    Well when I first started losing weight it was like 2-3lbs a week for the first 3 months, then after that about 1-1.5lbs a week...now that I am ALMOST at goal, it's more like 2lbs a month! But as long as you are not gaining you're doing something right! Keep pushing and you will get there! I know you want instant gratification and to lose it fast (don't we all!!) but the slower it comes off the more likely it will stay off :)

    A pound a week is fantastic! The reality is we did not all gain the weight we are trying to lose in 2-3 weeks. So It is going to take just as long to take off.
