option 1; achievable, realistic, measurable


option 2; realistic, specific, time-based

Answer 1

Hello!! Personally, I would say that his goal is achievable, meaning he could achieve it, but it's simply not realistic. Losing 10 lbs in a week is dangerous to the body, since it is that quickly, therefore I would say that it is not realistic.

I hope I have helped. Have a great night and a Happy New Year!!

Answer 2

option 1: achievable

option 2: time-based
