I am female and 131 pounds at 5 feet 4.5 inches. Would it be too aggressive if I tried to lose 11 pounds before June 4th?

    You can try, but it will involve losing a pound a week every week between now and then. It might happen, it might not, but either way you'll be closer to your goal. Weight loss is tougher when you're smaller to begin with.

    With so little to lose, that goal would be difficult. Setting a goal of 1/2 pound loss per week would be more realistic and you wouldn't be too far off your goal weight.

    Certainly doable. I know a guy (and he's not overweight at all) that lost 12 pounds in 2 weeks, in a step challenge at work. Did he gain that back? Absolutely. Still, you have three months - it's doable but I wouldn't go buy a non-returnable dress in a smaller size, or anything like that. ;)
