Smile Hi Journey!

First of all, it looks like you've done a FANTASTIC job with your weight loss so far. 10 lbs. in a week, for someone with little to lose like you, is really excellent!! The average rate of loss is 10% of your desired weight loss during induction and then 5% per month thereafter. For you that would equate to a 3 lb. loss during induction....So you are 7 lbs. ahead of the game here! 1-2 pounds per month from now on would be considered a good, healthy rate. A "stall" isn't a true stall until there's been no weight loss or inches lost for 6 weeks or more. A plateau right after induction is more common than not.... so you're apparently quite normal.

This is no time to get discouraged!! You're doing GREAT!!!
