    Today is actually my 5th weigh-in day. I've lost 7.2 lbs which averages to about 1.5 lbs a week. I was originally setting my calories for a 2 lb a week loss but I recently reduced it to 1.5 lbs. The first two weeks I lost over 2 lbs each week, now it's coming off more slowly. Its frustrating considering I supposedly have a calorie deficit of 700 every day, so I should be losing more. But a loss is a loss so I can't complain :)

    I believe I lost 20lbs the first month/5 weeks and then 14 the second, so far. Next week's weigh-in will round out that number to the final amount.

    I've lost 6 lbs in just over a month. Seems very slow to me. And I haven't lost any inches which is super discouraging.

    I am 75 days of consistent logging, and I've lost nearly 16 lbs. However, I'd lost 14 lbs before I joined MFP - so my weight loss is starting slow now.

    2/17 6.9
    2/24 2.8
    3/3 6.0
    3/10 2.0
    3/17 7.2
    3/24 2.9

    Total: 27.8 pounds in 6 weeks

    Average loss per week: 4.64

    **Note**
    I have IBS, so my weight fluctuates greatly. Also, I have a BMI to date of 38.8, so I am obese, making the weight losses big.

    wow this is a strange thread to resurect. ;)

    I wonder if any on the posters from 9 years ago are still on MFP

    If so, how are you doing now?

    did you reach your goal weight and keep it off?

    of course, people may or may not have done so and just no longer be on the site - but if any are still around, an update would be interesting.
