    When I started I was 5'5 185 pounds and it took me about 7 months to lose 42 pounds. At the time I wasn't really exercising at all and I was eating around 1400 calories (desk job)with a cheat day on Saturday going up to ~2000-2200 calories.

    You sound like you got a good plan down! Weigh your solids, measure your liquids and log everything accurately and you'll be at your goal in no time!

    The guideline is 1 to 2 pounds per week. So, approximately 6 pounds per month. At that rate you should lose 47 pounds in approximately 8 months.
