I have a question my sister went to her doctor to get a script for diet pills, she been on them for 2 weeks now and lost 20 lbs. Is that to much weight to lose so fast she said she do good if she eat 500 calories a day and swears she feel great.

    OP - 8 lbs in a month is great and you should be very proud of yourself. Weight loss isn't linear, but the longer you take to learn good lifelong habits the healthier you will be. I wouldn't waste much time trying to convince your sister unless you see some negative health effects her doctor isn't aware of.
