For you, this would amount to 1-3 lbs per week. Aim for 1-2. This will ensure that all the weight you loose will be fat, and not muscle, to ensure that your metabolism doesnt slow down. Also, if you are careful about how you lose it, you will have an easier time keeping the weight off. -------------- Your two most important minerals: Iron and Chalk. If you smoke or don’t wear your seatbelt, please don’t tell me the deadlift is dangerous.
