The time it takes to complete a medical weight loss program depends, among other things, on the patient's goals, which are usually set before the process begins. On average, patients lose 2 to 5 pounds per week. Some patients may experience slower weight loss and this is okay.  At this rate of about two pounds per week, patients typically see ten to twenty pounds of weight loss within the first two to four months. Of course, each patient is unique and has a different experience with the process. Medical weight loss programs are programs supervised by a doctor that primarily lose weight for people who are having trouble losing weight despite their best efforts.
