Well a healthy 2 lb a week weight loss would mean 20-25 lbs in that time period.

I've never been able to do a "healthy" 2lb a week, maybe because I'm female? But even at 1lb a week, 11lbs will probably knock off a dress size!

I also tend to do a lot of working out, so I get smaller even without the numbers loss. Toning up is good for dresses too

Healthy is 2lbs a week. So that is about 20-25 pounds. But since you have more weight to lose, you will probably lose more than the average. I'm guessing you could lose about 30-40 pounds. If you lose more than that your at risk of gaining it all back. But losing inches is better than pounds. Don't focused on the weight so much break out a tape measure. Good luck!!!

Usually 10 pounds = one dress size. So, even if you only lose 10 pounds, you will be down one dress size.

i would say 11lbs, as 1 pound a week is a healthy amount. if you have loads to lose, then 2lbs might be managable too?

if you're hoping for between 1-2 lb a week, then 11-22 lb lost with an average of about 17 lb i would say. it all depends on how much you are eating and what your weekly goal is.
