    since you only have 25 pounds to lose I would say it is probably not realistic. I started with a goal of 50lbs lost back in may (started at 170, goal 120 and i'm 5'6). So far I have lost 20ish and it took me move then 6 months of eating 1200 cal. to do it, and i work out. A more reasonable goal might be to lose 12 lbs in 3 months and maybe shoot for 20 in 6 months.
    I know everyone is different but I think most people do better with goals they can achieve

    again, the size of the goal doesn't matter. If I weighed 300lb and had a goal to lose 20lb it would be crazy to suggest I can only lose 20lb in 6 months. We don't know how big the OP is.
