Everyone can have different results, depending on lots of factors. From the information thats online, you could expect APPX 1-2 lb loss per week. Anything more would be a bonus. Most importantly, follow your medical teams recommendations and try and get in as much exercise as possible. You'll hear quoted that 3500 calories equals a pound. However you can burn that or not eat that 3500 calories, SHOULD equal a one pound loss.
