    I started really trying to lose weight about 2 weeks ago, I have lost about 5 pounds so far, but I have a long way to go. I have a goal of losing 40 lbs. by my birthday in July and another 40 by Christmas, so YES I am in!

    I am totally down with this! I'll be 50 on April 15th. That's a little short of a month.
    I am new here and I dig this support system! Gotta go walk my dog vigorously now before it rains!

    I'm no expert but I suggest cutting your calories to 1300 per day no fastfood, nothing but water beverage and at least 5 days a week 45 min cardio

    This is roughly my goal. I am not going to be mad if I don't hit it. I'll be happy with 7-8 a month. I know it is pretty aggressive to lose at that pace, but hey maybe I'll take advantage of my need to lose a lot bonus. At the moment I am very close to that pace. Started on January 1st and I am down almost 29.

    I know things will slow down at some point, but I'll take advantage now! Not planning to adjust my exercise or eating until I get a little lower (around 50 pounds down total or 6 months which ever comes first). Then I can reevaluate my calorie intake and exercise intensity.

    I eat 1700 + 25-50% of exercise calories, and workout 3-4X a week with strength + cardio for an hour. And get another miscellaneous 1-1.5 hours of exercise a week.

    If I can gain 10 lbs in a weekend, surely I can lose 10 in a month. Count me in.

    I am up for the challenge... I don't know that I will lose that much in a month because I lost so much the past few months. But its worth a try! 10 lbs would be AMAZING, 5 lbs I would be content with.

    you have the same start date as me ^^

    That means 5 pounds in 2 weeks right? Great! thats how much i need to lose before easter ! I'm having this family reunion and the last time i saw them i lost so much weight and they were all so amazed! Then i gained alot back, and i dont want them to see that! But ive been losing the gained weight back, so if i lose 5 more pounds, then ill be only a couple more pounds ( which is hardly noticable) more then i was the last time i saw them ! Count Me In!!:smile::happy:

    It's definitely possible. I lost 10 pounds exactly a month after I started trying to lose weight. I think it's tough to lose 10 pounds in a month if you aren't that overweight. For example, I was 250 lbs to begin with and am now 240 lbs. It would be much harder for an individual that weighed 140 lbs to lose 10 lbs in a month. It really matters what your beginning weight is.
