Default Losing weight too fast?

I've been on atkins since October 20th, and I've already lost about 50lbs. I'm averaging about 6.5lbs a week right now, and I'm wondering if I'm losing too fast? I'm a big guy, and need to lose a lot of weight (I'm 6'4" and started at 375lbs), but I'm wondering if this extreme weight loss is a bad thing or not. I've stayed on induction up until now as that's what's been getting me results. I initially planned to stay on induction until I reach my goal of 270lbs, but I don't know whether or not that's a good idea. Is it bad to lose weight this fast?
