I lost 16 pounds during my two week induction, and at four months have lost a total of 39 pounds. Not bad to my way of thinking-even with a four week stall. However-
I have never before been on a serious diet (one that lasted more than a week) and started out 100 pounds overweight.
I have low metabolic resistance.
I am not on any medication-including BC pills.
I walk regularly for about 30 minutes.
I keep my carbs around 20.
I have had only two planned cheat meals in the last 4 months.
I am 35 years old.

I think there are so many factors others have to fight against, that not everyone will have the same results. You can only fight the bulge with the weapons you have-can't borrow someone elses metabolism!
