How long did the fast weight loss last for you?

[KathyRS 29]

I've lost 21 lbs in 22 days. It's boggles my mind. I've lost 11 in 12 days since surgery, and also lost 10 lbs in the 10 day pre-surgery diet. I'm trying hard not to get attached to the rate of weight loss, because I figure it will slow any day. I know I'm not going to be the same as everyone else, but I'm curious how long this faster weight loss lasted for others. Thanks.

I didn't lose that fast, but 2.5 months out I am still losing 3-4 lbs per week.

I haven't lost fast. I may lose 1.5 to 2 a week. and sometimes nothing. I am fine with that.

Mine was all over the place. I haven't gained any along the way yet. I don't weigh very often though, I didn't want to drive myself nuts. I've lost 100 lbs in 10 months and that 10 months FLEW by so I'd say that was fast!!

The first month I lost 17'sh lbs. Last month I lost 3.2. I have PCOS and it's been really slow. My surgery was on Feb 28th/15.

The first 3 weeks to a month is usually the fastest. Then it tapers off to more "normal" weight loss rates of 2-4 pounds a week.

Me? I lost an average of 1-2 pounds a week, because I have the metabolism of a koala.

I lost 14 pounds in my first week. Then it was 25 pounds total for the first three weeks. Then NOTHING for over two weeks. So yeah, don't get too comfy with the initial rapid weight loss. That first stall is brutal.

A month out about 30lbs. I haven't had the stall for 2 weeks yet and I am terrified. I am conditioning myself to stop thinking I'll lose 30 lbs every month because obviously that isn't the case and I do have a terrible metabolism. So yeah it's quick in the first month but as everyone says it'll slow down. Mentally preparing for it.

I'm at my 7th week and it is starting to slow down or should I say stalled... I've lost 50 lbs.. So far and I have been at 257.8 for a week (sw307.6)

I'm at my 7th week and I've lost 35lbs. I weigh everyday and it fluctuates, and I drive myself crazy with it so I don't recommend it. ???? But I haven't started at the gym yet and I'm hoping that will improve things.

[rnsamantha 352]

I did start at the gym (5 days/week) and while I haven't truly stalled, I have noticed the loss slowing down a bit. I am hoping when it comes time to check measurements at the end of this month that I have lost inches rather than pounds. I never measured myself at the beginning, but figure it can't hurt to help keep me motivated when the scale won't budge!

My weight fell off pretty rapidly the first 7 months or so, then slowed for the next 3 or so months until I reached my goal. Since then I've lost another 10-15 pounds and have been maintaining.

I lost what I thought was rapidly for the first 2 weeks, (16 pounds in 17 days) and then I hit the dreaded 3 week stall - which is where I sit currently. It seems it is different for everyone.
