I need to lose twently pounds, I was underweight and put on weight that bad way, such as eating foods high in fat and a lot of fast food, I need to lose all that fat and then gain my weight back with muscle mass, how long do you think this will take? To lose the unwanted fat? I'm going on a diet, 1,200 calories, no junk, lots of veggies, fruits subsituted for snacks, 8 bottles of water a day, that sort of thing
I've joined a gym and got a personal trainer, how long do you think it'll take for me to lose all this fat, 20 pounds?

good for you for taking your health seriously.. now here we go.. the first week you MIGHT lose as much as 5-7 pounds.. past that the most you can lose and still be healthy is 2-3 pounds a week.. anything above that and you are losing Muscle, not Fat... so all out, it could happen in a little over a month.. most likely it will take closer to two or three months. One thing to remember.. you will be putting on muscle while the fat is being burned.. so you may even gain weight over some of the small periods.. but muscle burns more energy while resting, hence raising your metabolism.. so when the fat is gone you will be able to more easily regulate your weight.

good luck and be patient.

It actually relies on the TYPE of query. Some which can be tediously disturbing or trite, OR hateful rants OR while each phrase is misspelled (lyke omg so mi bff and me an my BF have been lyke all goin out an idk lyke omg .....) you understand, the ones type LOL. I pass the ones. But i do not brain studying via a particularly lengthy Q whether it is respectable or intriguing. Most of the Q's i reply anymore don't seem to be lengthy nevertheless. But brief, humorous, and to the factor. xD ?
