    Your youth is definitely in your favor.....but everyone is different so its hard to say "how long".

    good luck with your goals!! :drinker:

    We have similar body sizes and when I was younger it took 6 months from 155 to 117. Exercise helps a lot with speeding up you metabolism as well - You can probably do it in 3-4 months. :flowerforyou:
