Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 Isn't this a little extreme? I can't imagine this. I have 250 to lose, but wuldn't expect the last 50 to even begin until almost 2 years....am I missing something?>>>> Not at all....if you are over 400lbs to start its possible to lose half of that at 6-9 months. I only had 106 lbs to lose and already im 9 1/2 months out and down 83 lbs. so thats more than half! The more you weigh the faster you will lose. My hubby was 376 and is now 248 in 9 months!

Guest guest Posted September 4, 2001 Report Share Posted September 4, 2001 Those with BMI's closer to 40 will likely loose their weight in about 1 year.>>> My BMI was 42 and I was just 20 lbs from goal at 9 months Judie Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted September 5, 2001 Report Share Posted September 5, 2001 I thought that was a little extreme, too. I've been told that even 100 lbs. in a year is fast but reasonable. And yes the last lbs will come off slower. Micky 200 lbs in 6 mos? > Isn't this a little extreme? I can't imagine this.
