    30 pounds in 2 months is not very realistic... And the chances of it staying off aren't great.

    Up your calories! Eat more protein. Have a balanced diet. If you can't eat a lot more, eat foods with more fat. It will get the calorie intake up.

    Preposterous. Your goal itself is unhealthy and the rate of loss is unrealistic. Aim for a healthy goal and count yourself lucky to lose a half pound per week.

    30lbs in 2 months at your weight is unrealistic and unhealthy. You need to moderate your expectations. 800 calories a day is drastically low, and you will be doing yourself damage if you keep it up.
