u want 2 lose 50lbs in 2 months?!!!!! REALLY? don't wanna sound rude but that aint gonna happen without surgery! eat healthy, exercise regularly & even join weight watchers...thats what ive done and ive lost 34lbs in 14 weeks....dont expect a miracle. the weight didn't come on over night, it wont go overnight either. take it one step at a time & aim for 1-2lbs loss a week. may not seem like much but believe me it is. better than it going on & u will be thin eventually. may take a year or 2 but better than hoping for a miracle & being even fatter in 1-2years xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxgood luck

jane, it really depends how fast u can lose weight in one week. if u lose 5 pounds a week, u'll only be halfway to ur goal in july. and 50 pounds by july? that's not healthy maybe u should start with a smaller goal like 10 pounds by july. because what u want to do right now is gonna be yo-yo dieting which is when u lose weight fast, and then gain it right back plus more. so take it slow and i think u'll get to 195 by atleast October IF u take it slow. just my advice ~Annie
