    Isn't a stone like 14 pounds? If so, I don't think you're going to make it. Did they just announce the wedding?

    3.5lbs per week? You would need to create a calorie deficit of 1,750 per day! That's very aggressive, and not something you are likely to be able to do.

    Just eat at a reasonable deficit, and be happy with a smaller loss.

    I'm assuming this wedding isn't a last minute affair???

    How many pounds are in a stone? I'm 42, and just eating less calories and exercising gets it off for me. I try to eat mostly healthy, and I allow myself a little treat, so I want go insane and sucker punch somebody in the face. Calories in, calories out. Good luck!

    Wow, cool having a surprise wedding sprung on you! Sorry, but losing 14 pounds in 4 weeks is unrealistic. You will make some progress though.
