Just joined. Looking for tips to lose weight faster (approx 10-15 lbs in a month). I’m getting married soon and need to fit into my dress 😳

    Unless you are morbidly obese, that rate of loss is unlikely and it’s also unsafe.

    You can, with a reasonable calorie deficit lose maybe 5-8 lbs in a month.

    How soon is the wedding? Can you still have your dress altered?

    Losing that fast is a really bad idea. Unless you want to be fatigued, cranky, and gaunt for your wedding.

    How much total weight are you trying to lose? 1-2 lbs per week is the most likely the most you should be trying for. Please take care of yourself!

    10-15 lbs in a month is probably not going to happen. How much do you have to lose in total?

    If you're looking to drop such a large amount in a month I'm going to guess your wedding is very soon. In which case I'd focus more on getting the dress altered, or getting one that fits without having to lose 10-15lbs to get into it.

    How tall? How much do you weigh?
