How do you lose 10 pounds in a month?

How to lose 10 pounds a month? Start with having about a lot more weight to lose.

Really, when you don't have 75+ pounds to lose, the 2 pound a week setting is overkill.

I have lost more than 10 lbs in a month- you can look at my food diary to see how I have been doing it if you want

I'm popping in to say it's unhealthy whether or not you really want to hear it . Either you'll do it an unhealthy way or you'll just lose a bunch of water weight which can be easily gained back. The most you should lose is 2 lbs a week. Actually, you are where I started. I've lost 28 pounds in 7 months and I can't imagine losing 35 in 3.5 months. Good luck though.

You can eat 6 small portion of vegetables and fruit low calories before meals . You not going to be hungry when you eat you lunch or dinner . I lose 12 pounds on 5 weeks . Some time I would like to eat more but I can't my stomach is full

10 lbs a month is not unhealthy. You've got some good advice on here. Good luck, but remember that some people simply lose slower than others. If that's you, don't get discouraged. It will happen if you are persistent

The facts:
3,500 calories equals 1 pound.

The math:
Let's say you want to lose 10 pounds in 30 days.
If 3,500 calories equals 1 pound and you need to lose 10 pounds you multiply 3,500 by 10. (3,500 x 10 = 35,000)
• You need to burn 35,000 calories in 30 days. How much is that a day? (35,000 ÷ 30 = 1,166)
• You need a 1,166 calorie deficit a day to make your goal
{Note: If you want to lose 15 pounds in 45 days or 22 pounds in 60 days, just replace the numbers.}

Now that you have that number, figure out how many calories you will be taking in for that 30 day period.
Let's say you decided to take in 1,400 calories a day.
The math here is add the deficit (1,166) to your daily calorie intake 1400: so, (1400 + 1166 = 2,566)
• You need to burn 2,566 calories a day to make your goal.

The great news! People burn TONS of calories a day just by breathing, driving a car, etc.

I am keeping this!!!

The post showing the math of what you need to do is a very good place to start. I started with all this on Feb 22,2014 and I've lost 40lbs to date. (Averaging 4.3lbs lost per week).

I'm not doing anything super extreme, I just calculated how many calories I need to burn per day(that I don't eat back, to get to my 14,000 cal deficit for the week(every -3500 is one lb lost). I then calculated my daily cal usage, multiplied that by 7 to get my cals burned per week, and set my food and excercise goals to be as close to 14,000 less than that as possible.

If my calorie needs per day is 3,100 to maintain my weight as is, that's 27,000 per week. 14,000 less than that(the 4lbs I want to lose, is 7,700 I can eat per week to hit that goal. However 1100 cals per day isn't really enough food. I'm eating a goal of about 1,600 per day give or take 200. That's an extra 3,500cals(or conveniently 1lb per week I'm not losing) which I try to work off with execercise.

If you look through my diary I don't always hit 1600,sometimes I go over some times I'm under so it tends to balance out pretty well and this way, with such am aggressive goal, even if I break my budget I'm still losing weight without worrying.

I should say I'm not starving or depriving myself, eating food I like and avoiding really bad food decisions in a pain free way by realizing how terribly they screw up all my long planned out math.

Would i rather have 2 slices of pizza and make dinner impossible to include or would I rather have 200 grape(I don't even think I could eat 200 of em) and still have tons of calories left for dinner and a late snack?

That's been my experience anyway.

Take from it what's useful to you and discard the rest.

100% mindset. It is possible to lose 10 lbs. per month. I have clients safely loosing 12 in that amount of time. You really have to focus on nutrition without having a cheat day. That is first and foremost. The exercise is still important because you need it three times per week. The mindset is equally important to both exercise and nutrition because if you do not have the right mindset, your goal will be more difficult to reach. You must have the belief that you CAN lose at least 10 lbs. per month.
