    I dropped 11kgs (24lbs) in 6 weeks - I planned (and managed) to keep muscle mass whilst dropping excess baggage! I started @ approx 95kgs and recently hit 80kgs. Now I'm planning to stay @ 82ish kgs, I always had a least 1 deliberate blowout per week (oh yeah, still do). I rate fat % more then weight. I laugh at BMI as I'm I'm still close to overweight (ha! - worst ever invented fat check)! Even when I was 95kgs I had 15% body fat but then I was overweight to the point when I renewed by house insurance, they sent a nurse! When she met me, her response was, oh, you're one of those sporty like people! The world should ditch BMI, everyone should get some fat % scales! My top tip, when you weigh yourself, don't beat yourself up if you go up in weight 1 day, every week my weight would shoot up just before it would drop and let's not forget, muscle is heavier then fat folks :)

    Good luck for those still on their journey!

    I have lost 13 pounds in 2 months...not being really strict since I had two, week long vacations during this period. More focused starting this month with no trips planned for a while. I probably could have done better my first two months if I had stayed on track and not let myself indulge on vacation, but I don't regret it. It just motivates me to work harder at being healthier.

    23.8 lbs since January 1st, 2012. This week there was a bbq at work so I totally pigged out, I'll be headed out of town this weekend and then off to Disneyland next week so I'm really not looking forward to stepping on the scale when I get back. But oh well, it's a slow process that I'm sticking to!

    I have lost about 15lbs in 5months. Don't really need to lose much more.

    Some would say that is pretty slow, but I am happy with it. Plus, slow and steady wins the race. The faster you drop it the easier it is to pick it back up. I want to be able to take it off and keep it off.

    Not to mention, I have lost way more inches...probably built some muscle along the way.

    I think it depends on how much weight you are trying to lose. I find it takes me a bout a week and a half to loose a pound, but that because its really just vanity weight loss. My body is pretty healthy, it isnt trying to shed a ton of extra weight. Then if you are dieting it might even try to reserve that weight since you obviously are going through a famine haha.
    A pound a week is a very healthy goal, especially if you do not have a ton of weight to lose.

    I would say if your over 80 lbs overweight it could be do able just because the bigger you are the more you burn but when you get to that last 20 healthy is probably like 5-8lbs in a month
