    Most everything I've ever read says to shoot for 1-2 pounds a week at the most for losing weight. I've lost more and I've lost less, so I would presume they mean on average.

    I have lost 65-70 lbs, and it has taken me 10-11 months to do so. I have about this much more, and hope to have it done by my 2 year mark. We shall see! If I don't, no big deal, I will continue to work on it.

    Started Feb 8th 2012. Sept 2012 I was 1kg below goal weight. Now I'm almost 10kg below that & that is without even trying. 7 months total to lose it all... now 1.5 years keeping it off.

    From highest to lowest took about 18 months and I lost 85lb. I'm back on the bandwagon after gaining 40 back and I'm down 11 in the last month, though I'm expecting it to slow down next month. Hoping to be back in the maintenance saddle (as it were) by September/October, but that's just an ambitious goal.

    I've lost 9 pounds so far and it's been about 2 months. My weight loss journey is very slow considering I don't have much to lose and I'm already a very active person in general.

    I've lost 18 lbs since January 3rd. About 4-5 lbs a month, in almost 4 months. My goal is to lose 50 lbs by Christmas.
