    No idea. I guess I could average it out, but where I lift so much my weight loss tends to be non-existent to bursty. For example, I have been at the same weight for about 3 weeks now, but I know my body composition is changing. I have only been logging for 75 days so the initial weight loss would screw up trying to figure an average anyway.

    Varies greatly for me, but when I average it out, its 1/2 lb a week.....very slowly!

    I have only been on MFP for 19 weeks, and my average is 2.3 pounds per week. However, the last few weeks it has slowed down to about a pound per week. I try to keep my deficit smallish because I am focusing on strength training, so I upped my calories to able able to include more protein.

    All my pounds are firmly attached.

    I ve lost 48 pds in 50 weeks - I will let someone else do the math - too early to think !

    This was all done with cardio only - next 52 weeks will have cardio and lifting.

    I lose on average 1 lb a week.
    It seems so much slower than that, and I wish it were faster a lot of the time, but I know that at this rate, it's coming off for good and I'm not starving myself.
    I have lost 45 lbs and probably have another 70+ to go.

    I've been on MFP for four months and have lost 20 pounds, so average a pound/week. Some weeks though I didn't really loose other weeks lost 2-4lbs.

    1. Boring and slow, but easy and it adds up.

    Don't be pedantic, i'm sure we all knew what the OP was saying.

    I've been losing 3-5. Today was my 85th day of logging in and I've lost 57 pounds so far. Of course, I also run 30-60 minutes, 5 days a week.
