Hi, hpah.. I think the rate of loss can be a very individual thing. There are so many factors to consider. For me, it hasn't been very fast. I've been CAD-ing since the end of April, and CALP-ing since July. So far, I've lost exactly 20 pounds. Now--I'm perimenopausal, on lots of meds, etc., so I would expect my loss to be slower. There are things that you can do to speed up the loss--for example, I've recently given up "real" sugar and processed flour (pretty much), and my loss is speeding up. I also try to keep my fat relatively low. Overall, it's been about 2 1/2 - 3 pounds per month. That's OK with me--I'll get there.. I think the best advice would be to try it (for at least a few weeks-to give it a fair shot), and see how you feel (you'll feel great, I promise). It won't take you long at all to see what things you need to eliminate or add, to make it successful for you. But--it WILL work...
