    It depends on how much you've got to lose, but at 1.2lbs a week that's possible. A general guideline to go by for maximum rate of loss is:

    >50lbs to lose: 2lbs/week

    20-50lbs to lose: 1lb/week

    <20lbs to lose: 0.5lbs.week

    If one stone is 10lbs then I have done it.

    definitely. I lost 28 pounds (2 stone) for a 3 month biggest loser contest back in 2013. I was about 45 pounds overweight when I started.

    They say you shouln't lose more than 1-2% per week so if you 250 lbs plus then 1 stone is doable if you weight less then it is probably not going to be to safe.

    I lost 2.7 stone (roughly 38 lbs) from Aug 31 to Nov 11th last year. it depends on your size/starting weight, etc but yes very doable. I was over 100 lbs overweight. Make sure you are eating right, not starving yourself and getting your exercise. it isn't a race, be safe overall and good luck!

    I've lost 18 pounds in 66 days, by day 90 I expect to have lost at least another 6.

    Ive lost 37 pounds since 1st Jan - its coming off around 3 pounds every week. If I put my mind to it - I always loose weight fast .... Of course the flip side is I can pack on weight even faster ! :)
