Hey all,

just wondering how much weight do you think that I could lose by xmas which is just over 4 months away?
I am currently 86kilos :) My goal weight is 55kilos but I know will take a long time to get there, which is fine by me BUT I want to scare my rellies which I usually only see at christmas time by all the changes!

And yes of course, just by eating healthy and exercising :) It's the way to go :)

    If your calorie intake every day is right to lose 2 per week then you can get that target weight in 4 months sure. Make sure you eat your minimum macros, drink plenty of water, and get enough rest every night.

    a realistic goal would be around 20lbs given that it's only about 19 weeks away, but 35-40lbs is also achievable (not sure what that is in kilos)

    Seems like alot of us would like to drop a bunch of weight by Christmas - maybe we should start some sort of challenge?

    I was thinking the same thing - New Year's Eve is a goal date for me
    Losing 1-1/2 lbs per week, one could, in theory, lose 29 lbs by Christmas
    This would take diligence, determination and some luck (plateaus) but I'm in
  • ME TO....I WANT TO BE SEXY FOR CHRISTMAS THIS YEAR....WE SHOULD START A CHRISTMAS CHALLANGE.........:happy:
  • Yeah i dont know what it is in kg's but i think 20lbs is realistic and anything over that is just bonus :)

    Also, how did you do the 'current weight' and 'start weight' picture in your signature? xx
