How much weight are you losing on average a week? I am losing about 1/2 a pound. Just curious what others are losing!

    It also depends how much you have to lose (from your ticker it doesn't look like you have a lot to go?). I have lost 21 pounds in 5 months, but it was definitely not a linear loss.
  • Don't even get me started on this! lol. Sometimes I do everything perfect and lose nothing and sometimes I slide a litle into left field and have an out of nowhere loss (which stays off). Sometimes its a half lb and sometimes a lb. I used to have 2 lb losses consistantly but that has slowed since working out hard and lifting. I go with the above statement. Any loss is a great loss!

    I have about 3-4kg left to lose.. So roughly 8-10lbs.. And they always say the last 10lbs are the hardest! But I'm not worried about the scale moving slow as I want to lose body fat and do it the healthy way. I love the energy I have eating this way and I never want to go back to VLCD!

    My weight fluctuates up and down. I could be down 0.5 lbs one week and be up 1-2 lbs the next week. The fluctuations don’t even faze me anymore. The inches, however, are shrinking so I’m thankful for that.

    I gained a total of 24 pounds since starting EM2WL~ 16 of it on a 6 week Reset.

    I am in Week 3 of Cut and have lost 4.5 of it but I have changed what I'm eating DRAMATICALLY on Cut soooo.......

    I am also going to TRY to keep to my vow of STAYING OFF THE SCALE but, ya know, sometimes ya just GOTTA look!:blushing:

    Hey Blondie!

    I'm not on cut yet (starts on Monday :bigsmile:) but I totally agree that the main aim should be to lose body fat, however long that takes, because a VLCD is sooooo outta the question :)

    Bottom line - I'd rather lose body fat slowly than muscle mass quickly, that's for sure!

    Best of luck on your journey :)
