Newbie - 14lbs/8weeks

hi , i have about 10 LBS or so to lose but am alot older than you (49) so I dont think I can lose so fast! I have lost 4 lbs so far (I wanted to lose 14lbs, so that is why I noticed your post!) I have lost 4 lbs in 2 weeks so far, 2lbs a week, but it feels slow going, I am exercising like crazy...pilates in the am, tae bo in the afternoon after work, and walking when i can to and from work ..and trying to keep at 1200 to 1500 cal..it is not easy! but I am glad I am doing it! Keep on keppin on girlfriend and good luck! Dee
