Hello Anon -
Congratulations on your decision to lose weight, and for coming to the EmpowHer site to seek information. Getting to a healthy weight, and maintaining it, can be one of the best ways to take care of your body and enhance your overall health and well-being.

It sounds like you're looking for a standard answer or formula, but there's no such thing. For the type of weight loss you want to undertake you should seek the advice and support of your healthcare provider. He/she can help you determine a healthy weight level and also help you approach your weight loss in a solid, steady manner that also incorporates an exercise program which will help reduce the chances for having an excess skin problem.

To get you started, here are some links to information from a member who underwent a 70 pound weight loss and shares a lot of tips and insights:

Anon, it's going to take time and a lot of work to accomplish a major weight loss. Please review the articles, and the video presentation, and then let us know what you plan to do next and if you have additional questions.

Congratulations again on taking the initial steps toward a healthy weight, and good luck to you in doing so.

Take good care,
Pat
