    Do you think 1 lb a week is too much for me. I would like to lose 20 more?

    Well that is hard to answer Sally, I'm going to answer in 2 ways to be as honest and forthcoming as possible.

    1. Do I think it is safe to lose 1 lb a week. Yes, I do think you can do that safely.

    2. Do I think losing 1 lb a week is to much for YOU specifically. Well, that I can't answer...only you can answer that. Earlier you talked about wanting to make this a lifestyle change rather than a crash-diet and that is the right attitude to have. If you find that to lose 1 lb a week you have to contort your habits and life in a way that is uncomfortable for you I would argue that it is more likely that you will quit or get frustrated. Better to take it at the pace that YOU can handle and I cannot tell you what that pace is.
