5 pounds per month ("5 PPM"). Simple as that. Excluding those of you who are super heavy and have really neglected to take care of yourselves and smell like moldy blue cheese, you are a different case, send me a message and we will discuss a goal for you.
In my experience to say, "yaaa gotta lose 80 pounds" sounds very unrealistic and unattainable. Just a fantasy that will probably never happen in this life time. In the past I would lose 10 or 13 pounds and state the obvious, "FUCK THIS, I've worked hard enough, there is no way I can lose 70 more". OMG 70 more! And that would be the end, it would all pile back on. Even 20 or 30 pounds to lose may seem like a tremendous hurdle to many. This is where my little trick of 5 PPM comes into play.
When your mind it set to, "ok 2 pounds this week, that's all, I CAN DO THIS!" every single time you go to put that white chocolate macadamia nut cookie into your mouth, you will definitely think twice and maybe even put the cookie down. Versus, "ok I have to lose 50 pounds by June" no big deal if I eat this fetticini alfredo with jalapenos baked with cheese today because I still have 5 months to lose the weight. Wrong Mother Fucker. You eat that today, and what's it gonna be tomorrow? What excuse are you going to have? NO MORE GDAMN EXCUSES. You absolutely must do it for today. You must think short term, baby steps. I'm not fucking kidding either. Think about it.
So as of right now, a new month is upon us and I am going to lose 5 pounds by the end of it. WHO'S WITH ME? It will be hard for me as these are my last pesky pounds but God give me strength (no I am not a fucking bible thumper I just believe that there may be something out there that can give me crazy amounts of strength) I will try my darndest. Then March will arrive and whether I have lost 3, 4 or 5 sweet ass pounds, I will start over. 5 more pounds in March, easy as pie, I can do this. If you are willing to try, you can do it too. No problem. Just imagine that floppy gunt (aka FUPA) slowly getting smaller, beginning to disappear. Who's that girl with the low hangin' gunt? Not me! Not me!

I find that a lot of people are unsuccessful in reaching their fitness/weight loss goals because they don't see those immediate results. We like immediate gratification and if we don't get it, game over. This is something that you have to get over and train your mind to overcome. You MUST train yourself to be patient for it will take AT LEAST one month of sticking to your plan to start seeing and/or feeling better. All good things take time, and this my friends, is one that takes a lot of it. You MUST keep on truckin'. You are a warrior, you are strong, and you will WIN this fight. Remember, only 5 pounds this month, that's it.
Now get up off your fat fucking ass and go do something that makes you sweaty and for the love of Christ don't eat anything creamy.
