    heck no that's not too ambitious! I've lost 25 pounds since Nov. 4, 2010, even with all the holiday stuff. We can do it!! :drinker:

    No it's not but you must be very dedicated about exercising most likely almost everyday and eating really really healthy. Lot's of hard work!!!!

    Not too much at all. You can do it. I already lost 15 in 3 weeks. You just need to kick yourself in the butt

    to lose weight healthy just make sure you lose no more than 2KG a week.

    So about 3 months to go (say 90 days), that's 1.16kg/week, or 2.5 lbs. That's a little higher than the usual recommendation of 2lbs/week.

    Would you be terribly sad if you only lost 12kg ?

    Give it a go, but don't set the goal too high, as there is danger you could spend 3 months being frustrated by not reaching the goal.

    Best of luck!!
