Getting married in four weeks to help [rest of my life] [south beach]
I have my wedding in a little over 4 weeks. I should be at least 15 pounds or more losses. I want to look good for pictures because Im using them for the rest of my life. Im 61 and about 240 so I think they lose 15 pounds will be huge.
Im not big on pills and go to the South Beach try starting Labor Day. Anyone have any success on the South Beach? Anyone with any other suggestions?
Thanks again.
Reply:I've been on South Beach since April, and I love it. If you stick with it and increase your exercise you should probably be able to reach your goal, or close to it, in 4 weeks. But no cheating, and you are gonna have to increase your cardio to get the results you want. I've found that the less you have to lose, the slower you lose it. People who are very overweight tend go have a greater loss in the first few weeks than those who only need to lose a little.
Reply:You'll probably n otice a large drop initially, especially if you're new to this type of eating. A lot of it will be water, but it's all good in the end – it helps keep you motivated and it keeps you on track.
Seeing as you're male you'll probably have very good inital results as well – you have more lean mass and a naturally higher metabolism. Remember you need to stick with this plan and follow it through if you want to keep the fat off
