    I did CC long before joining MFP and lost quite a lot.
    It's all about determination...:smile:

    The first time, a week.

    This time (that cursed 16 lbs I regained) - six MONTHS.

    It took me 8 weeks before I lost a pound (although I was losing inches); and only after I added about 300 calories more than MFP recommended.

    I started loosing weight the week I started. I also made some "rules" for myself. Only drink alcohol on the weekends, no eating past 9pm, go to the gym at least 4 times a week for an hour, and if I have to eat out - when I order my meal, ask for a to-go box so that when I get my meal I can put half away and save it for tomorrow's lunch or something. That way I don't over eat when I go out :smile:

    I noticed a change during the second week. It took me about a week to really get the hang of the site but once I did it just started flying off.

    It depends on how much you have to lose. I was around 250lbs when i started, and lost 3lbs the first week. If you only have a small amount to lose, it'll take a while.
