In a healthy way? Yeah, 3lbs is about right, but that would include loss of (if any) muscle mass in a addition to fat. People looking to get into shape have pretty much proven that losing 1lb per week is ideal. Of course, if you're trying to lose 50 lbs, hell, that'd take a whole year!

Exactly, so why'd he bring it up?

How do you mean? Don't women have all of the rights to their body?

"either way, you're terminating this pregnancy."
