I’d it dangerous to lose 2 pounds in 4 days?

[jennifer_bloom]

I’ve lost around 2 pounds since Wednesday and it’s now Sunday. I think it’s because lobster is very low calorie and so is scallop and vegetables.

[collie22]

i think your okay

[Anonymous]

Not at all.

You can easily fluctuate five pounds a day. Just from differences in hydration and food in your guts. It’s best to weigh in at the same time every day. Such as right before bed or after your morning wiz. Then track the overall trend each week.

While four pounds of real loss is possible over four days. That requires a 1,750 calorie deficit per day.

According to many experts, losing 1–2 pounds (0.45–0.9 kg) per week is a healthy and safe rate (1, 2, 3 ). Losing more than that is considered too fast and could put you at risk of many health problems, including muscle loss, gallstones, nutritional deficiencies, and a drop in metabolism ( 4, 6, 7, 8 ).

It depends on how much you weighed to start with. If you are close to 200 pounds then it’s not serious at all. If you’re closer to 100 pounds then that is a significant weight drop but not something to worry about. You can lose that much in one day if you’ve had a lot of water to drink one day and then hardly any the day after.

It's generally considered unhealthy to lose more than 2 pounds per week, though it depends on how much you weigh. A larger person can lose more weight in a short time without it being too detrimental to their health.

[Jessica405]

Should be fine. Best rate is 3 lbs a week, so 2 lbs in 4 days is pretty close to ideal.

[Subarugirl]

woah hold on there just a second, no one should be losing 3 lbs a week, at max maybe 1.5 lb, anything more than that is not good

[Shark_61695]

My weight can change by more than that throughout the day. I've probably put on half a stone over the last couple of days and will lose it again just as quickly.

[Anonymous]

No not at all. It can even be "water weight". Example you might notice this is you weighed yourself first thing in the morning (without eating or drinking anything), then later on in the day you might see a pound or two difference. That's due to what you've been eating and drinking.

[Boat4Fun]

On Biggest Loser they were losing 10-15 lbs in a week. Be more concerned with the percentage the 2 lbs is compared to your overall weight & health. I've lost 25lbs in 5 days (not by choice). Gained it back in a few months. Not a diet plan for sure.

[DianaWest]

how much were you eating? like 500 calories a day? hell, even if you eat like 1300 calories a day the most you can lose per week is like 0.5 lbs or 1 lb. how do you lose 2 lbs in 4 days unless all you ate was water and lettuce?

[douride2]

Two pounds in 4 days. My weight varies that much or more from 1 day to the next.

[ChiTown33]

No I lost 25 lbs. In a week when I caught covid this summer. Try the covid diet. Lol

[Staximus]

It could also be from dehydration. Drink at least a half gallon a day

[AviatorTom]

There have been times when I've lost and/or gained 5 pounds in one day... mostly water weight. Losing 2 pounds in 4 days is nothing to be concerned about.

[imfreeze95]

It depends on how it happened. Did you just stop eating if so, YES

[Blackcupcake]

I wouldn’t think it's dangerous, it could just be water weight or maybe you used the restroom more... weight fluctuates so I think you're good

[qwert1234]

If you did not do any diet + intense exercise, you may want to check in with your doctor.
Safe weight loss is 2lbs per week.

[JCrockett]

No. You could lose 2 pounds in one dump and be fine.

[JesseJayNeak]

2 pounds is not that much of a difference. 20 maybe but 2?

[DarkWinterNights]

I probably fluctuate about 2-3lbs a day.. you should be fine.

[donnny2367764]

It's not dangerous, but not super healthy. And please for the love of God, don't lose weight where we men like to worship

[Subarugirl]

like a person has any control over where on their bodies they lose weight from, smdh

[donnny2367764]

Hey doll, that's not what I what I meant, don't get lost in translation. I wasn't trying to make anyone think that they could, it was more encouragement than anything else.
by the way I love your profile pic. Nice rack

[Subarugirl]

By the way, I don’t appreciate that remark

[donnny2367764]

Then don't go showing off your tits in your profile picture. Silly girl

[Subarugirl]

The fact I barely have any visible cleavage isn’t showing off Chad…. If I wanted to show off I’d be wearing a bikini….

[donnny2367764]

Well the very little you are showing is enough to please it's audience. And that's a compliment, not a remark or insult

[Subarugirl]

It's not a compliment, objectifying, fuck off.

[donnny2367764]

Ok. You win. Let's make up, you decide what you want me to mal it up to you. And by the way, I'm 6'2 180lbs with green eyes and fair skin. Don't assume my profile pic is me lol

[boobliker]

that 2pounds was most likely water so yes it was or is D

[Redstang88]

That’s well within normal daily weight fluctuation

[Wise4myage]

No, not at all. That's normal in my opinion.

[EaterPeter]

The healthy pace is to loose about lb max a week.

[EaterPeter]

Rest should be done under close professional observation

[EaterPeter]

More / faster weigh loss than above should be done... ***

[EaterPeter]

1.5 Lb max *

[Subarugirl]

That's true but weight fluctuation of about 2 lbs is normal, and wouldn't be considered weight loss unless you are losing 2 lbs ever 4 days for an extended period of time.

[EaterPeter]

I agree

[Hulk30]

that depends on how ya do it

[Subarugirl]

It’s just water weight

[emperor90]

Its not if it is heaps in one go then it is bad

[JohnK123]

Its literally only two pounds how’s that dangerous

[PeterSmith1983]

Nope
