RelMarieS reacted to catwoman7 in Hypothyriodism and VSGthere's typically a big drop the first month (15-25 lbs for most of us - although there are outliers on either side of that), and then you'll settle in to a slower, steady weight loss. I lost 16 lbs the first month, then about 10 lbs a month until month 6 or 7, and then about 5-8 lbs a month until the year mark. After that it was about 2-3 lbs a month until I quit losing somewhere around month 18-20.
of course, your rate of weight loss will depend on a lot of factors - starting BMI, age, gender, metabolic rate, activity level, how closely you stick to your program (the last two being the only factors you really have any control over).
it seems to be slower than most of us would like - at least for a majority of us - so you may OK with that.
