    pick up a milk gallon containing 1 gallon of water.
    hold it.
    step onto scale.
    step off scale.
    put it down.
    step onto scale.
    voila! ...8lbs lost in the blink of an eye!

    I was going to suggest he could just lop off part of his arm or leg... but this seems better.

    I'm around 155
    And yeah I know 8 pounds is a lot but if I put in a lot of dedication and workout a lot
    Will I be able to reach my goal?
    My goal is to hit 141 or around there
    How much should I lose per week so I can get there faster?

    Assuming you meant in a month, and that your ticker is accurate (12 lbs to lose) about the best you can hope for is half a pound per week. If you want to lose all or mostly fat that is.

    What's the rush?

    there is some hidden truth to what i wrote in that anyone losing 8lbs in a week is losing mostly... drumroll please... water weight!

    Oh Yeah I remember now
    It's 8 pounds in a month
    That was a fail by me -.-
    Is that more realistic?

    8 pounds in a month is realistic if you are obese.

    As you weigh the same amount as me, and I am happy if I lose half a pound in a week, I think a goal of 2-4 pounds in a month is much more realistic.

    You could be able to do it if you eat a minimal amount (around 1200 calories) per day. You will feel like crap and crave a decent meal. THe fundamental question that you haven't answered yet is WHY???

    8lbs in one week is easy

    Water + Honey + Lemon Juice + Cayenne Pepper + Orphan tears.

    drink that like 20 times a day and eat whatever you want.

    Not sure why everyone is giving you *kitten* answers we all know the secret. I lost like 70 lbs in 2 months doing that..

    Ooops....still, it will depend on how much weight to be lost. If you only need to lose 8 Lbs then 8 Lbs isn't coming off in a month. If you need to lose 100 Lbs then ok...
