This question was not answered by a nutritionist, however another user commented.
Answer:
i lost 6 lbs in the first week. i’ll warn you though, that you really really need to stick with it once you start in order to consistently lose AND keep it off. I was all pumped having lost the 6 lbs and stopped after the second week, considering it a nice ‘jump start’ and nothing more, planning to continue on my own using regular diet and excercise…well…i gained the 6 lbs back in the blink of an eye. (and wasnt even being ‘bad’, i was working out and eating healthy). my advice: just go with a regular routine diet where you watch your caloric intake, quicker and more effective in the long run!!
