Losing too much/plateau?

Hey everyone! I've been at this for about 3 weeks, and last week I lost 7-10 lbs, and this week I haven't weighed in yet but i know I've lost 10.5" overall, 4" off my hips. I'm astounded because I've never had success like this before. But it makes me wonder, am I losing it too fast?

Do you think I'm going to pleateau soon?

    That is a HUGE loss for one week. It is probably just water weight that you lost so keep in mind you probably wont see results like that most weeks.

    I agree. My friend and my husband both lost a bunch right at first, but then slowed down.( It took me 2-3 months to lose that much!) I'm sure it was just water weight. So don't get discouraged when it slows down. Slow and steady is what I keep telling myself when it seems like it is taking forever to lose. :smile:
