I am over a hundred pounds overweight for my height/fame. I see that everyone says you should not lose more than a pound or so a week. I am wondering, I have lost 14lbs in two weeks. I have been exercising and eating right. Is it because I am so heavy that I lost the weight so quickly? And....is that why I cannot tell a difference in my body/clothes? Is it water weight?

    When you have quite a bit to lose, it makes sense that, in the beginning, it comes off quicker. Most of it will be water weight and your body adjusting to the change in your eating habits. As long as you don't eat below your goal (at least, not all the time) then you shouldn't have a problem. The loss will slow down as your body adjusts.
