A member asked:
Do you think that 90 days is a reasonable amount of time to loose 45 pounds?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Maybe: That would be 15 pounds per month, or 4 pounds a week. Unless you are otherwise extremely healthy where such a weight loss over that short period of time will not compromise anything, i would only lose this weight with a nutritionist or physician keeping a close watch.
