Unrealistic Goals

I lost and inch off my waist - 45" to 44"!

I looked up the height and weight statistics on some of people who have bodies I admire to see were I need to be:

I assume these are all weights at about 10% body fat.

Lance Armstrong 5' 11" 174 lbs
Tiger Woods 6'1" 185 lbs
Hugh Jackman 6' 2" 220 lbs
Hank Baskett 6' 4" 220 lbs
Terrell Owens 6' 3" 224 lbs
Donavan McNabb 6'2" 240 lbs

Right now I would be 6' 2" 201 lbs

My goal is 6'2" 220 lbs

Simple. I have to loose 30 - 40 lbs of fat and put on 20 - 30 lbs of muscle.
Hard. Doing it.

Is this an unrealistic goal?

If I can gain 3 lbs of muscle a month while lifting and I am going to lift for 6 months, that is 18 lbs of muscle. It is said I may gain 5 lbs of muscle per month but that might be unrealistic.

If I can loose 19% body fat - 30 -40 lbs with tae bo and P90X, diet and a thermogenic supplement over 3 months. Unrealistic? My buddy lost 11% body fat on P90X in 90 days.

My goal deadline may be a little unrealistic but if I continue my eating clean as a lifestyle and I continue to workout I should reach my goal in a year or two. I just think based on what I am doing I can reach it by June '10.

229.0 lbs, 28.7 % BF, 44" waist, 14" arms
