    Unless you are quite overweight, 5k in one month is not a realistic goal at all. Set a simple, achievable goal for yourself so you're less likely to fail and become disappointed and angry with yourself. In most cases, it's not really practical (or safe) to lose more than 2 pounds a week.

    And why the time constraint of only one month? It's not a race, and there are a lot of studies suggesting that the slower you lose weight, the less chance you have of putting it back on in the future.

    Good luck.
