What is the ideal amount of weight to lose per month on a diet?
Answered By Editor
Generally, a safe weight loss is considered
to be two to four pounds per month. This is a
slow, gradual weightloss and will give your
body time to adjust to the changes in your
eating habits as well as changes to your
exercise.
If you starve yourself and force yourself to
lose weight, the body will gain weight back
the moment you quit your diet. On the other
hand, gradual loss will allow your body to
know how to interpret the changes in your
bodyweight and to not counter them.
When you first start dieting you may lose
more in the first month, but keep in mind
this is mostly water change in weight. After
the first month you will start to taper off.
The main thing is don't get discouraged by
the small number.
