How long should it take for you to lose about forty pounds?

Answer 1

to lose it in the most healthy way and to make sure you don't instantly gain it back, it will take 6-12 months.

Reason for this is the body needs to adjust to your new diet (diet being the new way you eat, don't go on a diet for little bit, and then once you lost the weight quit it, you WILL immediately gain you weight back if you don't maintain that healthy diet)
