If you are one of the many people that thinks it’s impossible to lose weight, you are not alone. The good news is that it’s not impossible for you to lose weight, but it does mean you’ll have to be consistent with lowering your calories, and be patient.
Below is a link to the most accurate weight loss estimator, to date, so you can see how long it will realistically take to get that bodyfat down.
I’ve used this tool for myself and find that it is quite truthful. For instance, it states that to maintain my weight, I should eat 1683 calories a day even though I lift weights 90 minutes, four days a week. To lose three pounds in 30 days, I should limit my calories to 1455 calories daily. That’s not a lot of food, so it’s been really tough for me to get those darn three pounds off.
I suggest putting your activity level a bit lower than what you think it actually is, because it might display your suggested calories higher than it should be.
