    Possible, Yes. It will be very difficult and possibly unhealthy, if you have a starting weight under 200 and/or are not obese.

    Too fast unless you are obese. Aim for 0.50-2lbs a week.

    Maybe. Depends on how much you have to lose and you would have to be super accurate and consistent with your intake.

    Hi Jake, since you are a 19 yo male with 89 pounds to lose, sure, it's possible to lose 10 pounds in a little over a month. However, you may wish to think of this as a marathon rather than a sprint and focus on losing safely and sustainably.

    If you eat at a slight deficit and do some daily exercise, it would be hard not to lose ten pounds for most people your age and weight.
