two months might be hard though.
Here's my proof it can be done in 3 months! Give it %100 and you can do it!
In 2013 I lost 30 pounds in 3 months using MyFitnessPal.
I didn't break my back doing it, and I still had thin crust pizza and beer weekly!
- Jogged/Ran for 20 minutes, 3-4 times a week
- Did light weight lifting and 30 pushups for 15 minutes, 3-4 times a week
- Consumed 1400-1600 calories per day
- Consumed 120g-130g carbs per day
I'm doing it again now, feel free to add me as a friend anyone! I share my diary etc
Besides anything else, men have a higher metabolism going in. You are probably taller, you may weigh more, you probably have more muscle. You may or may not be younger.
So yeah- it stands to reason that if you lost 30 in 3 months, the OP can lose 30 in 2/3 the time

Wow! I'm so grateful for each and everyone of you who made an effort to comment and those who doubt if I can do it. Now I'm determined more than ever to lose 30lb in 1 month0

Are you breastfeeding that 5 month old? If so, your supply is going to tank big time, as well. You can't expect to sustain a healthy supply of milk if you're.. you know... going about things in an unhealthy manner.
If not... you're still risking your health more than it's worth. You're going to end up in a hospital for malnutrition (or worse) if you seriously try to do this. Remember too, that you not only lose fat with weight loss, you lose muscle too. Your heart is a muscle. Think about it for a minute there and think about the implications that could lead too.0 -
I'm 5'7 tall and at the moment wearing size 16 UK. I'm so desperate to lose because none of my old clothes fit me anymore and I'm not looking forward to buy clothes size 16 which I'm not comfortable with it0

Seconded. I have a 5 mo old and have just started dieting again and am only going for the 1-2 lbs a week, and my milk supply is down already. You need to eat enough to make milk. Oatmeal helps.

I think you are misinterpreting what people are saying. The people who are cautioning you are people who have been exactly where you are. We know what it is like to not have any of your clothes fit, to be uncomfortable, to just want the weight gone.
People are not giving you this advice because they want to be rude or discourage you, they are saying it because they want you to succeed. Because they don't want to see you posting here in a few weeks about how upset you are from a huge binge you just had. Or asking about fad diets or pills because you haven't been able to stick to an unsustainable plan. We don't want to read posts from you asking about why you have all this loose skin or why your body doesn't look the way you want even though you've lost weight.
We want you to accomplish you goals and be able to keep the weight off. And we're willing to help if you'll let us.0 -

The *last* 30 in two months? This is probably not a good idea. In fact, it's almost certainly a Very Bad Idea.
(This has probably already been said in the three pages. Guess I'll catch up and see.)

I lost 40lbs in 60 days doing Insanity Max:30. I just started an accountability group to keep me on track while I do it again right here on MFP. You're welcome to join! Check my other posts for pics.
You lost 40 pounds in 60 days and now you're going to lose *another* 40 pounds in 60 days?!? Seems like this would be hard on your body...and hard to maintain.0 -
Hi again. I just want to make this clear. I'm happy with all the comments and I didn't see any rude or negative comment so far. People have every right to agree or disagree with me. So I truly appreciate your honest opinion regardless. I'm not going to throw tantrums just because someone doesn't agree with me duuuh! So please feel free to say anything on your mind and you can add me if you want to see my food diary. Namaste0

Lost about 30 in two months, It's not impossible just SO much determination to stay away from junk food! At least by doing it intensely for a couple months it's a much quicker process though, I need my motivation back.
Why do you need your motivation back? Were you unable to maintain the loss? Have you considered that perhaps it wasn't a lack of motivation but instead a lack of a reasonable and sustainable approach?0 -

your goal may be hard to reach...... but, Dreaming big is how big things happen. Dont listen to what the negative feedback says, work for what you're trying to do and Even if you don't meet a daily goal, keep going till you reach the final goal.
If you want to add me feel free. If not, good luck and keep working on it. It will happen
Alternatively, make a reasonable goal with a reasonable plan, adhere to it, and ride the positive momentum to the ultimate goal.
This seems like a much better plan for many reasons.0 -
If you're overweight or obese it'll be pretty ok to lose 30 lb in 2 months. If you're on the slightly overweight to average side (like ~200 and under) it'll be more difficult. With hard work I am confident that you can at least get close to 30, if not hit it exactly.0

I'm planning on Disney in March for my youngest daughters 2nd birthday. I would also like to loose 30lbs by then. (I would like to loose about 60 total) I know it's a hard goal but it doesn't hurt to try Feel free to add me!!0

You can do it!! If thats your goal shoot for it and if a few months down the line you gain the weight back quickly then you know to try something different the next time no one has the same body or metabolism find what works for you

If you have 75+ lbs to lose 2 lbs/week is ideal
If you have 40-75 lbs to lose 1.5 lbs/week is ideal
If you have 25-40 lbs to lose 1 lb/week is ideal
If you have 15-25 lbs to lose 0.5 to 1.0 lb/week is ideal
If you have less than 15 lbs to lose 0.5 lb/week is ideal0 -

This. You don't have enough to lose to have 2 lbs/week be an ideal goal, much less the 5-11 you're talking about. I'm assuming you're trolling at this point, because for you to try to lose that much that fast you'd be eating nothing. I started at your size, and it took me a over year to lose 30 lbs.... But I didn't lose much muscle, I didn't starve, I ate whatever I wanted on vacations, and I didn't surrender my wine and chocolate. You could definitely lose faster than me - personal choice - but 2 months is unbelievably aggressive and not going to happen in any sort of healthy manner.
