They say 1- 2 pounds a week is reasonable and healthy. Loosing that each week is more stable and has better chance in the long term of keeping it off.
Thus loosing 6 pounds in one month is absolutely fine.
Ps well done :D

I hope so :) I remember being in high school and losing 5-6 pounds a week now it just feels like all the hours at the gym and food sacrifices i make isn't worth it but at least its something.

I definitely found it easier to loose weight in high school rather than now. Sometimes it can take a few weeks for the weight to really come off, just keep up the good work. if you have second perhaps you could look over my posted question www.girlsaskguys.com/.../q1918548-if-a-guy-stays-out-till-a-venue-closes-talking-to-you-and-is-not

I think I heard the healthiest way to do it is to lose 5-7 (?) pounds a week. nothing over that.

i lost that amount in one month :/

[dominiquois]

Thats fine too.

7 pounds in one week is not healthy. [Loosing weight that quickly is not good, and most often people will gain it back in just the same time.]

[dominiquois]

I could be wrong about those numbers but I distinctly remember the doctor saying it being between that range.
