- Ask a doctor.
- In relation to the recommended number of carbs for weight loss, please see the page link, further down this page, listed under Related Questions.
Carbs are only part of the question. one pound of weight lose equals 3500 calories. So to lose one pound a week, you either need to burn 500 calories a day or eat 500 calories less each day or a combination of the too. So what's a calorie? 4 grams of carbohydrate equals one calorie, 4 grams of protein equals one calorie and 9 grams of fat equals one calorie.
Your question is loaded with bombs. First of all, its recommended that a safe weight lose is 3-8 pounds per month. So losing 35 in 3 months is pushing it. Second, exercising 5-6 times a week? Doing what for how long? To lose weight it's better to work out 3 times a week for an hour than it is to work out 7 times a week for 30 minutes. Keep in mind I said for weight lose, not for cardiovascular work.
Use this formula to get to your goal weight. How much you weigh currently is irrelevent. What's important is your goal weight. We burn calories in everything we do everyday, so how many calories does a person need to just maintain? That depends on activity. Someone that sits behind a desk all day burns fewer calories than a nurse that is walking all day.
If you are seditary consider it takes 10-12 calories per pound to maintain weight.
Semi-active 14-16 calories per pound
Active 18-20 calories per pound.
So above you say you want to weigh 140 pounds. Let's say you are seditary. Multiply 140 X 10 - equals 1400 calories to maintain 140 pounds. But you don't weigh 140, you weigh 175. So if you only eat enough calories to maintain 140 pounds, you will gradually (safely) lose weight until you weigh 140. It'll be quick at first and get slower as you near your goal weight.
That's it in a nutshell. Obviously, there are other factors, metablism, exercise, the type of food you eat. Some foods break down better than others
But the bottom line, Calories in / Calories out.
And by the way, alcohol is empty calories that serve zero nutritional value.

What is the best way to lose 40 pounds in 5 months?
To break it down, 40 lbs in 5 month is equivalent to around 2 lbs a week. This is totally doable in a healthy way. Cut your calorie intake by 500 and start exercising for 60 minutes of mid-high intensity cardio each day. A pound is 3500 calories. An hour of exercise burns 500 calories. That's 1000 calories you need to cut each day to make your goal. So if you cut out 500 from your diet and burn 500 from exercise, you'll be in great shape in five months.
