    Hi Kimma

    When I lost my first 60 I did it 3/4 pound per week It took a year and a half. I know it seems overwhelming but it is the best way because it will stay off... I have been at my goal weight for 4 years now. I would not set your goal for more than 1 pound per week. It seems like it will take forever but the time will go by so quickly and you will be losing in a healthy way that will stick with you forever! Good luck
