Hello to everyone! Happy to be here.
So, my situation is a bit specific, so I wanted to ask for any advice/hints before I got going. I weigh more or less 380 lbs and I'm totally fine doing what I have to do to lose the person I need to lose. I've lost a lot of weight before. The difference this time has to do with my career. I'm a young opera singer and I, thus, need to be in tip top vocal shape before anything else. I need to lose 140-150 pounds in the end, but I spoke with several people who have lost lots of weight as opera singers and they all said the same thing:
"GO SLOWLY!"
Apparently, I'm to lose no more than 6-8 pounds a month if I want to keep my voice intact (and I most certainly do). When I went from 350 to 240 the first time, I lost about sixty pounds in three months and killed the rest off in another two. This time, I absolutely cannot do that.
So...any hints on losing specifically fat without losing any weight beyond 6-8 pounds a month?
Thanks for your help!
