hey peeps ...

I have 3 weeks and 2 days till my holiday . Do you think loosing 7lbs in this time frame is realistic ??? I'm 4ft 11. I'm going to stick to 1200 CALS daily and go the gym at least 4 days a week . I need inspiration !

    It depends how much you weigh and ho much you have to lose. If you were obese and still had a lot of weight to lose, 7lbs in three weeks is possible. If you're closer to a healthy weight range...not in a healthy way, no. You might lose a lb or two.

    If I have an event coming up I cut back on sodium and drink plenty of water to minimise bloating and water weight. That's about all you can reasonably achieve in the short term.

    If you're only starting now - yes - only because the first 4/5 pound you lose will be water weight.

    7 lbs is doable - but not really realistic.

    I'm also 4'11 so I know that EVERY pound shows, sorry I can't give you better news.
