    No! There are 15 weeks left till Christmas. At your lowest possible allowed weight loss, you would lose 30 pounds, and that is...mathematical. Fat does not know deadlines. Soon I will be losing 40 pounds in the course of a year. I had my plateaus, my ups and my downs, you won't lose weight the way you calculate, this much I learned. Good luck tho ;)

    I might need to reset my expectations at some point, but for now 40 lbs by Christmas is my goal.

    I think that is a great, realistic attitude.
  • My boyfriend will eat nothing but eggs for a week and will lose 5lbs by the end of the week. Breakfast lunch and dinner! Guess u gotta be an egg person.:smile: good luck
