Senior banquet/High School graduation challenge

so i'm not sure exactly when senior banquet is, but i heard it was june 12th. and graduation is june 26th. so i want to challenge myself to lose between 45-58 pounds by senior banquet, and if i get almost there by senior banquet, hope to get there by graduation. is it doable to lose 45-58 pounds by then?

how many cals should i be having a day since i have no fills because i dont have insurance right now and it doesnt look like i will be getting one anytime soon

everytime i want to workout, i end up "not feeling like it anymore" and i know i have to push myself to do it, but it dont work. so i dont know how this is going to work out. can someone motivate me everyday or something? i want to hang up a goal outfit but its not going to happen cause i have no room on my walls and on a hanger doesnt look as motivating.

and one more thing, you can also join me if you want (:

Hi, based on our lapband surgery routine, I would start a liquid diet-shakes, soups, tuna fish, boiled chicken-baked; protein items. Possible to limit yourself to 400 calories a meal 3 times a day and work out-walk for 40 min a day. Meals that are 400 calories may be found at www.400caloriesorless.com. Some good menu's there.

No alcohol, no soft drinks, sugarless drinks, popsicles, and water-6 to 8 glasses a day. If It were me, I would go with soups 1/2 cup with a 1/2 cup vegetable. Eat first then 30 min later drink water. GOOD LUCK and keep us posted on your progress.

I assume you're speaking of your high school senior banquet and graduation? Even if your parents don't have insurance as a student you would qualify for state aid and insurance that would pay for your medical care (including fills) get yourself some insurance and get the fills - or go back to the diet and get up and exercise! You can do it!
