K here's a poll...How many of you think I can loose 50 pounds in 2 months?

p.s. To anyone who wants to loose weight or keep the current one -> don't eat anything fried in oil, that goes for stuff like potato chips and french fries. If not a vegatarian - eat more poultry than other meat.

No soft drinks!

Eat rise, vegetables (boiled or fresh), a bit, but not too much, nuts, fruits.

Also - don't eat any sweets. It's not about how much calories that one candy has, but it's about the chemical reactions that that candy starts in your metabolism.

Curiously enough high quality bitter black chocolate (like 75-95% cocoa) is ok in little quantities.
We use it as a quick energy fix in tournaments or before trainings, if little has been eaten that day.

As a last piece of advice -> In the end it's not so much about how much or little you eat, but about how much energy you output. Workout, workout, workout

maybe 2 years

I've lost 40 pounds in two years. I do not excercise per se. However I do count calories roughly. I exagerate them slightly and try to keep them under 2000 per day. Went from double chin to fit and trim.

I still watch may calories. I eat everything and anything.

2 months sounded like a goal I had. That is like over five pounds a week, and seems very very very unlikely

Did you do it using psychic powers?
It sounds magical.

 

Dragon , lets hear about your regular diet, on average, to give you a better opinion.

 

its not the diet that the problem, but the stress. Anyways thats no longer a problem, I am doing pushups and loosing weight. sets of 20 pushups of 100 pushups in 5 minutes and overall 400 pushups in a day. works for me

I feel my tummy dissapearing.

 

Good for you Drag , keep up the good work.

 

You can SAFELY and efficiently lose 1-2 pounds of fat per week. This means 8-16 pounds in two months. Trying to lose any more will only sabotage your results. Sure, you can be 185 pounds in 2 months.. but you will be what I call "skinny fat."

 

:shrug: so what should my goal be than? I mean looking like Vin Diesel is my goal...

 

If it were me, I'd worry about building muscle first. It's the only thing you can do to boost your metabolism. Eat 1.2-1.7 grams of protein per kg of body weight, next 60% or so of you total calories should come from carbs. Everything else is fat. Eat tons of food and workout 3 times a week doing a strength training program (like Rippetoe's Starting Strength). If you do it right, you should gain 20 pounds in a few months (most of it water and muscle). After all this, you could cut 400 calories a day and keep strength training. You'll notice your strength my not increase during this time, but you will be losing fat.

 

1 lb of fat = 3,500 calories

2,000+ daily calories are required for you to maintain your current weight.

A 500 calorie daily defecit is simple to achieve. Double that and you will be uncomfortable at times. Thats 2 lbs a week. Distribute your calorie intake throughout the day (eat every 3 hrs).

You will not lose 50 lbs of fat in 2 months.

Good luck on 16 lbs.
