1-2 kgs per month is considered healthy and sustainable. Slow and steady wins the race!
True well-being comes from balance, and this applies to weight loss too. A gentle, sustainable loss of 1-2 kgs per month is often advised by experts. It means your body is adjusting naturally, supported by healthy eating and perhaps some mindful movement like yoga and walking. Don't rush the process, just be consistent.
For healthy and sustainable weight loss, aiming for 1 to 2 kilograms per month is considered normal and effective. Anything more aggressive without medical supervision can be risky and often unsustainable in the long run. Focus on lifestyle changes, not quick fixes.
