Lose pounds and inches
How long will it take to lose 50 pounds?
If I start running, and eating about 1,500 calories a day how long would it take to lose 50 pounds? I'm about 5'8'' and 180 pounds. I am a female. I would also like a six-pack. How should I go about that? What kind of diet and exercising plan do I need?

- Well, depending on what you eat exactly, I'd say that would most likely take around 6-12 months. That's a realistic estimate, and I would be more concerned with getting the bulk of 35-40 off right now before going for the abs. If you can keep to it, I would suggest a low carb, high protein diet, because that's how I lost (and kept off) most of my weight. Also make sure to add variety in your exercise plan, and take a day or two off each week. Go running, that's great, but try walking, bilikin, dancing, etc.
- Give it six months and you'll be satisfied.
- it depends. You'll lose weight quickly in the beginning if you are excercising too....but then it slows down. I lost 20 lbs in the first 2 months..but then was stuck at losing 2 lbs per week when i was dieting
