Good luck

Welcome to the WLF and Good luck along the way, I look forward to reading about your SUCCESS!!!

Welcome! It sounds like you're off to a great start!

And to answer your question: yes - many of us started off with crazy high weight loss for the first couple of weeks. This means that you'll probably slow down to 2-3 lbs/week here soon. Most of the first weight is water weight which will come back just as fast if you go back to your old ways.

But be encouraged! You're right on track, and when you see your weight loss slow down, know that it's to be expected. A lot of people get discouraged in the 3rd week and quit.

I know you can do it!
