Can you tell me how i could lose 159 pounds in a year?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Your goal weight: loss rate is too steep to be healthy. Unless specifically directed to lose this rapidly by a physician - try setting goal for 1 up to max of 2 lbs per week average. Insure that calories burned > calories consumed. Drink at least 8 - 8 oz glasses of water /day. Aim for 8 hrs of sleep & at least 5 servings of vegetables & 4 of fruit /day. Use whole grain when possible. Avoid soda, alcohol & junk >
