  • Weightlosss

    Ok so I am wondering if people with larger amounts to lose weight lose weight quicker?
    Im just curious because I have about 27lbs to lose and Im wondering if it will take longer because I dont have say 50-100lbs? Does anyone know? Silly question I guess, but I notice that ppl who have more weight to lose seem to lose the most during induction. Just curious.

    First goal met 10lbs down

    No one is the same but yes typically if you are a guy or the heavier you are the quicker it will drop. Also taller people tend to lose quicker than shorter people. Not fair for short women LOL

        the total pounds lost will be bigger and faster for a superheavyweight, but the percent of the weight you need to lose should be compreble on Atkins. Such as if you need to lose 10 pounds then 1 pound would be 10% and that same 10% for a superheavyweight like I was would be 14 pounds.

          lets say a 5'6'' man might weigh....300 and lose 20 lbs during induction, which is what 6%...and a 5'2'' woman migt weight 240 and lose 15 lbs, which is less "lbs" but its still 6%. Hope it helps xD

            So in other words...i have 27lbs to lose...I should expect to lose 2.7lbs in induction? Lol Ok well I was never good at math...but I'll just take it as it comes off! Lol
