I'm curious about everyone's monthly average weight loss, exercise routine and which medifast plan you are on, or were on in the past for you maintainers. I think others would also be interested to see the results so if you don't mind participating......please cut, paste and answer.
The end of my two months is tomorrow so I'll participate after I weigh in the morning.

Monthly average:

This is math and numbers!!!

I'll work on my answers and get back to you.......

[DonnaS]

Thanks T!

I'm going to weigh in on Saturday before I leave for vacation and change my figures since that is just one day from my actual two month anniversary. I hope I can post a 30 lb. loss. Of course I certainly don't expect a 14 to 15 lb. loss every month; I know that the less you have to lose the slower it goes.

[Grayson]

Monthly average: 12.5 (10 months)
5&1 or 6&0: 5&1
oz. of water per day: not sure, but well over 100; probably close to 130-140
lbs. you want to lose: I'd love to lose 10 more, but probably will have to wait until skin removal surgery; I can't lose much more than I have
exercise: started about 6 months in; now exercise vigorously every day to maintain (avg. 45 minutes on the exercise bike at 21-22 mph)

I went back and did the math counting my first three months on the program (couldn't do increments of 7-8-9 months on Fitday and my beginning losses weren't counted) and my monthly average from November 22 to July 22 is 9.3125 a month.

[DonnaS]

Thanks for all those replies; there are some nice average losses there.
