I'm about 5'4" and I weigh 180. Now every night my weight flunctuates and goes anywhere from 174-181. I plan to go gym...which I will start monday but I really need advice on how much weight I need to lose...n how much lbs is healthy to loose in 1 month. I checkd my BMi n it's like I'm obese...n bout 135-140 is the highest normal weight I can have. That's like 40- 50 lbs I want to loose. Now I don't plan on jus losin it in one month cause I'll get bulemic//eatin disorder. I'm planning to stay in the gym for at least 1 years and stuff but I really want to lose the weight in like 3-4 months. How can I achieve this? How much lbs is healthy to lose in 1 month? And is 135-140 my perfect score?
Well, first of all, good for you for wanting to lose weight the right way! So many people mistakenly thinks there is some magical quick fix and that is just not the case. The pounds will come off most quickly in the beginning and it will get harder as you get thinner. I think an achievable and healthy goal is to lose 10 pounds a month for 3 months and 5 pounds a month after that. Your ideal weight will depend somewhat on your body type, ie: is your frame big or small, but I think that 135 pounds is a good goal weight to start with. If you get to 135 and you want to lose more, then I think 125 is possible. Just remember, the thinner you are, the harder it is to drop pounds so you'll have to step up the exercise as you go along or you'll likely hit a platueau. My advice is to incorporate weight training with whatever cardio you do. Increased muscle = increased calories burned, and using weights will speed up the process. You may gain a little weight initially as you build muscles but in the long haul you will lose more. Best of luck!! You can do it!!!
