Seven pounds in seven weeks is pretty much perfect: Slow and steady loss, accompanied by adopting/practicing new habits they can keep up forever to stay at a healthy weight, is something that a lot of the long-term successful people here have done.
Losing super fast may feel rewarding at first, but it's hard to keep up long enough to lose a meaningful total amount of weight. I'm your age now, 66, but joined back when I was 59, am now maintaining weight for several years now.
You're doing great: Don't minimize that success! Wishing you continuing steady progress, and betting you'll experience many rewards along the way. You don't have to wait to get all the way to goal weight to start feeling better, looking better, being able to do things easier that used to be hard/impossible. Good stuff!0
