Want to lose 12 pounds in a month...possible or nah?

Definitely possible for some, but not all. They say at a healthy pace you should only lose 2 lbs a week at most though.

Do you have a great deal of weight to lose? Then maybe.

Pound per week goals
75+ lbs set to lose 2 lb range
Between 40 - 75 lbs set to lose 1.5 lb range
Between 25-40 lbs set to lose 1 lb range
Between 15-25 lbs set to lose 1 -.50 lb range
Less than 15 lbs set to lose 0.5 lbs range

Considering that if someone is just starting out that the first 5-7 lbs is all water weight, that leaves roughly 5-7 lbs of true fat loss. If someone has a lot of weight to lose, then yes 12 lbs is completely possible the first month or so. But that sort of loss won't last, it will eventually slow down.
