Thank you!

    Absolutely! It will take a lot of hard work and dedication, but it is possible. It might be better to set your sights just a bit lower, though.

    As you will see recommended a thousand times over these forums, make sure you eat enough. 1200 is generally not enough. Strength training is essential, but cardio is also good. For me, three days of cardio and two days of weights each week has me losing at a solid, steady pace.

    Good luck!

    Did you see there is another thread going now that asks if she can lose 50 lbs in 4 mos. There are a lot of comments there, you might want to read the posts there too. I think she is about the same age as you also.

    Maybe you two can motivate and support each other.

    If you believe you will receive. If you doubt, you'll do without.
