    It really depends on how much you have to lose overall to start. I lost 10lb in my first week. I used to be huge though 375lb. I was at the gym close to 3 hours a day though because I had school and workouts that was it. You're doing great keep up the good work. I am 245 now and losing about a lb a week. It's unrealistic to think of too much. Hope this helps

    All depends on how overweight you are...Most people say 2lbs a week is safe after the initial water weight loss...
