    Hi Laura,

    Welcome!

    The journey is long, and is filled with some pitfalls, but also some amazing things along the way. Summer starts June 21; that's 20 weeks. Losing 65 pounds in 20 weeks is probably way too fast. It is a recipe for a backfire. I'm not sure how much you have to lose, but consider this:

    The best approach is to develop habits you can continue indefinitely. Once you lose those 65 pounds, you'll need to keep up those habits to maintain the loss.
