    OP stated she wants to lose 7lbs in the first week. Granted she has a lot of weight to lose, but 7lbs is an overly aggressive approach and signals that she has an unrealistic expectation of how quickly she can lose weight.

    I thought OP said she already lost 8 pounds in the first week or two (not sure why she doesn't know how long it's been). The 7 pounds was her goal for this week (week 2 or 3).

    1. The OP didn't know exactly how long it took for her to lose that first 8 lbs, she said "two weeks or maybe one week ago..."
    2. The a good portion of the 8lbs she was referring to was more than likely water weight. My post is about fat loss, not losing water weight.
    3. Regardless of how much she's lost in the past week or two (or whatever the real number is), a goal to lose 7lb/week of fat is unrealistic and unnecessarily aggressive, IMHO.
