    That's a very hard goal. 2lbs. Week will take commitment

    Good luck though I grafted this summer and lost 1.5 per week for 26 weeks. I had to spend 2 hours a day on a bike to achieve that

    1-2lbs a week is where you want to be. That's only 3500-7000 calories a week. I suggest cut calories by 300 per day and hit the elliptical for 300-500 cal 4 days a week. It seems simple and it really is.

    I'm jumping in with both feet! I have 100 lbs to lose. I can hardly manage to bend over and tie my shoes anymore. Time for a change!

    Are you 200-240 lbs? If so, that's a really aggressive goal for a woman. The odds of maintaining a 2 lb average loss all year are very low.

    I would suggest not trying to hit an arbitrary weight loss goal. Instead, focus on losing in a healthy manner while building lifetime healthy habits.

    Best of luck to you.

    I would suggest a smaller and more realistic goal. That sounds too intense imo

    I think that's a very awesome and doable goal. I started my journey back in April and have lots 60lbs in 8 months. I had a couple months where I let life bring me down and came back out of it on top. Had i stayed on track no doubt would i of been down 80lbs by now. I have a personal trainer and I don't think I could of done it without her. I'm still trucking and have 65lbs left to lose. I try to be on here and help give support where I can.
