Not to burst your bubble, but that's impossible. 35 pounds is about 16kg, so you're trying to lose 1kg every 4 days. You need a calorie deficit of 7000 to lose 1kg, or almost 2000 per day to lose 1kg in 4 days. That means you need to either live off of practically nothing for 2 months straight, or do very heavy workouts for 2 months straight and still eat very little. I lost 18kg / 40 pounds in 1,5 years which was surprisingly easy, but I've been working out, playing various sports all my life. Take it from someone who walked the walk, there is no way in hell you are going to lose 35 pounds in 2 months.. not in a healthy way, anyway.

Even if the goal is unrealistic that was really rude. I hope you got your money back or at least a write up against that dude SOB.

I lost 30 in two months from essentially just not eating (literally - maybe 50 kCal in a week) and, as a result, started having gallbladder attacks that necessitated surgery to take it out. Not healthy, not a good time. It may be POSSIBLE if you're morbidly obese to lose 35 in two months while eating a reasonable diet, a possibility people here seem to be overlooking, but still...slower loss is better. Don't make it a speed run. That being said, your instructor's an asshole. Take his advice and find another gym - and make sure the gym knows why.

I suggest you join myfitnesspal. Its an app where you track your food and exercise, it'll tell you how many calories you should be eating to lose a max of 2 pounds a week which is the most you should lose a week. If you follow it you'll lose about 10 a month.

I'd take his advise and do go to another gym. And while you're at it, report them to a manager.

If someone told me they want to lose 35lb in two months, I'd take it as either a psychological concern or a joke.

Message me. I'll help you.

I was 398lbs at one point. If I did the 1-2 lbs a week thing, I'd still be around 350 Message me and I'll help you

Okay, the personal trainer could have been more understanding and professional about it, but they had the right of it. Losing that much weight that fast is extremely unhealthy---even if you are morbidly obese or something like that. First of all it'll kill your metabolism setting you up for weight rebound. It'll also run heck on your organs and probably your joints if you are as over weight as you seem to think you are. Speaking as someone who has lost over sixty pounds----and kept it off---your best bet is to develop a healthier lifestyle. Note I said lifestyle, not diet or weight loss plan. You need to eat better and exercise in such a fashion that you can keep doing it in the long run. That sixty pounds I lost took me three years to lose. That's twenty pounds a year. Yes I became impatient a lot, but it paid off in the long run. My first piece of advice is throw out the scale and buy a measuring tape. If you are exercising to lose weight you will gain muscle and lose fat. At one point during the beginning of my journey I gained back three pounds and lost two inches of waist and hip and one and a half of bust. This as I said means I lost fat and gained muscle which is healthy. Additionally, the more muscle you have the higher your metabolism runs. You'll have to eat for your activity level. I have women who weigh the exact same as I do with waistlines ten inches bigger than mine who eat like birds while I pile my plate. Muscle weighs more than fat and takes more calories to maintain. If you don't eat probably while working out your body will go into famine mode and try to retain the fat. Now while I could go on for pages I'll give you one last piece of advice. Hire a trainer---preferably one who has a bit of training about nutrition---and listen to them. It takes time to get fit and lean. Do your research, for goodness sake stay away from diet drinks, and take it in steps. Going full throttle at the beginning is setting yourself up for burnout and probable injury which will keep you from exercising. Good luck on getting healthy OP.

Don't listen to he haters. Set your goal and achieve it. And find a trainer who's not a total knob.
