Hello everybody! It was been my goal since I started losing weight to be 135 (my goal weight) by September 8th, which is when we go to our usual vacation in Orlando, Florida to either go to Disney World or Universal Studios. (This year it's Islands of Adventure, EPCOT, and Universal Studios all together) Right now I'm around 149 and have only 14 pounds to go! Do you think it's possible to lose that all in only two months/7 weeks? If so, mind giving lil' ol' me some tips on how to?

    its definitely possible, as long as you track your cals accurately.

    for someone your size it might not be the best to lose 2 lbs a week, but yes its possible.

    When someone gets pretty close to goal, it's usually recommended to only lose 0.5-1 lb/week. As such, while you COULD lose 14 lbs in 7 weeks, it's going to be TOUGH.

    That being said, just keep going- even losing 5-10 lbs in those 7 weeks would be great, and a more realistic goal.

    Yeah, sadly enough I' haven't been losing weight like I was, I'm slowly gaining now, I gained two pounds in two weeks. But yeah, Losing ten pounds in those two months would be lovely, I would be happy in those results. I just have no idea how to do it D:
