Not the right season: That is an ambitious project and all it takes is determination. Would still suggest only 10-15 lbs through winter when we are "programmed" to gain little weight. You can finish it off in spring- summer. Good luck and believe in yourself!

Slow to moderate: paced loss is best. Eat healthfully. Try to eat at least 5 servings of vegetables & 4 of fruit per day. Increase nutritional fiber. Avoid refined sugar & junk carbohydrates. Avoid alcohol, sweetened juices, soda & caffeinated beverages. Aim for 7.5 to 8 hrs of sleep / night. Hydrate w at least 64 oz of water / day. Calories burned must > calories consumed. Do both cardio & weight training.
