    It can be done...in a healthy way...and I am with you too! I just got a treadmill, and after reading some success stories from other walkers, I am motivated to do this. I read several posts from people that lost 30, 40, even 50 pounds in 3-5 months, just by walking on the treadmill. :)

    I'm with you! I'm trying to lose 20-25lbs. I started walking/jogging and just started the 30 Day Shred. I'm hoping to lose at least 10-15 by August. So far, its a slow start, but I'm confident if I keep it up I'll get there.

    How tall are you?

    Last year, I started at 154 in July and was down to 134 by October. I'm 5'4. Been building muscle since.

    I won't say it's not possible, but since you're female, it's going to be quite hard. Especially when you get 10lb away. Good luck. I would try HIIT and a bit of weight lifting.

    I think you can do it. However if you get close to your weight don't be yourself up. It's a goal. Also consider how you look as well. Lost inches are great too! Make sure to incorporate diet and exercise. Strength training is key.

    I'm totally in for this one! I have until the end of November to lose down to a size 14 or 16. That's the size I want to be when I go on my cruise, although smaller would be ok too! lol If I do 40 pounds by Halloween, I'll be right on track! Woot!
