Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

I think it depends a lot on how much you have to lose...the more has got to go, I imagine, the more you can lose in the beginning.
last year I lost 8 kg (which is like 17 lbs) in 6 weeks, so probably about 13 lbs in 4 weeks on a light version of atkins.
now on atkins, I doubt it'll be that much simply because I lost all my water weight before I started Atkins.

I actually lost about 40-43 lbs my first month, From Jan 12th 2004 245lbs thru (around)Feb 14th 2004- I was at 205 by the 9th of Feb, which was 40lbs gone then more lossesthe next few days. Thanks to my Journal, I can look back.

An excerpt from my journal:

inches lost in 10 weeks: 36!

Pounds lost in 10 weeks: 53!!

Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

Thanks Promise, it WAS great. My main thing was lots of fat and lots of water. I think I reacted so well because I was so big and on the brink of diabetes....this was just the thing for me. But whats even better? Here it is 3 years later and I have YET to ever see that 200 lb mark. THAT'S whats great. You CAN keep it off.

My biggest loss was 20 pounds which included induction.

Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

12.5lbs in one month, most of which was during induction.

Edit: DAAAAAMN Disco! 40lbs in one month! That's incredible!

Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

I lost 6 pounds that I know of (I didnt weigh myself before I started so I would guess 10-15 total) and the hubby lost around 25 pounds.

Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

I lost around twenty pounds each month for four consecutive months, mainly because I was so huge.
Disco, you rock. Forty pounds in one month, amazing. I do agree with you Disco, stay the course and you can keep it off forever.

Re: What was the most you lost in one month?

I also lost 12 lbs my first month which included induction... next I lost 6 lbs... so far this month 3.... but the month is only half way through... Wish I could lose 12 again that quick! But also was pre diabetic at the time and couldn't lose on conventional diets... That 12 lbs felt like a complete miracle! I have to remember that and not get impatient... I'm in this for the long haul... 1 year from now I won't be recognizable. I am unstoppable! lol!
