    150 pounds? In six months?

    Not to rain on your parade, but I have to ask:

    How? That's around 6 pounds a week, give or take a bit. Not what most experts consider a healthy rate of weight loss.

    *inserts snarky remark about how impossible it is to lose weight that fast because its not "normal" and I am unable to*

    Lmao. Seriously though, great job man! I've lost about 30 in a little over a month, I hope I can even have half of your success!

    That is a lot of weight in a really short time. I looked at your diary, and I noticed that recently there are a LOT of days that are over on calories, sometimes by as much as 3800 for the day. Are you still losing/maintaining?

    I've always found people who are a lot heavier tend to lose weight faster in the first few months. SO yes its about 6lbs a week but it may also take them longer to get off the last bit of weight they want off
