I have a strange question. Is there such thing as losing too much weight too fast? I am consistently losing 4 pounds a week. Then yesterday I dropped another 4 pounds. So I’ve lost a total of 30 pounds in 6. 5 weeks. I feel great, eating STRICT taking all my vitamins and 75 oz of water. I’m concerned.

It depends on how heavy you are. If someone is 300 + lbs they will loose more weight than someone who is way less and has less to loose.

You have a lot to lose so the percent of your weight the 4 pounds represents is the same percent as someone with half as much to lose who averages 2 lbs per week. You are fine.

Don’t worry. You are good and lucky. Everyone has different metabolism and different weight. Some loose slowly some fast. The point is you are obeying the rules and you are loosing weight. Congratulations. Keep going

@plasm89502 You can't lose more than YOUR body will lose. The average is 2-3 per week. You are already at the top.

Please don’t worry. I had a similar experience in my first 6 weeks. I hit a plateau eventually. Now things are moving in the right direction again. Hang in there, you’re doing great!

I’ve been losing 5 lbs a week as well. I do expect it to even out. I’m worried I’ll be so let down when I do.

My first go round I was the same way and had no ill effects. This is my second time on IP and wt loss is much slower this time around
