“Add a little exercise to the McDougall Program and, if you’re presently overweight, you can expect about half a pound of weight loss daily.”

Does 3.5 lbs per week seems high? (14 lbs per month, 84 lbs per year)

I would think 1/2-1 lb a week. Some weeks more. Some weeks none. But I don’t want to promise the stars here. It really is related to understanding the guidelines and doing them. It’s incredibly simple, but only works if done (no cheating). Good luck!
