I want to lose ten pounds in one month. Is that a reasonable goal? I've been eating a lot better and have already lost about five pounds in about two months just from that. I'm going to start working out two to three times a week. I'm 5'2" and 145 pounds. Do you think I can do it?

I know you are not that much over weight but.
Try this it was invented by a dietitian for obese people who need an operation in two weeks time.
There is enough for one week so freeze half freshly made to last the week.
I cheated and did it for a whole month every other month went from a 40in waist to a 32in without to much effort.
Operation Soup
Ingredients.
3 large onions
1 large or two small green peppers
1 bunch of celery
½ head of green cabbage
1 leek
2 tin chopped tomatoes
1 packet of French onion soup (any brand)
3 vegetable stock cubes (I use oxo)
Cut all vegetables into bite size pieces if your not going to liquidize.
Place all in a large pot add enough water to cover.
Simmer until vegetables are cooked add more water if necessary.
NOTE
To be eaten as a two meal replacement (largest and the smallest).
You can still have a light lunch or light evening meal.
Should not exceed 5 days at a time and 10 days a month.
You will pass more water so make sure you keep up your water intake.

the perfect weight to lose (wisely) is one million-2 pounds a week on customary. So 10 pounds a month must be ok with the aid of fact it particularly is no longer that fairly greater from an customary perspective. you ought to do greater desirable than purely pilates nonetheless. cardio will make the load fall off lots speedier in case you combine it.

Easily. Wokring out at the gym for about an hour or two will burn calories and ergo result in weight loss. How you work out is importamt from the standpoint of where you want to lose the weight.

one to two pounds a week is really what most doctor's recommend. Plus the closer you are to your goal the harder it can be because your body's metabolism works more efficiently. Exercize may be your best bet, combined with your better eating habits.

Sure, I've done it. First of all I went on a fast. But a better solution is that you can go on a protein diet, where you eat only
meats. There are many good books on it. I have one called
the Perricone Prescription Diet. I lost with that one for sure.

You're looking at 2-3 pounds per week, which is certainly possible, especially if you are eating healthily and exercising. Good luck!

If you do, it will be difficult depressing and all hard work for nothing as you'll put it back on.
Keep your targets more realistic and in the long run, you'll be healthier physically and mentally.
