Cosplay dieting blues

3 months for 130 pounds isn't realistic without surgery. Just do a bunch of cardio workouts. If you don't wanna run, skip rope. Its a great alternative to jogging/running. Just walking will not be enough.

i wont recommend it, 130 lb in 3 months you will put your body in to starvation mode and shock mode and because of that you metabolism would decrease trying to keep all the calories in and it would be counterproductive for a while. you would need to loose 1.4 lb every day,that is very hard i'm not saying it is impossible but you would need to keep strong discipline. I use this equation every week to see my progress, Weight(old in lb)*3500-(cal you eat/per day)-(BMR/per day)-(cal Exercise/ per day)=Weight(new)*3500, you would need to have a deficit of 4900 cal=1.5lb daily. I do not know how much you weight or how tall you are but i'll give you an example. A 25 year old female person who weights 180lb, height is 5'6 and stays heavily active will have a approximate BMR of 2200 cal per day, and if she consumes 1600 cal per day. This is how much calories you need to burn daily doing exercise. 180*3500 +1600 - 2200-(cal exercise) = 178.6*3500 (the difference between 180 minus 1.4 lb), that mean that you would need to burn 4300 cal everyday doing exercise. If you want to loose that much i would recommend to seek professional help, maybe some trainers might know a more effective way and what type of food you would need to consume. my personal opinion is that you need to be patient, and instead of loosing it in 3 months i would suggest extending it to 8-9 months. Hopefully this helps and stay strong.

I read that cold showers are good for maintaining health and losing weight. Your body would burn calories just to stay warm. There's more to it so google it if you're interested but I don't have a good memory for such things.
