    you're currently averaging 3 lbs per week.. which is relatively healthy (considering that most dieters average 2 lbs per week).

    I think you should continue in this vein...

    Tho the increase (to 15 lbs per month over your current 12) is minimal (just under an additional lb per week).. one does not want too lose too much to fast... as the higher the overall total the higher the risk of increased muscle loss

    I'd add another 45 min session per week to your current regime (45 mins 6 days per week)

    Are you getting ready for a contest..or trying to meet a weight goal by a specific time?
