VERY good point. I forgot to even mention that. Very true, if you loose to much to fast you are burning muscle also. Slow and steady is always better. Remember it's not a race but a marathon.
This is about a live style change, not a fad where like 90% of the people they get big (mostly water weight/bloat) for a few months or a year then when you see them 3, 4+ years down the road they look like fat slobs. You dont want to be that guy...
