    im doing 1200 calories a day,
    and I work out for about an hour or hour and a half every day. :)

    and mostly changing what im eating,
    I used to work at a fast food restaurant and I got free food so that helped with the 312.
    so I haven't eaten fast food for a month. I no longer drink so, which I also got free at my old job.
    so eating fresh veggies and lean mean and lots of fruit. it helped a lot.

    Is that mathematically possible. Considering 3500 calories=1lb that would be 32lbs x 3500cal=120000 Calories in a month. Taking into account that say 28 days in a month give or take. 120000/28= Thats -4000 calories a day. I really suck at math so if i am wrong please forgive me. Not arguing just stating math behind the numbers. :heart:

    Actually (not to be picky) 3500X32 = 112,000 calories

    But having said that
    112,000/28 does equal 4,000 calories per day

    I agree that is a lot of calories
