I really hope your seeing a doctor regularly during this extreme weight loss because like everyones been saying, 50lbs in three weeks is not healthy.  If you plan on keeping it up, then at the very least check in with a doctor and make sure your body can handle it.  I'm betting you'd rather be fat and alive then skinny and dead.

Not to mention your gallbladder.  I had a friend on Atkins and her gallbladder literally exploded.

I've lost 37 pounds since Jan 1st of this year.  How?  A few ways:

1) Just eat less.  Smaller portion sizes.  Also, eat slower, give your brain a chance to catch up to your stomach.
2) Stay away from the junk food, especially fast food.  No more sodas.  No more mayo on my sandwich, etc.
3) Skim milk, low-fat cheese and lunchmeats, low calorie bread (45 kCal a slice)
4) Get off the couch!

Yeah, I lost 10-12lb and went down two sizes.

I started eating a little better and working out on a more regular basis 8 months ago.  I have gained 7-10 pounds.   :dunno
I assume it's muscle because my body fat is obviously lower and my belt doesn't feel tight anymore on the same notch.

I would think if you did lose 50 lbs that quick and plan on losing another 50 in a similar time frame that you will be looking for a plastic surgeon to remove that exra skin hanging off of you.  I know nothing about losing that kind of weight personally, but it doesn't sound right.   :blah:
