Well, sadly, there is no ASAP. You can try to lose the maximum, 2 lbs per week, in the beginning, but as you get closer to your goal, you will need to decrease that.
Realistically, I would say at least 40 weeks to lose all 40 lbs.3 -
Agreed with this ^. Faster is not better.
Take your time to lose the weight in a sustainable way and you stand more chance of keeping it off than if you go hell for leather and burn out to the point you go back to doing all the things that you were doing in the first place.1 -
Dropping it like it's hot is not all it's cracked up to be. The sustainable protocol you can follow will always be better than the rapid weight loss method you quit. Starting over and over and over again only digs you into a much deeper hole with food. There are no shortcuts. Edge your way down slowly and find your pathway to long term weight stability.
