18 months is 72 weeks. Losing 50 pounds in that time is losing less than a
pound a week. That is very moderate. People posting to this group have
lost 2 pounds a week through changing their exercise and eating habits.

Why are people so concerned with rate of loss? It's not a race. 50 pounds
is nothing to sneeze at. So it took a year and a half. She did it very
easily too. Just drinking more water and eating less.

But the OP iis very obviously trolling. Could you drink 5 gallons of water
a day? I like water but that's ridiculous!

I agree, timing is not everything. My concern was she was thinking it was
extreme when it is not.
