Yes but not safely: The hypothalamus "knows" your body weight and regulates metabolism to keep it steady. Losing more than 2 pounds per week can cause you to gain all the weight rapidly after you stop your regime. It is highly recommended that you follow a balanced diet and proper exercise in achieving your weight goal. Set an appointed with your doctor to help you start a proper weight loss program.

Not safely: Most people did not gain weight fast, therefore, unfortunately, you should not expect lose it fast either. Shoot for 1-2.5 lbs per week (4-10lbs per month) and lose weight safely and effectively by exercising more and eating healthier (while eating less and counting your calories) for best results.
