    Wow that is incredible congrats on the success and I am sorry you are feeling like this right now. Try not to freak out I am sure your doctor will help put your fears at ease about things going too fast or that they will help you slow it down if need be. I know I felt like that at times and for me it was because I wasn't used to the new body I was finding as the fat came off. I hope things are going well for you and that this isnt a problem. Best wishes!

    I wouldn't think so. How do you FEEL is the more important question. Dizzy? Weak? I lost 50 in 3 months too - 71 pounds in 5 months.

    Do you have a nutritionist that you can call to run the numbers by, as well as your eating habits? I hope that this would bring you some peace and reassurance.

    Congrats on your success. The only thing I'd be worried about is losing my gallbladder. This can sometimes get overloaded from what I've read when the pounds fly off fast. But there are tests and drugs to help the gallbladder. I hope your docs can answer all of your questions.

    Sweet Honey, You are not losing to fast girl. I have lost 65 lbs. in 3 months. I have been at a stall for 2 weeks now and getting worried about not losing more. I know it would happen sooner or later. Relax girl and enjoy your loss!!!

    This may sound weird, but get down to your goal weight asap. I took my time getting there, but the old habits started to come back so it is hard to stay there. The earlier you get to goal I think the more not to go back or settle for anything less. Good Luck Linda
