It could depend on your current weight, but I can attest that it is not unusual to lose 7 lbs. in a month by following MWL.

Certainly if you are 20 or 30 lbs. overweight (or more) you should be able to lose 7 lbs. in the first month. The longer you follow the WOE, and the lighter you become, the slower the weight loss becomes. That's normal.

I lost 7 pounds in the first week and I wasn't even over weight to start with. My BMI at that time was 21. I kept on losing weight for nine months till BMI was 17. Weight has stayed at that point for a year now. I do not do MWL and I do eat avocado olive muts and seeds and I use coconut milk regularly because I like creamy dishes.

So it is possible tp lose 7 pounds in a short time.

Oh, and when I go on vacation I usually gain Some weight as a result of off plan eating. I gain about 6, 7 pounds. When I come home and start eating normally, starch solution style, those pounds melt away in about one week.
