I lost 22# in 5 months, then lost 6# in the following 7 months. So, as you can see, the closer you get to goal, the slower it comes off! It's true!!
The "formula" for expected weight loss is 10# during induction, then 5% every month thereafter.... so if you have 50# to lose, you should be satisfied with 5# during induction, then 2.5# per month. Don't forget that this gets adjusted downward as you lose weight. Like with me, at this point I should expect to lose about 1/2# per month. Yes, it's slow right now, but it IS still moving in the right direction!!!
Hope that helps.
