A member asked:
I'm aiming to lose about 50 lbs by going to the gym almost daily. is going daily healthy and how much (max.) is healthy for me to lose weekly? thanks.
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Usually 1-2 lbs a wk: Losing 1-2 pounds a week, week after week, is a big achievement. One should ask his doctor first, to be sure the goals are safe to aim for. The amount of weight loss recommended does depend on the starting weight of the person.
