I have a stone to lose and 2 months to do it. I'm not obese but would like to feel more confident in my skin on my wedding day and honeymoon. I'm 9stone 8lbs and would like to get to 8stone 8lbs. How much should I aim to lose each week to meet my target?

    At your weight, a stone in eight weeks will not happen without making you miserable for your big day. Aim for half a pound a week, and then pick up where you left off when you get back from your honeymoon.

    At 134 pounds, it is unlikely that you will be able to lose 14 pounds in 8-9 weeks. I would suggest setting your goal for either .5 or 1 pound per week. You can aim high (1 pound) and then switch to .5 pounds if you find that maintaining the larger deficit is difficult.

    Keep in mind that if you've already had your wedding dress fitted, losing a significant amount of weight (and 10% of bw is significant) is likely going to require you to have it fitted again.
