What is a healthy weight loss per month?

I'm on a weight loss journey and seeing some results, but I want to make sure I'm losing weight in a healthy way. What is considered a healthy amount of weight loss per month? I want to avoid any crash diets.

With my PCOS, losing even 1-2 kgs a month is a huge win, though general targets are 2-4 kgs. Be very gentle with your body and don't compare your progress with others on social media.

Losing around 2 to 4 kilograms in a month is the safest and most sustainable pace for our bodies.

I lost 15 kgs over six months, averaging about 2.5 kgs a month. The secret is cutting out sugar, drinking enough water, and not chasing unrealistic fast results.

Losing 2 to 4 kgs a month is ideal. You can easily achieve this by doing a 45-minute brisk walk daily, provided your doctor clears you for regular exercise.

I once did a crash diet and lost 8 kgs in a month, which ended up ruining my gallbladder. Stick to a safe 2-3 kgs, and if you have sudden unexplained weight drops, get your thyroid checked immediately.
