You're right though - just a 1/2 pound a week with exercise (4 sessions, 500 calories burned per session which equates to around 1 hour per session of pretty solid exercise), 3/4ths of a pound a week with diet and you're talking real weight loss at about 6 pounds per month...

Fair enough - fair enough.

Yeah...and you could prolly push that to 3/4lb per week with exercise easily if you do 6 days/week, which spleen mentioned he had done before. another 3/4 or so with diet and portion control and bam...1.5lbs/week brings you 6lbs/month, which is quite solid.
