That's 40 pounds in about 12 weeks. I think you're being very unrealistic. What's the rush? Why 97 pounds as your goal? That seems low to me, unless you are considerably shorter than me. If you try, I think you'll make yourself sick.
Why don't you set a more achievable immediate goal, like the 22 pounds your profile says you recently gained? That's still a lot to lose in 12 weeks though - about 2 pounds a week. I've been very dedicated to my exercise and keeping to my calorie goals as much as I can and I see at best a consistent loss of about 1.5 lbs a week.
My best suggestion for you is to spend some time reading here and see how other people are successfully losing. Maybe find someone with similar goals to your own.0 -

Set realistic goals. If you don't you will fail. You also need to be smart about how you do it. I recommend reading the following to begin with:

Trying to be supportive and not negative - but 2 pounds a day is not realistic. It can be done for sure if you are dedicated, but the chance of it staying off is not high, and there can be side effects that are not desirable.0

You can lose 40 pounds in 12 weeks... if you totally keep up on what you're doing how your body is reacting to what you're doing and you micromanage every single thing you do.
But you need to know what exactly you're doing.. cause none of us here do and we mess up alot.
So that said... I lost 16 pounds in 6 weeks so I could say you could lose 30 in 12...0 -

someone much heavier than you would probably be able to see that much weight come off in that amount of time in a healthy way, however, when you are already smaller, it comes off much slower.
I also have to agree that 97 is very low, unless you are under 5ft tall. I checked your profile but you didn't mention your height, so if you really are under 5ft then it's a reasonable goal, but not in that amount of time.
eta: don't let that discourage you. slow and steady is still progress!0 -
no offense but you need to be patient and lower your expectations. use this weight loss journey as a time to learn to love and honor yourself, & change unhealthy habits for life. if you get all crazy with high expectations you'll just feel horrible all the time, get drained/discouraged easily, and develop negative views about yourself and your body. take it slow, be patient, create progress with hard work+love, and don't try to attain the completely unattainable. you'll end up feelin' like crud, perpetually not meeting your unrealistic exceptions, or you'll end up with an eating disorder. trust me on this one0

How tall are you? Unless you are under 5'0'' I think that your goal weight sounds a little too low. Just remember that having an unhealthy weight can do some pretty nasty stuff to you...hair loss being one of them.0

i know it is low for my height 5'3 , but i wanna be skinny as my favourite singer and her weight is 97lbs... and i also know it is a short amount of time for 40lbs to come off, but i just want to try my best and after i reach my goal in 12 weeks im going to start eating healthy again.. thats my plan and i want it to be quick because summer is coming0 -
sorry what is turbo fire and chilean extrerme???? Sorry dont know
They're products/programs from Beachbody.com, like Insanity, P90X or Les Mills Pump. Whatever program you follow, weight loss mainly happens in the kitchen (more calories out than in = weight loss), but trying to achieve your goal with this formula IMO is unhealthy. Like most people here are saying: It's best to adjust your goal to st more realistic (.5 or 1 pound/week sounds reasonable) in order to stay motivated, happy and foremost… sane!0 -
Not to be mean, but you have a LOT more weight to lose than the OP. It's easier to lose fast when you have a larger excess of weight. It gets tougher and slower close to goal weight.You can lose 40 pounds in 12 weeks... if you totally keep up on what you're doing how your body is reacting to what you're doing and you micromanage every single thing you do.
But you need to know what exactly you're doing.. cause none of us here do and we mess up alot.

I don't know what turbo fire is, but 18kg/40lbs in 85 days is not attainable... well, it is, but not in a healthy way, nor in a way that you will be able to maintain that weight. Crash dieting can weaken your heart, amongst other things.
97lbs is around 44kg, and that would mean you must be a petite frame, is that right? How tall are you?
I've been losing weight consistently for 14 months now and I've done it the right way - gym and eating well. I have lost 27.5kg/61lbs in that time... if you're prepared to change your life in a permanent way, then we can all give you the right tools to obtain this goal of yours, but not in that short timeframe.
Is there an event that you're wanting to attend in 85 days?0 -

I saw an interview with Jillian Michaels yesterday. She has such a hot body and at 5' 2" is 115 lbs. 97 lbs at 5' 3" is not achievable unless you want to lose lean muscle.That's 40 pounds in about 12 weeks. I think you're being very unrealistic. What's the rush? Why 97 pounds as your goal? That seems low to me, unless you are considerably shorter than me. If you try, I think you'll make yourself sick.

Because someone is your favorite singer is no way to pick your goal weight! How do you know she really is even 97 lbs? That could be a lie. Look at the link above for In Place of Another Road Map. There's some help with how to use the calculators at http://www.fat2fitradio.com/tools/ to determine realistic goals from your own measurements.
Be smart, not hasty to lose weight.0 -

really? i thought 97 was good but everyones saying it is unhealthy i think i should change my goal weight
so what should i try aiming for ??0 -
It really depends on how much of your body weight 43 lbs is. If it's 15-20%, it's possible; if it's 25-30%, it's probably not.0

wow... are you 4ft 8 inches?? why strive to be 97#'s?!?!?
as much as i'd love to loose wt super fast.. im done with crash diets and deptivation that wont last for long term!
im eating now how I will eat when im done loosing my wt..
40#'s in 85 days is 'possible'.. depends tho.. the fastest way food wise is LOW CARB.. extreme...
but basically its a crash ish diet that your looking at..

See my post above this one - it's not something we can tell you. It's personal based on your measurements. Use a measuring tape, the scale and the online calculators in the link above to find a target in the healthy body fat range.97 is NOT healthy for somebody who is 5'3. Striving for that unrealistic goal could kill you.

The quickest way to describe the two programs is that TurboFIRE is fun cardio with strength training on the side and ChaLEAN Extreme is weights with cardio on the side. The cardio in TurboFIRE is more choreographed than the cardio in ChaLEAN Extreme. TurboFIRE also comes with HIIT workouts which stands for High Intensity Interval Training- this will help kick up your metabolism throughout the whole day. ChaLEAN Extreme also does some interval training in the cardio, workouts it's like I have a personal trainer at home.
•TurboFIRE is going to come with everything you need, with ChaLEAN Extreme you will need to buy weights or extra bands.
•TurboFIRE comes with a six day per week schedule. You will have to cut things out to get it to five days if you want. (ChaLEAN Extreme is a five day a week program.sorry what is turbo fire and chilean extrerme???? Sorry dont know0 -
