I lost two pounds this first week and I have kept under my calorie intake along with all the other stuff. I've also been exercising every day too. AND drink my water.

I'm worried that I did something wrong since it seems like other women have lost more than i have in their first week. Am I just paranoid or am I on the right track??

    you are definately on the right track:drinker: Focus on your own accomplishments, and try not to worry about how fast or slow others loose the weight. we are all in it together!

    You are right on track. 1-2 lbs lost is ideal... and don't compare yourself to others because we are all different on the insides (and the outsides).

    You are doing great.:drinker: :drinker:

    A 2 lb loss is perfect. You have 2 little bundles of joy! Things happen for you in two's! Stay healthy for your little ones, any more than 2 and it may be too much.

    :flowerforyou: We are all different! I've been here five days and lost 2 also! I'm glad that's 2 less to go:smile: Good luck & don't worry that your losses differ....I'd rather take it off slowly...I didn't put it all on in a week either!
