Hi, I'm relatively new to weight loss, but have started taking it seriously recently. I have a cousin's wedding to attend on 8th December and would like to slim down a bit for the event.
My current stats are:
I'm 5'1" and I currently weigh 112 lbs
Waist: 26 inches
Hips: 36 inches
Calories needed for weight loss (by MFP): 1200
Exercise: At least 3x a week (of varying intensity and they usually last 30 minutes each)
Diet: I strive to keep my diet as clean as possible for at least 5-6 days a week. I always have 1 cheat day (usually Sunday) for carb refeeds. During the 5-6 days of clean eating, I avoid all processed carbs, white rice, desserts and never snack past 8pm. As for drinks, I only have green tea and water. Nothing else.
I have a pear shaped body so my stubborn fat area is in the lower body. I'm not overweight but I have stubborn fat clinging everywhere and I believe I have a good 10lbs to lose. Cellulite is a pain and I can't wear shorts because they show really clearly.
I'm working to drop my waist to 24-25 inches and my hips to 34-35 inches by December (trying to set small reasonable goals). I would also like my weight to drop to 105 lbs but I concentrate more on losing inches than losing weight.
I just would like to know whether my goals are realistic enough and whether they are attainable by 1st week of December. Thanks in advance to anyone who replies!

I would say that 2" inches in a month is doable as long as you're very committed! I would also focus on doing high intensity workouts and adding some strength training, that'll help you to drop inches more than pounds.
Does that help?0 -
Definately do some weight training like someone else suggested...and there will be a possibility of you are really strict..0
