Losing 11lbs in 6 weeks. Is it possible?

Well i gained 4lbs over Christmas!!!! I didn't even eat that much. Anyway's, we are going to New York 6 weeks tomorrow and i'd really like to reach my second goal weight of 10 stone by then. This means losing 11lbs in 6 weeks. Anyone else have similar goals? It's my ultimate realistic target weight (though the wii says i should be 9stone 3) and i'd be so chuffed if i can do it by then as we are going away for hubby's 30th. Got a ceilidh for a friends 30th and a wedding this month but just need to be really strict and look at the bigger picture. So i plan on getting back to the exercising and drinking loads of water and eating healthily with the odd treat here and there.

Hi there. I don't see any reason why you can't lose 11lbs in 6 weeks. They recommend that for a healthy weight lose you should aim for 1-2lbs per week and you would be in those limits.

You're in the right place as you can log all your food and exercise and that will help you keep on track.

Good luck.

Well i'm pleased to say i have lost 2lbs so have 9lbs to lose in 5 weeks and 3 days. I am so focused and really want to achieve my goal. Got back on the treadmill yesterday and felt so much better for it. This week has been pretty crappy in general with lots of stress but the good thing is i have not caved and started comfort eating. Yay me!!!. Keep up the good work folks.
