IS It Possible To Go From A Size 16 To a Size 6

It's possible. But, you have to take your time. I don't know about in time for a wedding. I imagine it wouldn't be healthy. But if you work out, build muscle, and eat right, you can definitely get there.

For an answer to your title of this post look at the postings under success stories.

Yep, you're looking at someone who did! I started a size 16/18 in January of 2010. I'm currently wearing size 6 pants. I'm between a 6 and an 8 depending on the store, but it's entirely possible. I have hit some plateaus, including a 5 month one that I'm just breaking out of. But it'll take dedication and mixing things up when they start to stall. But you can totally do it.

Yes, it's completely possible. I've done it before - but I don't remember how (lol). Probably not the healthy way! But that's why I'm here... to do it right this time :blushing:

My Sisters Getting married and i want to get down to a size 6 for the wedding is it possible if i stay on a strict healthy diet

No Junk food at all

Some Tips would be helpful

I went from a 24 to an 8 ... it's possible, but to do it safely, it takes time and not some fad diet ... and you didn't mention when the wedding is scheduled to take place ...

Well, it IS possible (I've gone from a 18/20 to a 8/10), but it really depends on when the wedding is. It's taken me quite awhile (more than a couple years) to get my weight all the way down AND maintain it.

You and I could almost be two peas in a pod

Yes you can do it on a "STRICT" diet... but ask yourself this, can you maintain this diet throughout the rest of your life? if not. You'll fall off the wagon and gain the weight back,and more because you'd have less muscle mass due to the low caloric diet.

Keep in mind it took some years to put on that weight, it won't come of in days. Commiting to logging food, exercising 4-6 days ( I know that sounds like alot of exercise but if you want to drastically change your body, it take 4-6 days of hard exercise), and replenishing your calories burned, you will lose healthy weight and keep it off. Don;t fall it to fad diets liek the soup diet or lemonaide deit. Don't waste your money of pills, they DON'T work.

Check craigslist or your local gym for personal trainers that are affordable. A few session now and then can really make your sucess. Commit to a 4-6 day workout plan, have a set plan as in Monday: this, Tuesday:that, exct....

http://torquefitness.blogspot.com/ my blog has free workouts, great food ideas, and tons of info. I don;t get paid to endorse anyones products, I don't make money of my blog, so this is 100% non-biast information. I have been in the fitness industry for 7 years and I know ALOT.

BUt to anwser your first question is it possible? Yes. Last Jan 2010 I was 210, I am now 130. But it took a commtiment to exercise 4-6 times a week, eat correctly, replace my calories, and really COMMIT to it.

That depends, how long do you have? A year or more? Maybe (in my head I cannot calculate how many pounds a size 16 is and how many a size 6 is). Less than 6 months, no way, not in a healthy way anyway.

Also, it depends on your body type. When I was at my skinniest last year I had lost 50 pounds, but I was wearing a size 10 in pants. I could have maaaaybe made it down to an 8, but just the way my body and bone structure and muscles are made up, I'll never be any smaller than an 8. My husband says that's being negative, I say it's being realistic and it is what it is.

Just remember, to do it the healthy way and help keep it off, it's recommended that you don't shoot for more than a pound a week. Some weeks you may lose more, some less but don't shoot for more. So if you have 50 pounds to lose, it would take roughly 50 weeks (about a year) but keep in mind you may hit plateues in there, so I would budget for more time (or less pounds lost, whichever works) so that you can stay realistic and not lose focus.

I know for me personally, I cant take it off in a night or a a day it took me 44 years to get this way.

So back to the Gym I go with a smile, I gotta finish walking my one millionth mile !
