If I work hard, is it realistic to lose 100 pounds in 1 year?

Question

My birthday is mid December, I plan to lose a lot of weight by the time my next birthday comes around

Answer

Id you do it in a healthy way (not starving yourself or abusing the gym) realistically you can lose an average of 2 pounds a week which would make a maximum of 104 pounds in a year. However the thing a lot of people get caught up on is when they watch the scale so much and they don't think about the muscle build up and the fact that muscle weighs more than fat. Good luck!

Answer

Yes. I lost 75 from doing keto this year. I started February 15 and hit my goal weight in October. I used my fitness pal, no soda, homemade iced coffee with sugar free flavor and walk or workout an hour 5 days per week.

Answer

For one depends how much your starting weight is. Like if you are 350 and want to get to 250 maybe. I lost 87 in a year. Got lazy and lots of holidays between September to December. Probably would have lost more. It’s easier to lose the more you weight. Verses that last 20-40 pounds that won’t budge. It’s a lot of hard work. High protein high fiber and low sugar low salt and mostly granola bars for bread carbs. I used a Fitbit and MyFitnessPal app and just walked. MyFitnessPal is great. It tracks everything. You get a set number of calories and when you exercise you get extra calories to eat or save towards the end of the day which is your calorie deficit and equates to weight loss.

Answer

Very possible!! Fitness is a lifestyle .. remember that! Not a hobby. Once you recognize that, it will make it easier to understand and easier to accomplish.

Answer

You could. But go for mini goals. You don’t have to lose 100 pounds to look good. That can be your goal but it’s healthier for your body not to rush weight loss.

Answer

Thats a huge goal its doable but seems daunting. I have always been told to start small with shorter durations. Like lose 8 pounds this month or 2-3 pounds in a week. It comes out to like 100 over a year but doeant seem as scary sounding and generally more doable.

Answer

give or take, yes.
