I set up a challenge for me, since i'm overweight. My goal is lose 90 pounds in less than a year. Do you guys think I can do it?

    It depends on how much you have to lose overall. You’d be looking at a loss of 7.5 pounds per month if you spread it out over a year.

    I’ve had months where I lost 10 pounds and months where I lost 3 pounds. Fluctuations and plateaus are a normal part of the process.

    It also takes longer to lose weight once you start getting near goal.

    Yes I do think that you can do it. But you need to work on this as if it's an important project, you can't wing it or half-donkey it.
