What is healthy weight loss? It's natural for anyone trying to lose weight to want to lose it very quickly. But evidence shows that people who lose weight gradually and steadily (about 1 to 2 pounds per week) are more successful at keeping weight off. Healthy weight loss isn't just about a diet or program. It's about an ongoing lifestyle that includes long-term changes in daily eating and exercise habits.
Started four months ago to the day, total loss so far is 67 pounds. My first month I dropped at most five pounds, so with that factored in, I'm losing an average of 20 pounds a month. I have MFP configured for 2#/week loss, but I almost always eat 800-1000 calories less than they suggest.
