    you’ve lost 26 pounds in six weeks. I reading that correctly?

    That’s 4.5 or more per week.

    That’s an unsafe rate of loss, unless you are maybe 300+ pounds.

    I sincerely hope you’re doing this under (real and not non- medically licensed weight loss clinic) medical supervision.

    Don’t harm your one and only body, the one that’s gotten you to 63, in pursuit of fast loss.

    And make sure you’re creating habits that will hold you through loss and into maintenance, as well as exercising to maintain muscle.

    and PS, I’m dating this out of genuine concern, not “hating” or finger wagging.

    I’ve been through my own transformation, ten sizes down and maintaining for several years. The profile pic was a year and a half into my own loss.)


    I want everyone to enjoy the “new them”, but doing it wisely and informed.
