As a mentor, I've typed a hundred times, "The average rate of loss is 10% during induction and 5% per month thereafter..." I'm curious if that really is the average...

When you started, how many pounds did you need to lose?

What was your rate of loss during the 1st two weeks?

How long have you been LCing and what has your rate been since then?


When I started I needed to lose about 40 lbs.
I lost 25% (10#) of that during induction.
I've been LCing for 5 months and have lost another 11 pounds, which equates to about 7% per month.

Hmmmm.... apparently I'm doing better than average!

How are you doing?
