Hi kimba18; I have similar starting weight and goal as you, and present weight. I don't have an answer for you, but am eagerly waiting to see what kind of answers you get. I have weighed over 200 lbs for about 3 years now and can't wait to get under 200! I hope you get some answers soon. I think we ought to be able to lose down to 199 in about 6 weeks, at a guess. That would be, what, about 2-2.5 pounds per week? Well, as you can see, I don't know any more than you do; I'm just so excited to have found LC eating and this website! I am so excited about talking with people who are succeeding at this!
