Talk to the doctor and 1-2 pounds is fine.. only lost 1 pound between March 20 and May 30.. started diet officially as of today

Up to 2 pounds a week is considered safe so 8 pounds a month is perfectly safe, and you only did 4 pounds in 2 months so you could actually do better if you forced yourself too.

I lost 5 pounds and no I don't want to lose more.. I did add that that I was under stress when this weight was lost... Definitely want to make sure I'm getting the right carbs in and cal intake

That's slow. The only way it would be considered fast is if you lost 4 pounds in 12 hours or less.

Typo 5 pounds in 2 months I think it's stress

Consult your doctor. It’s dangerous to ask medical questions in an online forum.

🆗 True

Seems pretty slow to me. 2lbs a month isn't fast at all. 2 or more lbs a week is fast & bordering on too fast for most.

2 lbs/month is doable where you won't get saggy skin

I've been under stress and trying to eat healthy cut back on a lot of stuff

The best, most healthy weight loss is 2lbs per week.

You can lose 1/3rd a day on average and be fine. Assuming you have the weight to lose
