I am looking for an effective program to drop as much weight as possible in approximately 30 days.
I will be attending a wedding with relatives I haven't seen in a long time and want to look the best I can.
I would eventually like to lose 50+ pounds so I am hoping the initial weight comes off quickly, although I am also hypothyroid.

What has worked for you?

    Just eating with a moderate calorie deficit and exercise. I don't know of any quick way to lose weight that is sustainable in the long run. I have hypothyroid and take thyroxine too.

    You can lose a good few pounds over this month and start to notice the difference in how you feel physically.

    I'd make a start as soon as you are able and close to the wedding buy a new outfit (if this is affordable) that you really like and fits your current shape well. Enjoy seeing your family.

    There are loads of diet plans that will promise you rapid weight loss in that timeframe but I wouldn't suggest adopting one. Unless this wedding was very last minute I'm guessing you knew about it a while ago & maybe should have started a lot sooner instead of looking for a quick fix at the last minute. That being said, you could eat at a sensible deficit, exercise & count your cals & lose some weight sensibly in that timeframe & then continue with it after this event to get to where you want to be in the long term & you would probably feel much better for it than if you try to massively undereat for the next30days

    Don't want bust your bubble but if there was a "quick" and "safe" way to lose weight, we'd all be doing it. The thing I tell myself is that you didn't get this way in a week or a month and you aren't going to get back to where you were in that time either. Pick a workout program that you can stand and hopefully enjoy, count your calories and give yourself 6 months or a year. Take some pics tomorrow and then again along the way and enjoy your newfound success?
