looking for words of wisdom, and wondering just how long it has taken those of you that have met your goal, or are almost there?

I just bumped a thread for you "Ideal Protein Dieters: What is your average weight loss per week?"

There are a lot of responses there!

You and I have nearly the same start weight and same goal. So far it has taken me 14 weeks to lose 45 lbs. but you have to remember that everyone is different and it's virtually impossible to know how quickly you'll lose. Especially when we're all eating a different variety of packets, vegetables and do different amounts of physical things per day. Some are fast "losers", others slower depending on many issues. Hope this helps though!

I've lost 50 lbs in less than 5 months!! Very happy with the resuts!!
