I have looked at old posts and cant find an answer. Is there a formula as to how much of a deficit you can have and still be Healthy. Please feel free to look at my diary if that will help you answer.

    Your diary isn't open

    If you have 75+ pounds to lose, choose 2 pounds a week
    If you have 40-75 pounds to lose, choose 1.5 pounds a week
    If you have 10-40 pounds to lose, choose 1 pound a week
    If you have less than 10 pounds to lose, choose .5 pounds a week
