You don't want to lose a lot of weight in a short amount of time. It's not healthy for you. It's typically not good weight loss, and it also typically doesn't stay off. Something else to keep in mind is if your goal is to be stronger, you actually may not see a change on that scale because muscle weighs more than fat

IRVIN ALSO SAYS YOUR RESOLUTION SHOULD ALIGN WITH YOUR INTERESTSHATE RUNNING? DON'T MAKE YOUR GOAL A MARATHON. AND HYDRATE- IF YOU DON'T DRINK ENOUGH AFTER WORKING OUT,. YOUR MUSCLES CAN'T REPAIR PROPERLY AND THE RESULTING SORENESS MAY MAKE YOU WANT TO QUIT.
