Hey, i was just watching the Biggest Loser and im surprised how much weight these guys loose in a week. They lose like 5-12 lbs a week. Some are around the same weight as me but they lose so much more. Do any of you get results like this? I thought a healthy goal to lose was like 1-2lbs per week but when the trainers hear how much weight people lose they kind of get disapointed if its like 1-3. I guess the expert help they get helps.

Then again it is a TV Show.

You will likely lose more in the beginning. It gets harder to lose the farther along you go.

Also follower, those people are working out 3-4 hours a day or more. Not to mention they are monitored 24/7!!

Make realistic goals and you'll be more likely to stick with it!
