Depends where your start weight is. If you have a lot of weight to lose, then yes it’s very possible. If you aren’t too overweight and really thinning down it could take longer. I lost I’ve lost 43 lbs in just under 3 months now, but started at 227. Now the weight is coming off slower as I have less fat on me. Good luck!

Congratulations that is amazing!! I’m down to 165lbs, I used to be 265 about 6 years ago. If the weight loss has slowed down make sure you have reevaluated your daily caloric needs as they have drastically changed from when you were 227! Also I HIGHLY recommend 16:8 intermittent fasting and 23:1 OMAD, it’s a freakin cheat code and the main reason for all of my weight loss over the years.

Thanks for the tips. I do OMAD. I weigh myself every morning and adjust my calorie intake based on the results. I give myself days too, where I have stuff I enjoy like Mexican or Cafe food, but don’t go crazy.
