Lost weight very fast

We need a little more information, you only mention running everyday for 30mins, that alone would not be enough to lose over 6lbs in a month.

Are you also logging your calories in your food diary? If so, people are going to request that you make it available to the public.

My apologies, I'm a bit of a newbie. I am 5'6 25 year old male weighing around 10 stone 9 pounds. I set a calorie limit of 1, 450 a day I eat a very low fat diet, eat plenty of fruits & fish. I don't log my calories in my food diary. Should I be doing this on MFP?

I suppose as long as you are keeping track of your calories on a piece of paper or something, it's not necessary to log it into your food diary in MFP, but it does make it a lot harder for people to help you.

While a low fat diet isn't need to lose weight, eating plenty of protein can help keep you feeling fuller, longer. Please remember that many vitamins are only fat soluble, which means that you must ingest fat in order to absorb them, so do not cut out good fats from your diet.

Examples of healthy fats are, nuts, avocados and olive oil.

According to your stats you:

Maintain your current weight with zero exercise on 1994 calories per day.

Eating 1450 calories a day plus 30 mins of running, you're probably running a deficit of around 700 calories per day, or 5.6lbs per month.

It's entirely possible that the first week you lose a little bit of water weight from your glycogen stores becoming depleted from dieting and exercising.

I would recommend upping your calories by at least 150 so you don't lose too much muscle, a 700 calorie deficit a day is a little aggressive considering you do not have very much weight to lose.
