    What can I do in 6 months?

    @sn33zy90 Do a slight caloric deficit. If you loses about 2 pinned or week, you will lose about 52 pounds in 6 months. If this is too much for you, adjust your diet as needed. Without money, you can do r/bodyweightfitness exercises and walk each day. Advance to jogging as you get more fit.
