Right? What's with all the threads lately, "I need to lose [unreasonable amount of weight] in [unreasonable time frame]"?
OP, assuming the world will not end if you're not 10 lbs lighter by the first week of May, just plug your stats into MFP, meet the calorie goal it gives you,and wherever you are in May is where you are. Make sure you put in .5 lbs/week as your rate of loss. Since you only want to lose 10 lbs, anything else is too aggressive.
I have a few theories about this, since I've noticed it too. It could be that wedding "season " is coming up. Also, there are a lot of workplaces, like mine, that have Biggest Loser contests going on.
Although, that doesn't explain all of the Starvation Mode arguments I've been seeing lately, too..
Not to mention summer vacations & the beach!

Unless you are short , 55kg is already a very acceptable weight. What's with the deadline of May? The potential motivation behind this weightloss in this timeframe is concerning.
If you are 55kg, not incredibly short and still unhappy with how you look, why not look into recomposition - put on muscle and lose fat but end up at the same weight - the results are amazing.
I am short lol, but thank u for the tips!

No.
What's with the No? It's only my opinion.. and from experience and plenty of others it's true. It doesn't look like the OP needs to lose weight, so losing fat will be hard and probably not achievable in her time frame.. however if she is bloated somewhat from carbohydrates and she cut them out - she would lose that water weight quickly.
My carbohydrate intake is pretty low already, I try to eat more protien and healthier fats. Its okay tho, i'll be happy with however much I can lose, thank u guys for the advice0 -
