If I start today 8/04/2017 and stick to 1600 cals per day do you think it is a realistic target for me to expect to lose 1.5st by 23/06/2017 without exercise (Have a disability)

That's 10 weeks to lose 19lb nearly 2 lb a week. It's do able but would need to be very focused and not cheat on anything. Goodo luck were all behind you

Hi and welcome, ladikool :)

It's really not possible to predict weight loss, because we're all very different.

Take a look at the Pinned posts section to the right of your screen (bottom if you're using a mobile), read the Welcome Newbie thread, then move through to the challenges, where we hope you'll find at least one that will appeal to you.

Move down to the Topics, to find a variety of threads, collated into specific topics for ease of access and we ask that you also 'file' your own threads, so that others won't miss your important news.

Take a look at the 12 week plan, as a lot of people have been successful with it, making sure to enter your details into the BMI calculator, to get a calorie allowance tailored to your personal requirements. Don't forget to take your starting measurements and a 'before' picture, as they can be very motivating on days that the scales refuse to co-operate.

We run daily weigh-in's and you'd be very welcome to join us. The threads can always be found in the Events section, to the right of the home page, bottom on a mobile.

We've found that to get the best out of this community, we need to be active on the forum, as it's where we exchange information, get motivation and inspiration and make friends. We hope that you'll join us here, regularly, too.

It's only left for me to wish you well on your journey :)

1.5 stone all rather depends on your height, age, starting weight and goal weight. 1600 cals may shift some of it but you may need to drop to 1400 for the final stone. Good luck, every little helps.

Whatever you lose you will feel better ladikool23 😊 Eating healthily will improve your hair, skin etc 😊

Is there no exercise at all that you can do?
