[Richard]

Been on you diet for 3 weeks. First week I lost 16lbs, second week 11lbs third week only 6 lbs. What am I doing wrong.

Hi Richard, and welcome to the forum. I would say you're doing everything right! Congratulations on losing 33 pounds in 3 weeks, that's amazing. The first few weeks are often the biggest loss per week, so it would be natural for it to decrease a bit as time passes, but 11 pounds per week average so far is great! If you think of Fat To Skinny as a lifestyle choice rather than a diet then you will be well on your way to a healthier you.

Also, you need to look at this as a lifestyle change... a permanent lifestyle change. It's not a temporary fix, like a DIET. We don't use the "D" word anymore! : )

Hi Richard welcome to the family! Hum.....you've lost 33 pounds in 3 weeks!!! You aren't doing anything wrong. The body is simply adjusting to your new weight. I would pay close attention to portion control now. You've shrunk a good bit and your body doesn't need as much food as it did just 3 weeks ago. Stay the course and visit this forum often for continued support...it's the key to success
