This depends on your individual circumstances. We advise against rapid weight loss as promised by diet pills and fad diets. Slower, steadier weight loss is the healthiest way to lose weight. That being said, you may shed pounds faster at the beginning of a weight loss program that involves reduced calorie intake and increased exercise. You may eventually reach a weight loss plateau, or gain muscle weight. Remember that you may lose inches but not lose much weight at some point in your program. We will help you through any rough patches.
