Yesterday I did 1,485, so that's pretty close to what you recommend. I feel like I'm being a bit obsessive, but I'm 14st when I should be 12ish and I've developed a belly. Plus I'm going to Grease in sept, and I'l like to be 12st without a belly.

Two stone in one month isn't as radical a weight drop as Ed's kamikaze crash diet, but it's still a biiig push. Back when I was getting slim, I managed an average of half a stone per month (over an eight month period) and felt very satisfied with that. It's about as fast a pace as I felt was achievable without hurting myself or leaving me likely to binge when I stopped (and hence yo-yo back up).
