    I'd suggest lowering that goal a bit. 30 pounds in 3 months might be a better number to strive for, though even that is a bit on the hefty side. Trying for anything more is just potentially setting yourself up for failure because it will be extremely difficult and possibly quite miserable. Just have some patience, the weight will come off. I've lost 90 pounds in 9 months and it required a lot of work and a lot of dedication and a loooot of patience.

    I'm in the same position. I'm trying to loose 44 pounds by October also weigh 196. I knw strength training should help slim down.

    Have you actually sat down and realised what realistic weight loss rates are? 44 in 3 months? Just why? Safe weight loss and just as importnatly tend to be between 1-2lb a week.

    Is timetraval an option in your country?

    I can only suggest getting a much more realistic goal and time frame.

    50 pounds to lose, think 25 weeks at best, that's December or January and even that's optimistic I think,
