    That is quite an aggressive plan. I have 96 more pounds to go myself. You do understand that is about 15 pounds per month? That is going to be extremely difficult to do as soon as you get close to the 200 pound mark. You won't be able to consume few enough calories by that point.

    You're looking to do 3 1/2 pounds a week for the entire 100 pounds. I guess it would be possible if you were 200-300 pounds overweight. Cutting out 1000 calories a day is 2 pounds per week. So 3 pounds a week would be 1500 calories. Find out what the maintenance calories would be at different weight intervals based on your age and height to see if you could shave off those 1500 calories from that to keep such a large deficit. Remember you can never go below 1200 calories a day for health reasons.
