Largest loss in one week??

[celineybeanie]

Pretty self explanatory really... How much did you lose in your first week and What's the most you've ever lost in one week?? Just curious really as I overheard two ladies talking in group about a friend that lost 12lb in one week.

I lost 9lbs in week 1.

i lost 10lb in my 1st week! have been really battling it though now i'm 2 years in and been target for a year.

I lost 8.5lbs in my first week.

5lbs was my biggest weekly loss

5 lb too.

I had my first weigh in last night and lost 3.5 and just wondered if it was possible to lose such a large amount. Well done pinkoneblueone!!!

I lost zero in my first week and lost 3lb in my second. Averaging half a pound a week now it's so annoying! Jealous of those who lose big

I lost 8lb in my first week when I first joined, then rejoined in Jan and lost 4.5lb.

Mulligrubs, don't get disheartened. A lady at my group has rarely lost more than a pound a week and is now over 4 stone lighter!

3lb the first week. Have averaged 2lb a week since starting but my goal was 1lb a week so am happy (want to loose 52lbs so have the year to do it in).

Slow and steady wins the race

8.5lbs first week, 3lbs second week, and will see how the 3rd week goes - fully expect to slow down soon and average 1 - 2 lbs a week

I lost 9lbs in my first week, and have twice lost 7lbs in a week. My sister lost a stone in her first week! 14.5lbs in fact . Everyone was amazed, the leader said it was the biggest loss she'd ever seen in a woman. (She once had a man who lost 16lbs in his first week!)

16lb in one week!! That's amazing!! So is your sisters loss!!!!!

I only lost 2.5lb in my first week but 2nd week was my biggest loss at 5lb.

This week was my 1st week and I lost 9.5lb - I am huge though with 9 stone to loose.

It depends very much on how much you have to lose - the more you have to lose the greater your initial loss will be. 3- 5% of your starting weight would be a really good result.

My cousin regularly lost 15- 16 lbs in a week.

He had a lot to lose though 20 stone.

He got to 18 stone in two years then hit a brick wall. He would lose the stone and the following week put it back on.

He could really eat. In fact I don't think he'd mind if I said he was a greedy eater. We went to the harvester once and he ate 12 of those rolls with two plates of salad, his main course and dessert sometimes finishing with another roll and salad. If I left anything, which I usually do he would eat that as well.

If he didn't get a hold of it ( this was his cheat day after losing a stone) that stone would be on the following week.

Those losses are massive. The most I've ever lost is 2.5lb. Then Id only like to get 14lb off to be 11st 6. I can put 4 on in a weekend away!!!!

I lost 7lb in the first week.

I lost 3 in my first week but my biggest loss has been 5

I lost 3.5lbs in my first week and my biggest loss was 5.5lbs in week three.

I'm now in week 7 and have lost 20lbs altogether without finding it too hard to stick to.

My biggest has been 4lb. That was my first and second week. I have now lost 19.5 lb in 8 weeks. I want to keep them momentum up as I get married at the end of July. What have people done differently for their biggest weight loss weeks (unless it was their 1st couple)?

I lost 3 in my first week...my biggest loss has been 5 and a half, but, I stayed the same the next week for no real reason, so I figure it was two weeks worth really, lol.

Averaged out, I lose a lb and a quarter a week, but over 18 months that takes me to a few lbs short of 7 stones.
