Hi Shannon
I think the most I've ever see someone consistently loose is one lady in the forum who said she drops about 2.5 pounds every week. Others might do more but I haven't read anyone doing it. When I first went on induction I seem to recall dropping 7 pounds the first week (Water weight they call it, felt great what ever it was!!) then I settled into the pattern of 1.5 a week until I stalled in September and again in December. If I were you I would try for 215. If you surpass that then double bonus!!
I don’t want to sound like I’m lecturing or being a party pooper but I have seen so many people introduce themselves and after a few weeks they are gone. Have to figure that they get discouraged and quit because they set themselves up for failure by thinking that the pounds are just going to vanish overnight.
Anyway whatever you decide, you have made the right choice in joining the forum. Everyone here is supportive and generous with praise and encouragement.
