    This sounds like a very steep goal. That's 5 lb per week! My net calories are about 800-1000 a day and I lose about 2 lb per week.

    EDIT: This means you gotta burn 2,300 per day for 30 days (3,500 cal per pound) does this make sense?
  • Lets do this! :D

    YEAH, it sounds steep but I weigh 330 and am 5'11 which means i take in about 3500 calories per day on average. So if I get that down to about 2,000 there is 1500k there. i will excersize another 500 and how much do we burn by skeeping? I think i can reasonably do this.

    Yeah that makes sense. I was just shocked to see the target :) Anyways I saw you added me to friends, I don't think i can lose 20 but I'll try my best to lose 10 in June!

    Your Total Daily Energy Expenditure (TDEE) should be around 3,300 cal assuming no exercise so anything below that you are losing weight.

    Sounds great! I was suggested to drink 2 cups of water before every meal by my physician to help lose weight. It works! I also have lots of veggies daily (4 cups) which fills me up. Some of the lower calorie veggies that fill you up are cauliflour and cucumber. They are great for snacks too.

    And you hit nail on the head with alcohol, that's a toughie though lol
