| | mc,
Actually 10 # in 5 weeks is very difficult. That would require a calorie deficit of 1000 calories / day for 35 days. I know I certainly don't have the willpower for that. That is why most people recommend losing 1# / week.
And, can you bump up the physical activity to more than 3 x / week? I think that would help quite a bit. |

| | | Hi Christi - just remember what sparrow said in her post. Find a way of eating you can live with. Having a weight loss goal in a certain time frame is great, but you might want to think more long term. Dial in a way of eating/working out that will start you in the direction you want to go in. Just saying this to avoid the diet mentality, where people think they can eat healthy during their diet but snap back to their old habits once they've achieved their goal weight. That said, keep on trying - I'm certainly rooting for you. |
