How would you deal with a client who wants to lose 60 pounds in a couple of months because of upcoming wedding?
Hello Fabian Ganji,
Been there, done that. I explain how personal training and healthy lifestyle works, then it is their choice to work with me or not. You may want to explain that they are loved and now need to love, accept, and appreciate themselves. That will lower the stress level to aid with weight loss. Now go enjoy the wedding and the rest of your life. Then they should be ready to tackle those healthy lifestyle choices with no problem. I give people every single piece of tidbit I have at my disposal to be their best self.
Take care,
Natalie aka NAPS 2 B Fit.
This is a very hard job to reduce the body weight 60 pounds within 2 months. But you can reduce the body weight in natural way without any side effects with the best natural remedy. Because the artificial method is gives results very quickly but gives some side effects afterwards.

Personally, I don’t think it’s possible, at least not in a healthy way. And even if it is possible in the short term, the long term health consequences are detrimental. Extreme, quick weight loss isn’t in my scope of practice.
You might not want this client. There will be some hard discussions that need to happen, and when you are real with him or her, you might have to agree to part ways.
Have a discussion regarding what is possible and realistic, given the client’s existing weight, ability to exercise (injuries?), time and willingness to exercise, AND ability and willingness to change eating habits.
Then, have a discussion about short versus long term results. Although the wedding might be the reason this client suddenly decides to lose weight, as others have written, weight loss that isn’t backed with behavioral habit change will come back.
