    Yes 46lb is a lot for only 4 weeks. I had a very fast weight loss 30kg in a month or two and I had gallbladder problems after that, needed an operation to remove gallbladder.

    Well done on your achievement though! But please, take care

    46 pounds would be alot for someone over 200 pounds, but when your over 400, it might not be bad for a start!

    congratulations!

    46lbs might be too much but the bigger you are the faster it comes off especially if you have completely turned your eating habits around.

    Precisely. I'm sure that based on the information we have heard this person is keeping the metabolism going. That's the key. Losing 3lbs a week as a person under 200 lbs is easy if you eat right and keep all your nutrition going properly.

    It is about the types of food you eat and how often. it can be done and in a healthy manner.

    Way to go!!! Keep up the good work

    In my opinion~

    46 pounds is too much in 4 weeks. You will knock your gallbladder out. There are very specific reasons to lose slowly. Nobody at that weight should be on a 1200 calorie diet. You can hurt your organs and cause many problems.

    If I was to guess 2200-2300 calories might be your lowest you should be at.
  • Does anyone have any ideas for boosting metabolism? I have lost 36 pounds in about 5 months doing Zumba and WW. But, I have been at a plateau for almost 3 months now...going up only a pound and staying there....would really appreciate anyone's advice....I am 56 so the metabolism is slow anyway, but, I know I can lose the weight, as I've already dropped a great deal.....I want to lose 30 more...I started out at 196, and am so happy.....any suggestions would be great...a nurse friend told me to try hgc?????
