    YES this is normal.. the first week is always the best week. It's becasue you have changed your eating habits to a healthy way. It will taper down the following weeks

    That is my thought. I would give it a couple of weeks and see. 7 pounds is rather signifigant, but I wouldn't sweat it to much unless you have another really drastic week. Just stick to the plan that MFP has designed for you, don't go below your minimum, and enjoy the fact that you are 7 pounds lighter! Gratz on a great first week! :drinker:

    Congratulations on the 7 lbs.It's pretty normal to lose more the 1 st week.Mostly water weight from what I've been told.It slows down.My 1st week at WW,I lost 11 lbs.After that it slowed to about 1-2 lbs a week.:smile::happy:
