    It's really going to depend on how much you have to lose in the first place. If you have a significant amount of weight to lose, you'll lose it more quickly than let's say, someone who is working on the "last 10lbs"

    I lost 16, but that's mostly because I joined the Biggest Loser at my gym and I was eating properly and working out about 6 hours a day.....7 days a week. It was tough but it sure worked! Probably not a lifestyle that anyone could keep up for long though.

    How can you work out that many hours and get enough calories in?
