At that weight it can be- the morbidly obese will lose up to 5% of their body weight the first month. So you could have lost up to 20 pounds- but it will not hold and you don't want it to. You should be eating the amount you will eat at your ideal body weight. So if you are 5'11' (guess)- thats about 190 or so. Go to mypyramid.gov for good advice.

well that depends on what kind of diet u were on? wether u were eating a healthy balanced diet and working out? or just starving urself?

But if u havent been eating a healthy balanced diet and have lost all that weight without working out or something then thats just ur water weight u've lost and not really 'FAT'....its important u clarify what kind of diet u were on.... some people have faster metabolism and they can lose alot of weight in a month and maybe u r one of those people :-)....

well for being 400 pounds you were very overweight
i would say keep doing what you are doing and keep losing weight
but do not starve yourself

that's good keep going

yups....

I am wondering what kind of diet you were on. I want to get the details immediately. I need to lose weight bad. PLEASE POST if you dont mind

it is healthy to lose 2-3 pounds a week.if you lose more than that you lose your mustles.
