Yes, and more. I dropped 40 pounds in about a month. Although it was due to extreme stress, so I don’t recommend that. But, it is physically possible, so there are other routes you can try.
You’ve probably heard it before, but the key to quick fat loss is dropping carbs, including beer. Sorry.
Track your carbs using a macro tracking app, because you don’t know how many carbs you are eating, you just don’t, and you’ll be surprised. Once you learn which foods are full of carbs, you can stop using the app, it’s just a learning tool, not something you need to keep doing.
Get it below 100g a day, and watch the fat burn away, and you’ll start feeling so much better, after the first couple of weeks. It can be a hard adjustment for some people, but it’s worth it.
Exercise is only about 20% of it, diet is 80%, which makes sense. It’s much easier to not consume the food in the first place, than to burn it off after it’s already fat.
However, to be healthy, not just lose fat, you need to do both diet and exercise. That’s why it’s always presented that way--“diet AND exercise”, not “diet OR exercise”.
It’s best to make the commitment to a permanent lifestyle change, rather than just aiming for a goal weight and then going back to drinking beer every day. You’ll QUICKLY gain the fat back, faster than you lost it, and that is disheartening.
If you just give up, you could end up with type 2 diabetes in 15 or 20 years, and that makes being old much worse. So, it’s worth the effort.
