Hi Everyone!
Is it possible for someone to lose 10% of their weight, in about 2 months?
I was happy with my figure (175 lbs) up to 2 years ago then I got slowly going upwards....
Now at 195 I look at pictures and I don't recognize myself.
I just signed in a gym but I have no patience for the weights.

I have a desk job so I don't walk much. Will try to exercise more and cut on the calories intake.
Would it be possible to lose 10% of my weight in 2 months?
Lose 20 lbs from 350 to 330 should be easier than 195 to 175....
Can it be done on my weight bracket?

    It could be done if you were to eat really clean and exercised like mad but you shouldn't really be looking to lose more than 2lb a week so I would aim more for 10 - 15 lb in 2 months
  • Thanks for the input.
    Yea that is also what the website tells me.
    I will need 2 months (9 weeks) to lose my 20 lbs, assuming I will regulate my food and exercise habits much better than so far.
    Lets see.
