    There's no magic timetable. Your body picks where the fat comes off and when. I swear my first 8 pounds was all from my face. I'd add in some resistance training to hold on to muscle, if you're eating that low for sure. Don't worry about it being fast, worry about how you feel, and making sustainable lifestyle changes.

    You could try putting your plan into this, and it'll simulate the loss for you.

    (For the expert MFPers out there, it takes all kinds of studies into account to base the simulation on real-world likelihoods and remembers to calculate things like how your change in weight will gradually decrease your deficit.

    Glad you liked it!)

    You didn't gain it overnight and you won't lose it fast. It takes patience and dedication to eating a deficit.
