    Sounds good.. let the magic work itself out!
  • That means 2.5 -3lbs lost per week. I think it's very realistic and I've done it before but with a very strict diet. I cut out tea, coffee, white sugars, white bread, no junk food or ice cream, no white potato. I only ate a small portion of meat but no fried foods, I substituted 1 meal for a protein shake, and I ate a lot of foods with fiber. Black beans and brown rice became a regular meal lol. I also worked out 3 times a week with cardio (switching it up from the treadmill, elliptical, or the bike) and some strength training. Good luck! Oh and lots of water!

    I think for now i'll aim for 8lbs in 6 weeks assuming 3 is already water weight factored in and see what happens from there.

    Also expecting to lose more inches than weight.

    Thanks all.
    that sounds much better...who cares about the number anyway if you are being good to your body. I dont know if you lift but weight training will have a nice impact on appearance.
