Hi, i seem to have lost 4 lbs already and it has only been 5 days, to my amazement shock and disgust and some maths i have halved my calories from average 12500 to 6500 in just these 5 days. Will this be mostly water? Would be great but i dont think this is going to happen every week is it. I dont feel bloated like i used too either.

It is mostly water and will probably slow down to 1-2 pounds a week. Some weeks you won't lose at all while others you may lose more.0

Yes, this is mostly water, I would assume. The first 20 will come off fast!! Don't worry about what it's comprised of, just go with it and enjoy the new you!0

That is fantastic! I lost 4 lbs the first week too! I average about 2 pounds a week now, but if you keep that exercise up and eating right spot-on you might be able to pull it off again! wtg on the weight loss! That truly is great!!0
