Can this be possible??? He still eats like a pig, but I know that he isn't eating his proper calories for the day. How come so fast, 9 pounds in 6 days. What a shocker?

    A large proportion is probably water loss. Also, he may have a lot more to lose than you, thus faster weight loss.

    Men lose faster than woman.

    Men lose fat much faster than women, generally speaking. It's quite unfair >:( We also carry more fat than them, generally speaking.

    Only?

    4 lbs in 6 days is great. I'm lucky if I lose 4lbs in a month.

    Also, in the beginning weight comes off faster. Most of it's water. And if he has more to lose, then yes, his rate will be faster. It'll even out. Don't compare yourself to others. It's not a competition.

    Thanks. I am proud though with this 4 pounds off! Very! But I know its water weight. He is 5'8" 180 starting weight. Me 160 5'5" starting. Girls have all the fat on them. He, just got a smaller tummy too. Grrrr. Genetics haha :)
