I am down 21 lbs in my first two months and would just like to compare my loss to others. I am 5ft 5in and currently at 135lbs.

Age has a lot to do with it. I used to lose weight fast when I was young. When you get older, it just seems a bit harder.1

In my first 2 months I lost 10 pounds.0

40 pounds, but quite a bit of that was water.0

I think that 6lbs of my loss was water because that's what I lost in the first week...1

I'll add that I'm 24 years old and live a moderately active lifestyle.0

On the morning of March 26 I weighed 246. I began January 25 at 272.4. That's 26.4 lb in the first 2 months.1

10 pounds in the first two months0

Hit my goal of 30lbs lost in the first two minths a few years ago at age 43. I lose easily though because of my activity level.
Everybody loses at different paces because of all the variables involved.0 -
40 year old male and knocked out 35 pounds between 12/20/15-2/20/16. I did not do it healthily though. I weigh 6 pounds more now but look so much better because a) I exercise and b) I actually eat.0

Just started like 45 days ago, I lost 17 lbs so far Feels so good to see some results.1

20 pounds, and I'm a 41 year old mother of 3...I don't think age has anything to do with it other than loss of muscle due to inactivity.
But I do think it's harder for short people...when the minimum possible calorie intake only allows you to lose 1 pound a week, the deck feels stacked sometimes you need to be creative.2 -
15, but the first five were courtesy of Noro. ><0

The first two months was a pretty big loss. I think around 17 pounds. It's gone down every month after that though. I'm losing around 4-5 lbs per month now I believe. I'm trying to contribute it to being in a healthy weight range for my body now though...although I could probably straighten out my diet a little more.0

I was down 34+ lb my first two months. But I'm a fat kid.1

No two people will be the same. How much you are going to lose in the first 2 months depends on how much you HAVE to lose in the first place. If you only have 20 to lose you are not going to lose the same as someone who has 90 or more.
@OP losing 21 lbs in 2 months for you is A LOT. Starting at 156 how much can you possibly need to lose? 40 lbs?? maybe?? you shouldn't be aiming for any more than about .5 to 1 lb / week. That's 4 - 6 lbs a MONTH. Your current rate of loss is not sustainable or healthy for someone your size.2 -
22 pounds in the first 2 months; started at 211, age 45.0

Just a few days short of 2 months but lost 40lbs so far. I went from a sedentary lifestyle of 1,000 or fewer steps a day to 10k to 20k steps a day also changed diet to eliminate massive amounts of liquid calories.3
