ok joy f****ng joy. i bought some scales and i HAVE put on a stone. i now weigh 67kg. i wish to be 57kg by the end of this month. i have bought some thermogenic thingys called go cal1000. my diet is sorted and im walking for an hour to 95 mins a day. attempting to run but there is snow everywhere and i cant. is 10kg achieveable by the end of febuary? if so, how much energy do i need to be burning a day. how many hours worth of walking would i need to do at a moderate to brisk pace to burn enough calories to reach this goal. i am 5ft 7.
oh and steve if you read this, is an hours walk enough to boost this whole thermogenic stuff in the morning? or does it have to be high CV for it to be of any benefit.
thanks
a very p****d off ceg
 
10 kg in a month is quite a lot. from what I've heard, 1 kg a week is about the most you should hope to lose, it's probably more like 0.5 kg - 1 kg, so that would be 4 kg lost at the end of Feb. (which, in my world, 10 pounds lost in 1 month is awesome!) This is just personal experience, but losing the weight consistently over time leads to more permanent weightloss. Don't strive for speed.
 
thanks, only thing is i need a quick solution! i am aware it aint healthy or even going to stick! but i want to know if it is possible given my weight and height to loose a stone or 10kg by the end of feb. how much do i need to burn! how much walking do i need to do. how much running, i dont care i need to get it off asap. long story.
 
I'd say you would pretty much have to starve yourself and exercise any spare moment you could. Which obviously is horrible and should not be done even if you really want to lose that much weight. There is no reason to NEED to lose that much weight in a month as the health problems far outway the rewards for doing it.

Exactly.

You probably aren't losing weigh or are putting on weight because you're not eating the way you should and your body knows this. Fight all you want but if your body isn't getting what it needs it will basically tell you off. Sometimes when you think that eating as little as possible will help you out when you "need" that quick fix, it turns around on you and only makes everything worse.
 
I've seen your posts, ceghead, so I'll share my experience with what happened when many years ago I experimented with what you're proposing. My boyfriend and I had been separated by distance, and I didn't want to tell him that I had gained a lot of weight. When he called to tell me he was coming back, I realized I only had a couple of months to lose as much as I could.

I barely ate anything, except the "cabbage soup diet", drank water to squelch hunger pains, used thermogenics, ran and exercised my ass off. Did I lose a ridiculous amount of weight in a short amount of time? I sure did!

I also experienced my nails becoming so brittle they broke easily, my hair thinned and frayed, my heart rate went up to dangerous levels, I lost muscle, my skin looked like shit, I was constipated to the point where straining caused blood, and I experienced horrible mood swings to the point that I was constantly experiencing anxiety or felt like I was about to cry. When I actually started eating a healthy calorie amount, my weight shot up past where I had started. The kicker is that I had screwed up my metabolism so badly that it took a whole lot longer for me to lose ANY weight at all after that.

I understand that there's some reason you feel like you need to lose this weight in a hurry, but even in hurting yourself, the amount of weight you could lose in a month wouldn't make enough of a difference to make the consequences worth it. It doesn't take long to do some serious damage to yourself, but a lot longer to fix it once the damage is done.
