Comment on Is it even possible to drop 20 lbs in a month? Are there any diets for people who want to go to the extreme? Kind of like celebs do for roles?

The first month, yes. In general that is not healthy to aim for.

At one point i used weight watchers to successfully lose a lot of weight - I lost 109 pounds over a couple years as planning for being better able to care for kids. This is a regular program, very much not extreme. However a key part of their program was weekly weigh-ins.

The programs goal was to lose about 2 pounds/week - keeps you healthy with regular weight loss. However everyone had much bigger losses the first couple of weeks. I’m sure I lost more than 20 pounds my first month on the program, but it was water weight, not repeatable. Certainly not a healthy goal
