Question Posted Wednesday November 28 2007, 10:12 pm

Ok so i'm trying to lose weight but i have a question so here it goes whats is the maximum amount of weight i could lose in a week and month if i powerwalk for an hour a day which for me is usualy about 2 miles maybe more and i eat really healthy like organic foods and only drink water, milk, or some juice? also someone said that people who are overweight lose weight fast at first when they start doing that but as you have less fat to lose you lose weight slower if that makes sense is this true?

Yes. Overweight people hold a lot of water and loose fat, and it sheds off quickly at first. But then when they're like regular people trying to lose weight, they don't lose it as quickly, and they get frusturated and give up. That's why a lot of diets fail. The average healthy weight to lose for people losing weight to just be healthier, not because they're overweight is 1-2 pounds per week. So if you're overweight and dieting and training you'll lose more weight than that. Like on "The Biggest Loser" you'll notice they sometimes lose up to 10 pounds per week at first. Just go slow and ease into a new healthy lifestyle. You don't need to give up M&Ms, just eat them every so often and not a lot of them. And your healthy food is really good. Trying to limit your salt intake is one of the best things you can do, since most Americans eat 2.5 times more than the recommended amount. No soy sauce, remember though! : ) Hope I helped!

Yes, when you are overweight you lose OK for a while then tend to hit a plateau. They say the best thing for that is to change to a different exercise routine. Say for example, you power walk- switch to aerobics or something.

They say 4 pounds per week is the safest way to lose weight. It is healthier to lose just a little at a time, plus you run less of a risk of gaining it all back.
