How Much Can You Lose In 1 Month?

Step 3: Be aware of the common mistakes

So you think you can lose weight based on some online research!

Is it possible to lose 20 pounds in a month?

We were just talking about realistic weight loss goals. Twenty pounds translate roughly to 10 kilos and severe restriction diets may also help you reach that number.

However, remember what you will lose is the water weight and muscle. For long-term weight loss, you need to follow a diet plan which includes all food groups and also be physically active.

Step 4: Get the initial prep work done.

This could mean analysing your current diet, your hormonal status with blood tests or simply doing a routine check-up.

This will give you a complete picture and help you and your nutritionist make informed dietary decisions based on it.

Step 5: Pay attention to your diet

While many would start with an intensive exercise regime first, we suggest you rather understand your dietary needs first.

A study found that physical activity may be hailed unnecessarily as a sure shot way to lose weight!

The ideal weight loss ratio for sustainable results is 70% diet and 30% exercise.

Our blog points out 6 such problems in the Indian diet. Armed with this knowledge, you are better equipped to make informed decisions.

This goes a long way not just in weight loss but also in weight management. We have a general diet plan lasting for a month drafted by a Possible nutritionist keeping the nutrient requirements in mind.

This diet addresses the lack of protein and fibre in the Indian diet while adding in complex carbs to the equation.

However, there are many variables to be considered while drafting a weight loss diet plan. This is just a general one but we suggest you consult a nutritionist for a detailed one suited to your physiological needs.

How much weight can you lose in a month?

If you follow a healthy balanced diet that doesn’t omit any food group along with an active lifestyle, you can realistically lose close to 3 kilos.

However, this is dependent on many factors and how true you are to your diet and activity plan! Some people may even lose more depending on their metabolism rate.

Step 8: Keep a track

 Weight Loss App

While you may be following the diet plan diligently, it is equally important to keep a tab on the progress.

You could download an app or keep a diet dairy. Remember to confide everything in the diary or the app for an honest and effective weight loss experience.

Step 9: Create a support group or a support circle!

You may not think so, but motivation is an integral part of weight loss. If you are signing in to a program, do so with a friend for support and motivation.

You could alternatively read motivational stories to help give you an extra push. Here is the inspirational story of 4 people who not only lost weight but also gained self-confidence.

How much weight did you lose in 3 months?
