A member asked:

Is it possible to burn 5kg of fat and build 2 kg of muscle in 3 months?

A doctor has provided 1 answer
Dr. answered

Possibly: Would depend on things like how much you weigh now and BMI. 2 months is a reasonable time frame for that goal. Diet and exercise will help accomplish that goal but I would not be hung up on the numbers...if you feel and look good...all is good
