I weigh 208lbs. how much time should I aim at to lose 60 lbs?

like i read in some other post there's nothing wrong to take a year of your life and lose the weight, sometimes we pressure are self with timeline and that doesn't always happen

It took me 6 months to lose the first 60lbs of the 75ish I have to lose. The first couple months were the biggest drops and mostly water weight, I suspect. After that I leveled off to about a lb-1.5 lb per week average, though not linear...one week it might be .8 and the next week 2lb and another week nothing followed by a week of 3lbs. You can expect a few big drops early, especially f you're reducing carbs as I was (necessary, not a fad choice) and then a more gradual rate after that. Since the fist 6 months, I've only lost 5-7 lbs over the last 4 months. The last 10 lbs are a longer process.

Set you stats for a lb per week and see how it goes. Don't put too stringent time goals on yourself. Plan for a year and if you get a couple wooshes to make it a bit quicker, that's a bonus. Expecting too much, too fast can lead to disappointment and quitting. You could do 2lbs if you have more than the 60 to lose, but you won't have many calories to work with and no one likes to be hangry.

Mostly, I lift. When I got rolling, I wanted to maintain muscle mass, so I took up strength training. I started with Stronglifts 5x5 for the simplicity of it, but have more recently started to expand my efforts. I've kept the big lifts, but have also added assistance work.

I do yoga twice a week and I walk....everyday with the dog if the weather is good enough for it. 2 or 3 times per week on the treadmill if the weather is not good...We've been in a deep freeze of brutal cold for the last couple weeks here, so there's no waking the dog outside lately.

I have an aversion to cardio, so I don't do anything more than the above right now, though my goal for the year is to embrace cardio in some manner. Hope to learn to jog in the spring.
