You can do it, just remember you want to lose 0.5-2 lbs/week.
Here some tips that maybe helpful for loosing weight:
1- Protein: Get enough amount of protein. If fat loss is your goal, you should consume 1 gram of protein per pound of lean body mass, or 0.6 grams per pound of body weight.
2- Caloric deficit: you need to be at a caloric deficit in order to lose weight. 0.5-2 lbs /week is a healthy weight lost. Remember our bodies are very good at survival, if you do a very big of a caloric deficit you may ruin your metabolism and you will stop losing weight.
3- Hydrate!!!!.
4- Fiber: for ladies is 25 grams, for men 40 grams
5- Workout: Find something that you like and do it 80% of the time, 20% something you don’t like, the reason why is because what you don’t like to do is what you need the most. If you don’t like cardio, then you need cardio the most, if you don’t like core exercise is because your core is week. Make sure you add strength training!, the more muscle you build the more fat your will burn while resting.
