How Long Did It Take You...
 

To lose 20 lbs?

Now it takes about 2-3 months, but I lost my first 20lbs very quickly because of water weight.

It took me 2 months and 5 days with the first 20. The second twenty was about 3 months.

I lost 30 pounds in two months when I first started. ;) Now it would take me about 20 months. :rolleyes:

It took me about 6 weeks to lose the first 20 pounds. I don't think I'm typical though - just lucky that my body responded really well to the changes I was making (I was also nursing, which can help some people - and I think it did and does help me with my loss).

I would say about 2 1/2 months or so.

2months

Bulletproof heart:
Congrats on your 25 lbs lost, so it took you 2 months?

When I first started? 2 months.

Thanks everyone for the replies, I am excited to lose my first 20 lbs!

I weigh myself every 2 or 3 or 4 weeks. It took me 17 weeks to lose MY FIRST 22 pounds, but that included the holidays when I did not do well.

I weighed weekly. At the end of 3 weeks I was down 19, and by week 4 it was 23 pounds lost. Things slowed down rather quickly after that though.

3.5 months

12 months. Results not typical, though!

I'm close to your start weight. Last March, it took me 2 months to lose 20 pounds. Now since I started again in January, I'm down 26 pounds in 9 weeks.
