14 weeks- 61lbs lost that gives an average of 4.3 lbs/week (but the first week loss really helps average). I have only used unrestricted choices thru-out program so I believe this has helped - wondering if this holds true for others? Also, does greater starting weight factor in? Hope everyone has great WI's...

22 lbs in 4 weeks; average 5.5lbs per week. I don't expect this average to hold. I would certainly like it to, but expect the average to eventually go to 2-3lbs per week.

WOW! you people are having amazing weight loss results! Has anyone incorporated excercise with their program to increase the weight loss?
Keep up the good work!:D:D:D

My average over a 38 week period is 3.2lbs a week. I have JUST in the last 2 weeks started doing Yoga on the Wii. I have had NO difference in the Weight losses

1st week I lost 4 lbs, 2nd week 1.6 lbs and I have my third WI on Friday.

I've lost 81 lbs. in 23 weeks for an average of 3.5 lbs. per week without exercise. (I'm in Phase 3 now; so, I've started exercising recently.)

I still average around 3.5 a week. Sometimes more or less.

Oh wow, I'm on day 2 so first WI is still relatively far away but even HALF of your results is enough to keep me going strong! That has to be better than bread lol. CONGRATS!!!! :bravo:

I usually lose 2 or 3 lbs a week

I have had 4 WI and it averages out to 5.5 pounds a week! I don't know how much that will slow down, because I don't eat ANY restricted foods, my coach only allows me to have 3 unrestricted per day right now. So I am hoping to continue with at least a 3-4 lbs weight loss per week! But heck, I would be happy with anything as long as those numbers keep going down and don't go up!!

I could be wrong, but I would say on average people tend to lose a bit more. But, what do I know?! Just my opinion, I have for the past 4 weeks lost 5.5 lbs (almost exactly actually) each week, and am quite happy with my food intake! So I don't think I will every add the restricteds, just because I never had them, so I cant miss them, and why add more carbs/cals/fats if I don't really need them? And I mean, it also varies person to person, some people, their body can break down carbs faster than others and what not! Okay, ill stop now, I was ranting a little from something someone said to me earlier! (people who arent on this diet, and people who have never struggled with their weight, just dont get it!!)

HAVE A GREAT OP DAY :)))

I averaged over 20 weeks, 1.75/lbs per week with no cheats. definitely on the lower side, but I lost it!

I am completely bummed and need a pick me up. I lost 4 lbs in week one of IP, just got weighed today for week two and I lost NOTHING!!! my weight was exactly the same as week one to the .6!!!! unbelievable. It actually brought a tear to my eye!! I have been completely following the protocol and if nothing else my calories have decreased greatly!! I'm losing hope in this diet... I'll have one more perfect week of dieting and decide what to do this friday when I get weighed in.

ugh. frustrating. :?:

Leslie, please don't give up, I am a very slow loser, but I am losing. I could not lose anything on WW. It is not a race, it is a process and I am 30lbs lighter, yes it took longer than others, but I am here! Stay the course!

I was drawn to IP because I read that women could lose an average of 4 pounds per week. I've been on for 18 weeks and I'm averaging about 2-1/2 pounds per week. This is better than I've done on other diets however so I'm not discouraged. And I do occasionally take small liberties so I guess a slower loss can be expected. I was recently able to get to 199 which was a huge milestone. I was on WW for months and could not break through 200.

Last time I checked my average weight loss was 3.25 pounds per week. Every month I set a 10 pound weight loss goal for me and so far I have lost about 12 to 13 pounds each month. I'm one happy camper.
