Good luck with your weight loss!
I am glad that you found this thread as abercrmb's thread is the reason that I also believed that I could lose weight(at the beggining it was the fact that it only took 5months that appealed to me too).
I am not sure if you noticed but ambercrmb has not been on here since 2010, so you may not get a reply from her.
I was also inspired by this thread as were many others on here and have been successful in my own weight loss and nearly a year later I am still working at it.
If I can offer you any advice, It would be for you to not focus on the time it takes to lose weight, we are all different and have different metabolisms, lifestyles and goals etc.
If you can then try to focus more on a good balance of healthy eating and exercise, I assure you the weight will come off, but you have to keep at it, even if you have a week when you maintain/gain or even put weight on, just keep going.
If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.
Good luck
