How long will it take to lose 60 pounds?

DavidG789

I'm a 19 year Male that currently ways 240 pounds and I'm 5'10 my goal is to get to 180 eventually and maybe lower in the future. I'm doing this on my own and want to know how long it will take me to lose this weight in a healthy way? I've been watching my calories and doing nothing else and this month that I've started and have lost 6 pounds. Any advice? Am I in a good track? I know I should be doing sports but I don't like them so this is what I'm forced to.
