I was just looking at my Holiday application and noticed that Christmas is only 72 days away!!!! My question is what do you think I can lose by then? We are going to Disneyland and I would love to be 20lbs lighter. Is that realistic??? I would love some feedback.

    I think everyone's different -- I would love to be -20 by then too! At least 10 pounds, maybe 15.

    that would mean you would have to lose 1 lbs every 2.5 days...
    Might be possible, but wouldnt get your hopes up :O

    Im trying for 8 lbs. That way its about 1 lb per week. About xD

    I lost 14 lbs in just under 100 days....but it depends on you and your body...just DON"T starve yourself. It will work against you....

    At the max 2lbs a week and thats pushing it realistically- christmas roughly 10 weeks away- Its possible but but hard- I think you should go for it!!!!! if you dont make 20lbs I bet you are still pleased with the results

    A 1-2 lb loss per week is an healthy loss. As you get closer to goal the wt loss slows down significantly. Don't set yourself up for disappointment, with unattainable goals.

    5 lbs per month is the most I've been able to lose (with the exception of the first month) :flowerforyou:

    Yes, you can do 20 pounds......but you have to be 100% on everyday to do that. I know from past experience that it is possible for me if I really stick my mind to it and go all out (almost obsessive though - so depends if you are willing to go that far).

    Let me know if you are in for trying - maybe we could support one another?? E-mail, etc. PM me.

    I think you can do it too! And if you want support for 20 before Christmas count me in as I have the same goal in mind :D
